Charged Particle Traps: Physics And Techniques Of Charged Particle Field Confinement (springer Series On Atomic, Optical, And Plasma Physics)

Springer Series on atomic, optical, and plasma physics 37 Springer Series on atomic, optical, and plasma physics The Springer Series on Atomic, Optical, and Plasma Physics covers in a comprehensive manner theory and experiment in the entire f ield of atoms and molecules and their interaction with electromagnetic radiation. Books in the series provide a rich source of new ideas and techniques with wide applications in f ields such as chemistry, materials science, astrophysics, surface science, plasma technology, advanced optics, aeronomy, and engineering. Laser physics is a particular connecting theme that has provided much of the continuing impetus for new developments in the f ield. The purpose of the series is to cover the gap between standard undergraduate textbooks and the research literature with emphasis on the fundamental ideas, methods, techniques, and results in the f ield. 27 Quantum Squeezing By P.D.
