The aim ofTheoretical Atomic Physics remains to provide the reader with a solid foundation of this sort of advanced quantum mechanics. In preparing the third edition I have again tried to do justice to the rapid development of the ?eld. I have included references to important new work whenever this seemed appropriate and easy to do. Chapter 1 now includes a section on processes involving (wave packets of) continuum states and also an expanded treatment of the semiclassical approximation. Chapter 3 begins with a section illuminating the characteristic di?erences in the near-threshold properties of long-ranged and shorter-ranged potentials, and the ?rst section of Chap. 4 contains a more elaborate discussion of scattering lengths. As a further “special topic” in Chap. 5 there is a section describing some aspects of atom optics, including discusions of the interactions of atoms with material surfacesandwithlight?elds. Theappendixonspecialmathematicalfunctions has been slightly expanded to accommodate a few results that I repeatedly found to be useful. I am grateful to many colleagues who continue to inspire me with num- ous discussions involving atomic physics, quantum mechanics and semiclas- cal connections, in particular Robin Cot ˆ ´ e at the University of Connecticut, Manfred Kleber at the Technical University Munich and Jan-Michael Rost at the Max–Planck–Institute for Complex Systems in Dresden.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2010-02-12\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783642065033\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/3-540-29278-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 506\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Berlin Heidelberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47667621724300,"sku":"9783642065033","price":80.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783642065033.jpg?v=1776460225","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783642065033","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
