Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Scattering theory provides a framework for understanding the scattering of waves and particles. This book presents a simple physical picture of diffractive nuclear scattering in terms of semi-classical trajectories, illustrated throughout with examples and case studies. Trajectories in a complex impact parameter plane are discussed, and it stresses the importance of the analytical properties of the phase shift function in this complex impact plane in the asymptotic limit. Several new rainbow phenomena are also discussed and illustrated. Written by Nobel Prize winner Roy J. Glauber, and Per Osland, an expert in the field of particle physics, the book illustrates the transition from quantum to classical scattering, and provides a valuable resource for researchers using scattering theory in nuclear, particle, atomic, and molecular physics. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core.

22.5 cm. [315]-414 pp. Printed wrappers. WITH 3 sheets of yellow-lined paper, containing notes in manuscript by Abraham Pais. Very good. Abstract: After a general discussion of the simple problem of elastic scattering by a static potential where some of the familiar methods of treating the problem and certain very useful theorems regarding the scattering amplitudes are reviewed, the high-energy approximation is developed and applied to problems of gradually increasing complexity. Finally, the collisions involving many-body systems are discussed.

He was a member of the 1941 graduating class of the Bronx High School of Science, and matriculated at Harvard University. After his sophomore year he was recruited to work on the Manhattan Project, where (at the age of 18) he was one of the youngest scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory. After two years involved in calculating critical mass for the atom bomb, he returned to Harvard completing his bachelor's in 1946 and PhD in 1949. Currently, he is the Mallinckrodt Professor of Physics at Harvard University and Adjunct Professor of Optical Sciences at the University of Arizona. Glauber was jointly awarded the 2005 Nobel Prize in Physics "for his contribution to the quantum theory of optical coherence". In this work, published in 1963, he created a model for photodetection and explained the fundamental characteristics of different types of light, such as laser light and light from light bulbs. His theories are widely used in the field of quantum optics. He currently serves on the National Advisory Board of the Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation, the research arms of Council for a Livable World. Glauber has also received many honors for his research, including the Albert A. Michelson Medal from the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia (1985), the Max Born Award from the Optical Society of America (1985), the Dannie Heineman Prize for Mathematical Physics from the American Physical Society (1996), and the 2005 Nobel Prize in Physics. Professor Glauber was awarded the 'Medalla de Oro del CSIC' ('CSIC's Gold Medal') in a ceremony held in Madrid, Spain. He was elected a Foreign Member of the Royal Society as well (ForMemRS) in 1997.

Lancaster, American Institute of Physics, 1963. Lex8vo. Volume 130, 15 June, No. 6, of "The Physical Review", Second Series. Entire volume offered in the original printed blue wrappers. Previous owner's stamp to front wrapper. Wear to spine and extremities. Internally fine and clean. Pp. 2529-38. [Entire issue: Pp. 2135-2622]. First publication of this seminal paper in which the first thorough development of the quantum theory of optical coherence was presented. The present paper led directly to Glauber being awarded the Nobel Prize in physics in 2005 "for his contribution to the quantum theory of optical coherence". His theories are today widely used in the field of quantum optics."After the discovery of the maser and the laser in the sixties new ideas for quantum effects of the radiation field were in the air. However, there was no theory for their observation. It was only in 1963 that Roy [Glauber] had developed the quantum theory of optical coherence [in the present paper]. Here the concept of coherence state plays a central role. Coherent states had been proposed for the first time by Erwin Schrödinger in order to show that a wavepacket needs not always to be bound to spread. The coherent state became the crucial tool for Roy's theory of optical coherence. In particular, he could show that for coherent fields all correlation functions factorize." (Scully. Quantum theory of optical coherence. 2009. P. xv.).Glauber's work was essential for understanding and the further development of the laser.
