Abstract
The coupling of nonconforming finite element and boundary element methods w as established in Part I of this paper, where quasi-optimal a priori error estimates are provided. In the second part, we establish sharp a posteriori error estimates and so justify adaptive mesh-refining algorithms for the e fficient numerical treatment of transmission problems with the Laplacian in unbounded domains.
