This collection of essays is above all intended to pay tribute to the fact that while QM today is a refined and incredibly successful instrument, many issues concerning the internal consistency and the interpretation of this theory are still not nearly as well understood as they ought to be.
This course-based primer provides an introduction to Lie algebras and some of their applications to the spectroscopy of molecules, atoms, nuclei and hadrons.
Soon after the invention of the laser, a brand-new area of endeavour emerged after the discovery that powerful ultrashort (picosecond) light pulses could be extracted from some lasers.
These notes contain all the material accumulated over six years in Strasbourg to teach "e;Quantum Probability"e; to myself and to an audience of commutative probabilists.
Solid-State Laser Engineering is written from an industrialperspective and discusses in detail the characteristics,design, construction and practical problems of solid-statelasers.
This book is written from an industrial perspective and provides a detailed discussion of solid-state lasers, their characteristics, design and construction.
This volume covers aspects of Schr|dinger equation inversion for the purposeof determining interaction potentials in particle, nuclear and atomic physics from experimental data.
Ever since the invention of the laser itself, the spectroscopist has dreamed of lasers that could be tuned continuously over whatever set of resonances he wished to study.
Complex systems are ubiquitous, and practically all branches of science ranging from physics through chemistry and biology to economics and sociology have to deal with them.
Simple random walks - or equivalently, sums of independent random vari- ables - have long been a standard topic of probability theory and mathemat- ical physics.
Materials processing with lasers is a rapidly expanding field which is increasingly captivating the attention of scientists, engineers and manufacturers alike.
"e;Quantum Dynamics"e; is a major survey of quantum theory based on Walter Greiner's long-running and highly successful courses at the University of Frankfurt.

One intriguing aspect of physics is its dynamic and rapidly evolving nature; exciting new fields can become moribund within relatively few years, only to revive and grow again in a dramatic and expolisve manner in response to new developments.

In the past 10 to 15 years, the quantum leap inunderstanding of nonlinear dynamics has radically changedthe frame of reference of physicists contemplating suchsystems.
Diverse areas of physics and its applications deal with wave scattering at rough surfaces: optics, acoustics, remote sensing, radio astronomy, physics of solids, diffraction theory, radio and wave-propagation techniques, etc.
Graduate students who want to become familiar with advanced computational strategies in classical and quantum dynamics will find here both the fundamentals of a standard course and a detailed treatment of the time-dependent oscillator, Chern-Simons mechanics, the Maslov anomaly and the Berry phase, together with many worked examples throughout the text.
Four years aga Walter Thirring suggested to me that it would be desirable to have a book describing recent results of the "e;algebraic approach"e; to quantum field theory and statistical mechanics.
