Lasers and Their Application to the Observation of Bose-Einstein Condensates
Morgan & Claypool Publishers (Verlag)
978-1-64327-697-7 (ISBN)
The first part of this book overviews the physics of lasers and describes some of the more common types of lasers and their applications.
Applications of lasers include CD/DVD players, laser printers and fiber optic communication devices. Part II of this book describes the phenomenon of Bose-Einstein condensation. The experimental techniques used to create a Bose-Einstein condensate provide an interesting and unconventional application of lasers; that is, the cooling and confinement of a dilute gas at very low temperature.
Richard A. Dunlap received a BS in Physics from Worcester Polytechnic Institute, an AM in Physics from Dartmouth College and a PhD in Physics from Clark University. He currently holds an appointment as Research Professor in the Department of Physics and Atmospheric Science at Dalhousie University.His previous books include: Experimental Physics: Modern Methods, The Golden Ratio and Fibonacci Numbers, An Introduction to the Physics of Nuclei and Particles, Sustainable Energy, Novel Microstructures for Solids, Particle Physics, and The Moessbauer Effect.
