Synopsis
This book provides an elementary introduction to the subject of quantum optics, the study of the quantum mechanical nature of light and its interaction with matter. The presentation is almost entirely concerned with the quantized electromagnetic field. This text is designed for upper-level undergraduates taking courses in quantum optics who have already taken a course in quantum mechanics, and for first and second year graduate students., This elementary introduction to the subject of quantum optics, the study of the quantum mechanical nature of light and its interaction with matter, is almost entirely concerned with the quantized electromagnetic field.

    This feedback is (NEGATIVE) the seller accepted my offer on the doll, which was very nice, but every question I asked he never responded and just shipped the doll. When the doll arrived keep in mind, she came from Arizona and was wrapped completely in newspaper no plastic underneath , she is covered from head to toe in ink all over her face, her ears, her nose, her arms and her legs, hands and feet . I do not recommend the seller. I’m very sad, as she is not worth what I paid.
