Methods in Theoretical Quantum Optics

Zusatztext The reader will find here a very clear presentation of material not readily found elsewhere. Postgraduate students of quantum optics will find this work to be of the greatest utility... Care has been taken to present quite difficult topics in the simplest and most straightforward way; and yet the treatment is concise and focused... Experienced researchers will find that this text is a most convenient handbook of techniques, and will want it close to their elbow. Informationen zum Autor Dr Stephen M.

It deals with the physical assumptions which lead to the models and approximations employed, but the text is meant to give a firm grounding in those techniques needed to derive analytical solutions to problems. Based on teachings by the authors, most of the text has been tested on students. Zusammenfassung This work presents the mathematical methods widely used by workers in the field of quantum optics. It deals with the physical assumptions which lead to the models and approximations employed, but the main purpose of the text is to give a firm grounding in those techniques needed to derive analytical solutions to problems.
