Atomic Physics Methods in Modern Research: Selection of Papers Dedicated to Gisbert Zu Putlitz on the Occasion of His 65th Birthday: Vol 499 (Lecture Notes in Physics) - Tapa dura

Reseña del editor

Atomic physics has played a central role in the development of modern physics. Progress was based on newly invented scientific methods and experimental tools and today these techniques are successfully employed in a wide variety of highly active areas in modern research, extending from investigations of most fundamental interactions in physics to experiments related to topics in applied sciences and technical aspects. With steadily increasing importance they are found in areas well outside of classical atomic physics in fields such as nuclear and particle physics, metrology, physics of condensed matter and surfaces, physical chemistry, chemistry, medicine and environmental research. This book gives a thorough survey of the methods and techniques in key experiments of interdisciplinary research.
