Beschreibung
The is is the first book on the market on the rapidly developing topic of atom optics, i.e., the manipulation of atoms by light. This research has led to atom cooling and trapping (for which the 1998 Nobel Prize in physics was awarded), Bose-Einstein condensation, and holds great promise for revolutionary developments in the field of lasers.

From the reviews:
"The book is well laid out and elegantly written."-The Physicist
"Atom optics today has reached maturity: It has become both wave (coherent) and nonlinear atom optics. Of course that expansion required generalization in a new book. Pierre Meystre has taken just such a generalist approach in his timely ATOM OPTICS. His were the pioneering works in atom optics; to get information from the first explorer is always most valuable to the reader … Recommend[ed] to all strata of the physics community.”

"Pierre Meystre has taken … a generalist approach in his timely Atom Optics. His were the pioneering works in atom optics; to get information from the first explorer is always most valuable to the reader. … The circle of potential readers of the book is very wide – from graduate students to professors … . I therefore recommend it to all strata of the physics community." (Vladilen Letokhov, Physics Today, November, 2002)
"Pierre Meystre is a theoretical physicist at the University of Arizona. His book entitled ‘Atom Physics’ is the first book published on the subject. … This book is well laid out and elegantly written. I believe that this book, combined with Hal Metcalf’s ‘Laser Cooling and Trapping’, forms an excellent introduction at a postgraduate level to atom optics." (A. G. Truscott, The Physicist, Vol. 39 (4), 2002)
