Overview
Based on a NATO Advanced Summer Institute, this volume discusses physical models, mathematical formalisms, experimental techniques, and applications for ultrafast dynamics of quantum systems. These systems are used in laser optics, spectroscopy, and utilize monochromaticity, spectral brightness, coherence, power density, and tunability of laser sources.Editorials
Booknews
Non-equilibrium phonon effects, the evolution of excitations at surfaces, the dynamics of electrons in semiconductors and metals, rapid conformational changes in molecules, and the optical control of the quantum states of molecules and solids are among the phenomena addressed by the lectures, long and short seminars, and abstracts of poster papers. The 15 lectures include treatments of time-resolved molecular spectroscopy and molecular dynamics, laser sources for ultrafast spectroscopy, surface phonons and their role in ultrafast phenomena, quasiparticles and quasimomentum, and symmetries and hidden dimensions as steps toward unification in particle physics. Reproduced from typescripts, several double spaced. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.Book Details
