Synopsis

Intended mainly for experimentalists, this book discusses in detail the many advances in optical physics made over the last 25 years. The author uses classical or semi-classical calculations wherever possible to introduce the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with free atoms. Topics discussed include the spontaneous emission of radiation; stimulated transitions and the properties of gas and tunable dye lasers; and the physics and applications of resonance fluorescence, optical double resonance, optical pumping, and atomic beam magnetic resonance experiments. Favorably reviewed in its hardcover edition, physicists from a variety of fields will find this reissue as timely now as it was when first published in 1977.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book discusses many advances in optical physic, and is aimed at advanced undergraduates taking courses in atomic physics, or graduate students in the fields of lasers, astrophysics, and physical chemistry. The book is intended mainly for experimentalists, and the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with free atoms is introduced using classical or semi-classical calculations wherever possible. Topics discussed include the spontaneous emission of radiation, stimulated transitions and the properties of gas and turnable dye lasers, and the physics and applications of resonance fluorescence, optical double resonance, optical pumping, and atomic beam magnetic resonance experiments.

Revue de presse

The academic worth of this book is already well established...the book certainly offers substantial added value to the novice. The book is a handy reference for all. (The Higher Education Academy)

Corney's book has much to offer. (Physics Today)

The book will be of great value: to undergraduates, to beginning graduate students, even to atomic theorists. (Nature)
