Very brief summaries are given on three research topics. Electron impact elastic, excitation, and total cross sections for K were investigated by using elaborate Cl target wave functions in the close-coupling approximation. Photoionization cross sections from ground-state Na were calculated near the 2s[sup 2]2p[sup 5]3s and 2s2p[sup 6]3s inner-shell thresholds; also, the photoionization cross sections of excited 3p [sup 2]P[sup o] and 3d [sup 2]D states were calculated with the R-matrix methodology near the 2s2p[sup 6]3s thresholds. A numerical approach was developed to calculate the charge transfer matrix elements for ion-atom(ion) collisions; this was used for the proton-hydrogen collision problem as an illustration.
