Advances in Multi-photon Processes and Spectroscopy Vol 1

Brian Culshaw

Published Feb 1, 1986• 12 citations
Publisher

Abstract

S H Lin (ed) 1984 Singapore: World Scientific v + 514 pp price £65.50 ISBN 9971 966 17 4 This book consists of six contributed chapters from different authors and as such is yet another example of a specialist introductory text which exhibits the customary advantages and flaws of multiple authorship. My viewpoint on the book is as an interested layman with potential technical applications for multi-photon phenomena.

Multiphoton lonization of Atoms

W R Newell

S L Chin and P Lambropoulos (eds) 1984 Orlando: Academic xii + 272 pp price £42 ISBN 0 12 172780 7 This multi-author book gives a good survey of current work and developments in what is an expanding research field. Although the content of each chapter reflects the personal bias of the author the literature is adequately surveyed, and a good balance is provided between theory and experiment.

Multiphoton Processes

Colyn Grey Morgan

J H Eberly and P Lambropoulos (eds) 1978 Chichester: John Wiley xx + 418 pp price £17.60 The 29 invited papers presented at the 1977 international conference on multiphoton processes are collected together to form this book. They are a comprehensive set of authoritative reviews by acknowledged experts on many aspects of one of the most exciting and active areas of physics – the interaction of radiation with matter.

Laser cooling and trapping of atoms

Davıd L. Andrews, David S. Bradshaw

This book provides a broad introductory survey of this remarkable field, aiming to establish and clearly differentiate its physical principles, and also to provide a snapshot portrait of many of the most prominent current applications. Primary emphasis is placed on developing an understanding of the fundamental photonic origin behind the mechanism that operates in each type of effect. To this end, the first few chapters introduce and develop core theory, focusing on the physical significance and source of the most salient parameters, and revealing the detailed interplay between the key material and optical properties. Where appropriate, both classical and photonic (quantum mechanical) representations are discussed. The number of equations is purposely kept to a minimum, and only a broad background in optical physics is assumed. With copious examples and illustrations, each of the subsequent chapters then sets out to explain and exhibit the main features and uses of the various distinct types of mechanism that can be involved in optical nanomanipulation, including some of the very latest developments. To complete the scene, we also briefly discuss applications to larger, biological particles. Overall, this book aims to deliver to the non-specialist an amenable introduction to the technically more advanced literature on individual manipulation methods. Full references to the original research papers are given throughout, and an up-to-date bibliography is provided for each chapter, which directs the reader to other selected, more specialised sources.

E R Pike and Sarben Sarkar (eds) 1986 Bristol: Adam Hilger xii + 587 pp price £29.50 (I0P members' price £23.60) ISBN 0 85274 577 X Quite simply this is the best volume of conference proceedings on quantum optics to appear for several years. It stems from a symposium held in Malvern in December 1985 which was attended by most of the big names in the field.

Quantum Physics

G. Barton

Stephen Gasiorowicz Chichester: J Wiley 1974 pp xiii + 514 price £9 Though designed as an introductory book, and clearly and agreeably presented, the overall flavour is that of a more advancedtext. The reviewer, an admirer of the author's previous book on elementary particles, suspects that the mix here was most stimulating in the lecture course from which the book springs, but that it is less appropriate to a textbook.

Introduction to Quantum Statistical Mechanics

GERALD RICKAYZEN

N N Bogolubov and N N Bogolubov Jr 1982 Singapore: World Scientific viii + 229 pp price £22.50 (£13 paperback) ISBN 9971 950 31 6 Hdbk, 9971 950 04 9 Pbk This book is based on lectures given at the Moscow State University and it is difficult to see at what readership it is aimed. It treats two disparate subjects, quantum statistical mechanics and second quantisation which, although they can be linked, are largely kept apart.
