A review of nanoplasmonics is given. This includes fundamentals, nanolocalization of
optical energy and hot spots, ultrafast nanoplasmonics and control of the spatiotemporal …

Quantum control is concerned with active manipulation of physical and chemical processes
on the atomic and molecular scale. This work presents a perspective of progress in the field …

A contemporary review on the behavior of driven tunneling in quantum systems is
presented. Diverse phenomena, such as control of tunneling, higher harmonic generation …

We present a semiclassical surface-hop** method which is able to treat arbitrary
couplings in molecular systems including all degrees of freedom. A reformulation of the …

Written by two of the world's leading researchers in the field, this is a systematic introduction
to the fundamental principles of coherent control, and to the underlying physics and …

Coherent quantum control,, has attracted interest as a means to influence the outcome of a
quantum-mechanical interaction. In principle, the quantum system can be steered towards a …

The scope of this work is to provide a self-contained introduction to a selection of basic
theoretical aspects in the modeling and control of quantum mechanical systems, as well as a …

During recent years we could bear witness to an immense research activity, both in
experimental and theoretical physics, as well as in chemistry, aimed at understanding the …

We report on the formation of translationally cold Cs 2 ground-state molecules through
photoassociation of laser-cooled cesium atoms in a magneto-optical trap. The cold …

Femtochemistry addresses fundamental processes of chemical reaction dynamics such as
bond formation and breaking, which occur typically on a femtosecond time scale (1 fs) 10-15 …
