Optical Angular Momentumby L. Allen
CRC Press 2003; US$ 149.95This volume brings together research papers in the field of optical angular momentum. Each chapter begins with an introduction from the editors outlining the development of the subject and putting each paper into context. more...
Introduction to Quantum Opticsby Harry Paul; Igor Jex
Cambridge University Press 2004; US$ 72.00This textbook provides a physical understanding of what photons are and of their properties and applications. Special emphasis is made in the text to entangled photon pairs which exhibit quantum mechanical correlations over manifestly macroscopic distances. Such photon pairs make possible such exciting techniques as teleportation and quantum cryptography. more...

Quantum Mechanics in a Nutshellby Gerald D. Mahan
Princeton University Press 2008; US$ 85.00Covering the fundamentals as well as many special topics of current interest, this is the most concise, up-to-date, and accessible graduate-level textbook on quantum mechanics available. Written by Gerald Mahan, a distinguished research physicist and author of an acclaimed textbook on many-particle physics, Quantum Mechanics in a Nutshell is the distillation of many years' teaching experience. Emphasizing the use of quantum mechanics to describe actual quantum systems such as atoms and solids, and rich with interesting applications, the book proceeds from solving for the properties of a single particle in potential; to solving for two particles (the helium atom); to addressing many-particle systems. Applications include electron gas, magnetism,... more...
Scattering of Photons by Many-Electron Systemsby Alexey N. Hopersky; Victor A. Yavna
Springer 2010; US$ 129.00This book deals with quantum physical calculations of anomalous scattering of photons by bound electrons. The main attention is paid to studies of the process of photon scattering in the energy range of deep levels of such many-electron systems as atoms, atomic ions and simple molecules. more...
