Quantum Optics for Beginners
Autor Zbigniew Ficek, Mohamed Ridza Wahiddinen Limba Engleză Hardback – 22 mai 2014
This book assembles accounts of many phenomena related to or resulting from atomic correlations. The essential language of the book is in terms of density matrices and master equations that provide detailed theoretical treatments and experimental analysis of phenomena such as entanglement between atoms, spontaneously or externally induced atomic coherence, engineering of atomic correlations, storage and controlled transfer of correlations, and dynamics of correlated systems.

Recenzii
"Ficek and Wahiddin provide a comprehensive introduction to the principal ideas and methods of quantum optics. The crisp text is complemented with a solid set of problems to exercise the beginner and a good sampling of references."
Prof. Howard Carmichael, The University of Auckland, New Zealand
"Most beginners in quantum optics will not have the privilege I had of being taught the subject personally by Dr. Zbigniew Ficek, but fortunately they can now read an excellent book that captures his invaluable ability to present any new topic from several different conceptual angles."
Prof. Terence Rudolph, Imperial College, London
"The book Quantum Optics for Beginners covers broad range of topics in the rapidly developing areas of research, giving an elegant and comprehensive presentation of the particular subject, illustrating it with detailed examples and supplementing with a number of exercises. This is the book I would like to have at hand."
Prof. Ryszard Tanaś, Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznan
"The book is a welcome addition to the extended literature on quantum optics since it is addressed to newcomers in this exciting and continuously developing field. A particularly useful feature of the book is the systematic effort of the authors to highlight the connection of the presented material with experimental results and the fundamentals of research topics that emerged as particularly promising and rapidly developing in recent years."

Descriere
This graduate-level text discusses from first principles the background theory of various effects of quantum optics, introduces students to the main ideas of quantum optics as clearly as possible, and teaches the mathematical methods used by researchers working in the fields of quantum and atom optics. It contains numerous valuable derivations and calculations that are often hard to find in scientific articles and other texts on quantum optics. The book provides a useful starting point for those interested in learning more.
