OverviewThis book provides a solid pedagogical background in the techniques used in quantum optics, with an emphasis on open quantum systems. Suitable for undergraduates as a second semester quantum mechanics course or first-year graduate students, this book begins with a short summary of quantum mechanics and contains physics of open systems and their application to light/matter interactions. Written in a simplified manner and classroom tested, this book provides the fundamentals of quantum optics and includes recent developments in the field. Key Features Solid introduction to the key features of the field Excellent first exposure to nonequilibrium quantum statistical mechanics Developed from 30 years of teaching Includes recent developments in the field In this book, some of themathematical fundamentals of quantumoptics are introduced in a way to be understandable and usable by senior undergraduate and first-year graduate students. The amount of material discussed is huge; one can find the definition of all kinds of states including squeezed and cat states. The typographical presentation is very good and some figures are in colour. The book is available in e-version as well as printed with a hard cover. I found a very few misprints and believe its reading can be very useful to people who already know about the subject and wish for a short reminder of it.Mario Bertolotti 2021 Contemporary Physics, Taylor & Francis Group Full Product DetailsAuthor: Perry Rice (Miami University, USA)Publisher: Institute of Physics Publishing Imprint: Institute of Physics Publishing Dimensions: Width: 17.80cm , Height: 1.40cm , Length: 25.40cm Weight: 0.633kg ISBN: 9780750317115ISBN 10: 0750317116 Pages: 237 Publication Date: 07 September 2020 Audience: Professional and scholarly , Professional and scholarly , Professional & Vocational , Professional & Vocational Format: Hardback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print  This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.

Mario Bertolotti 2021 Contemporary Physics, Taylor & Francis Group * Contemporary Physics * Author InformationPerry Rice earned a BS in physics at Wright State University in 1981. After two years in industry, he went to graduate school and earned a PhD in physics at the University of Arkansas in 1988. He went on to become a professor of physics at Miami University for 30 years, and most recently is a senior research scientist at Azimuth Corporation. His research has been primarily in quantum optics and physics pedagogy, with specialties in cavity/waveguide quantum electrodynamics, nonclassical light, strongly coupled atom-field systems, quantum statistical mechanics, and computational methods including quantum trajectory theory.
