Abstract The phenomenon of Bose-Einstein condensation of dilute gases in traps is
reviewed from a theoretical perspective. Mean-field theory provides a framework to …

The numerical prediction, theoretical analysis, and experimental verification of the
phenomenon of wave packet revivals in quantum systems has flourished over the last …

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 …

The? eld that encompasses the term “quantum interference” combines a number of separate
concepts, and has a variety of manifestations in d-ferent areas of physics. In the sense …

The revival structure of strong-field-induced rotational wave packets differs qualitatively from
revival structures analyzed in the past. One of the consequences of this difference is strong …

▪ Abstract Femtosecond time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy is emerging as a useful
technique for investigating excited state dynamics in isolated polyatomic molecules. The …

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are π-conjugated, quasi-one-dimensional
structures consisting of rolled-up graphene sheets that, depending on their chirality, behave …

Talbot and Talbot-Lau effects are frequently used in lensless imaging applications with light,
ultrasound, x-rays, atoms and molecules–generally in situations where refractive optical …

▪ Abstract Recent progress in the development of semiclassical methods to describe
quantum effects in molecular dynamics is reviewed. Focusing on rigorous semiclassical …

We describe the time evolution of a wave function in the infinite square well using a
fractional revival formalism, and show that at all times the wave function can be described as …
