Spectroscopic Probes of Quantum Matter

An Introduction

by Dr Christophe Berthod ...

Series series IOP Expanding Physics
Contemporary understanding of matter is based on the quantum theory, which envisions large collections of particles interacting with each other and with their environment. Spectroscopic probes based, for instance, on light, change the environment and trigger a collective response of the particles. This book, based on a graduate-level course, explains the underpinnings of many-body quantum theory ... Read more
