This century has seen the development of technologies for
manipulating and controlling matter and light at the level of
individual photons and atoms, a realm in which physics is fully
quantum-mechanical. The dominant experimental technology is the
laser, and the theoretical paradigm is quantum optics.The Quantum
World of Ultra-Cold Atoms and Light is a trilogy, which presents
the quantum optics way of thinking and its applications to quantum
devices. This book - 'Ultra-Cold Atoms' - provides a theoretical
treatment of ultra-cold Bosons and Fermions and their interactions
with electromagnetic fields in a form consistent with the first two
books in the trilogy.The central concept is the quantum stochastic
paradigm, formulated for cold collision physics. For Bosons, this
yields a suite of techniques; versions of the stochastic
Gross-Pitaevskii equation, using which a wide range of dynamic and
thermal properties are formulated.The eBook editions of the
'Quantum World Trilogy' feature an extensive system of hyperlinks
for ease of cross reference within the books, as well as links to
the other books in the trilogy. In the section Viewing the eBooks
we explain how these links work, and give some advice on
appropriate pdf viewer applications.

World of Ultra-Cold Atoms and Light is a trilogy, which presents
the quantum optics way of thinking and its applications to quantum
devices. This book - The Physics of Quantum-Optical Devices -
provides a comprehensive treatment of theoretical quantum optics.
It covers applications to the optical manipulation of the quantum
states of atoms, laser cooling, continuous measurement, quantum
computers and quantum processors, superconducting systems and
quantum networks. The subject is consistently formulated in terms
of quantum stochastic techniques, and a systematic and thorough
development of these techniques is a central part of the book.
There is also a compact overview of the ideas of quantum
information theory.The main aim of the book is to present the
theoretical techniques necessary for the understanding of quantum
optical devices, with special attention to those devices used in
quantum information processing and quantum simulation. Although
these techniques were developed originally for the optical regime,
they are also applicable to electromagnetic radiation from the
microwave realm to the ultra-violet, and for atomic systems,
Josephson junction systems, quantum dots and nano-mechanical
systems.

World of Ultra-Cold Atoms and Light is a trilogy, which presents
the quantum optics way of thinking and its applications to quantum
devices. This book - Foundations of Quantum Optics - provides an
introductory text on the theoretical techniques of quantum optics,
containing the elements of what one needs to teach, learn, and
"think" about quantum optics. There is a particular emphasis on the
classical and quantum stochastic methods which have come to
dominate the field.Book II will cover applications to quantum
devices, such as quantum computers and simulators, and will include
the more advanced techniques necessary to describe non-classical
light fields. Book III will cover the field of ultra-cold atoms,
for which the quantum-optical paradigm has proved to be highly
applicable for quantitative work.
