| Zusammenfassung: | "Covering some of the most exciting trends in quantum optics: quantum entanglement, teleportation, and levitation, this textbook is ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate students. The book journeys through the vast field of quantum optics following a single theme: light in media. A wide range of subjects are covered, from the force of the quantum vacuum to astrophysics, from quantum measurements to black holes." "Ideas are explained in detail and formulated so that students with little prior knowledge of the subject can follow them. Each chapter ends with several short questions followed by a more detailed homework problem, designed to test the reader and show how the ideas discussed can be applied."--Jacket |

Cambridge, UK : Cambridge University Press, 2010. 1 online resource (xii, 277 pages) : illustrations text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references (pages 262-273) and index. Introduction: A note to the reader ; Quantum theory -- Quantum field theory of light: Light in media ; Light modes ; Zero-point energy and Casimir force -- Simple quantum states of light: The electromagnetic oscillator ; Single-mode states ; Uncertainty and squeezing -- Quasiprobability distributions: Wigner presentation ; Other quasiprobability distributions -- Simple optical instruments: Beam splitter ; Detection -- Irreversible processes: Lindbald's theorem ; Loss and again ; Continuous quantum measurements -- Entanglement: Parametric amplifier ; Polarization correlations -- Horizons: Minkowski space ; Accelerated observers ; Moving media -- Appendix A: Stress of the quantum vacuum -- Appendix B: State reconstruction in quantum mechanics. "Covering some of the most exciting trends in quantum optics: quantum entanglement, teleportation, and levitation, this textbook is ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate students. The book journeys through the vast field of quantum optics following a single theme: light in media. A wide range of subjects are covered, from the force of the quantum vacuum to astrophysics, from quantum measurements to black holes." "Ideas are explained in detail and formulated so that students with little prior knowledge of the subject can follow them. Each chapter ends with several short questions followed by a more detailed homework problem, designed to test the reader and show how the ideas discussed can be applied."--Jacket Print version record.
