Spintronics and quantum information science are two promising candidates for innovating
information processing technologies. The combination of these two fields enables us to build …

The manner in which states of some quantum systems become effectively classical is of
great significance for the foundations of quantum physics, as well as for problems of …

The distinction between level clustering and level repulsion is one of the quantum
analogues of the classical distinction between globally regular and predominantly chaotic …

The control of individual quantum systems promises a new technology for the 21st century-
quantum technology. This book is the first comprehensive treatment of modern quantum …

Nanomagnetism is a rapidly expanding area of research which appears to be able to
provide novel applications. Magnetic molecules are at the very bottom of the possible size of …

Single trapped ions represent elementary quantum systems that are well isolated from the
environment. They can be brought nearly to rest by laser cooling, and both their internal …

After they have interacted, quantum particles generally behave as a single nonseparable
entangled system. The concept of entanglement plays an essential role in quantum physics …

The counter-intuitive aspects of quantum physics have been for long illustrated by thought
experiments, from Einstein's photon box to Schrödinger's cat. These experiments have now …

According to quantum mechanics, a physical system can be in any linear superposition of its
possible states. Although the validity of this principle is routinely validated for microscopic …

We propose a scheme to utilize photons for ideal quantum transmission between atoms
located at spatially separated nodes of a quantum network. The transmission protocol …
