Cold and Ultracold Collisions in Quantum Microscopic and Mesoscopic Systems
Editorial Reviews
Review
'... the strength of the book is in its references - over 450 of them, which admirable covers the field ... the book provides a comprehensive overview and a source of original references for researchers in the field.' Contemporary Physics
Book Description
This book describes collisions between atoms that have been cooled to extremely low temperatures by optical and evaporative cooling techniques. John Weiner reviews the elements of the quantum theory of scattering, and summarizes the theory and experimental techniques of optical cooling and trapping. He also describes applications to precision spectroscopy, the determination of atomic properties, control of inelastic collisions by laser fields, and the manipulation of Bose-Einstein condensates (mesoscopic quantum systems).
