Much of our understanding of physics in the last 30-plus years has
come from research on atoms, photons, and their interactions.
Collecting information previously scattered throughout the
literature, Modern Atomic Physics provides students with one
unified guide to contemporary developments in the field.
Much of our understanding of physics in the last 30-plus years has
come from research on atoms, photons, and their interactions.
Collecting information previously scattered throughout the
literature, Modern Atomic Physics provides students with one
unified guide to contemporary developments in the field. After
reviewing metrology and preliminary material, the text explains
core areas of atomic physics. Important topics discussed include
the spontaneous emission of radiation, stimulated transitions and
the properties of gas, the physics and applications of resonance
fluorescence, coherence, cooling and trapping of charged and
neutral particles, and atomic beam magnetic resonance experiments.
Covering standards, a different way of looking at a photon,
stimulated radiation, and frequency combs, the appendices avoid
jargon and use historical notes and personal anecdotes to make the
topics accessible to non-atomic physics students. Written by a
leader in atomic and optical physics, this text gives a
state-of-the-art account of atomic physics within a basic quantum
mechanical framework. It shows students how atomic physics has
played a key role in many other areas of physics.
