This graduate-level text employs a formal, classical viewpoint to
survey the fundamentals of quantum optics. Its coverage includes
the quantum theory of partial coherence and the nature of the
relations between classical and quantum theories of coherence.
Students and professional physicists interested in intensity
interferometry, photon counting correlations, and lasers will find
this volume extremely helpful.
Topics include partially coherent light, photoelectric counting
distributions, dynamical determination of statistical description,
and equations of motion and coherent-state representation of the
electromagnetic field. Additional subjects encompass quantum theory
of optical correlation phenomena, special state of radiation
fields, and intensity interferometry in quantum optics. The text
offers particularly complete treatments of properties of the
coherent states and of the "diagonal" representations for
statistical states. These methods are applied to studies of
coherence, coincident counting rates, and counting distributions
for a number of physically significant states, including thermal
and laser-like fields.
