Up-to-Date Coverage of Stable and Accurate Frequency Standards The
Quantum Physics of Atomic Frequency Standards: Recent Developments
covers advances in atomic frequency standards (atomic clocks) from
the last several decades. It explains the use of various
techniques, such as laser optical pumping, coherent population
trapping, laser cooling, and electromagnetic and optical trapping,
in the implementation of classical microwave and optical atomic
frequency standards. The book first discusses improvements to
conventional atomic frequency standards, highlighting the main
limitations of those frequency standards and the physical basis of
the limitations. It then describes how advances in the theory and
applications of atomic physics have opened new avenues in frequency
standards. The authors go on to explore the research and
development of new microwave and optical frequency standards before
presenting the results in frequency stability and accuracy achieved
with these new frequency standards. They also illustrate the
application of atomic clocks in metrology, telecommunications,
navigation, and other areas and give some insight into future work.
Building on the success of the previous two volumes, this
up-to-date, in-depth book examines the vast improvements to atomic
clocks that have occurred in the last 25 years. The improved
stability and accuracy enable the verification of physical concepts
used in fundamental theories, such as relativity, as well as the
stability of fundamental constants intrinsic to those theories.
CHOICE Recommended Title, June 2019 Brought together in one focused
and exclusive treatment, this book provides an elementary
introduction to the important role and use of the least action
principle and the resulting Lagrange's equations in the analysis of
the laws that govern the universe. It is an ideal complimentary
resource to accompany undergraduate courses and textbooks on
classical mechanics. Features: Uses mathematics accessible to
beginners Brings together the Principle of Least Action, Lagrange's
equations, and variational principles in mechanics in one cohesive
text Written in a clear and easy-to-understand manner

In this book the author gives a comprehensive picture of the
physical laws that appear to regulate the functioning of the
Universe from the atomic to the cosmic world. The book offers a
description of the main fields of physics - classical physics,
relativity, quantum mechanics and particle physics - as they are
applied to the atomic world and the cosmos to describe how the
whole Universe has evolved to the present state. The description
concentrates on the essentials, describing our present knowledge of
those physical laws and outlining our limitations in understanding
the whole picture. This is done essentially without equations,
except for a few important ones. The text includes a short Annex
for mathematically inclined readers who wish to see how the
physical principles and laws expressed in words can be visualized
in the language of mathematics, but the book can be read without
referring to that Annex. Also, The Universe explains in depth those
laws and outlines their limitations. The author, however, does this
in an accessible language that should be understandable to
non-specialists. In particular, he occasionally uses two young
characters placed in various situations to explain the physics
involved in those situations by means of their observations. The
author uses also numerous clear pictures and graphics that make the
text more easily comprehensible.
