Rather different problems can be lumped together under the general
term 'laser control of atoms and molecules'. They include the laser
selection of atomic and molecular velocities for the purpose of
Doppler-free spectroscopy, laser control of the position and
velocity of atoms (i.e. laser trapping and cooling of atoms), and
laser control of atomic and molecular processes (ionization,
dissociation) with a view of detecting single atoms and molecules
and particularly separating isotopes and nuclear isomers. Over the
last decades the principal problems posed have been successfully
solved, and many of them have evolved remarkably in the subsequent
investigations of the international research community. For
example, the solution of the problem of laser cooling and trapping
of atoms has given birth to the new field of the physics of
ultracold matter, i.e. quantum atomic and molecular gases. The
laser non-coherent control of uni-molecular processes has found an
interesting extension in the field of laser coherent control of
molecules. The concept of laser control of position has been
successfully demonstrated with microparticles (optical tweezers),
concurrently with investigations into atomic control. The laser
photo-ionization of molecules on surfaces has led to the
development of novel techniques of laser-assisted mass spectrometry
of macromolecules, and so on. The aim of this book is to review
these topics from a unified or 'coherent' point of view. It will be
useful for many readers in various fields of laser science and its
applications.
