With contributions from leading experts in quantum systems, this title provides an overview of the range of quantum dynamics, exploring their use and exotic behaviors. It covers specific subjects of quantum dynamics with an emphasis on simple systems where few atoms or electrons are involved. It is suitable for graduate students and physicists.
