Product Description: This work focuses on fundamental theoretical and experimental aspects of relativistic beam physics, recoil, and cooling phenomena in atomic and ion beams and traps, emphasizing coherence and collective effects. The physics of atomic laser and free electron laser, and the development of a bridge between them through the mechanism of the so-called recoil induced gain mechanism, is also examined, as are the links between relativistic beam physics and atomic laser physics...read more

Product Description: This volume focuses on the physics of complex systems and provides both an overview of the field and a more detailed examination of those topics within the field that are currently of interest to researchers.

Product Description: This volume contains the lectures presented at the summer school, "Diagnostic Tools for the Atmosphere". The intention this time was to address a number of both experimental techniques and methods for the data treatment introduced in the last ten years or so in different fields of the atmospheric sciences...read more
