A textbook that introduces a graduate student to the various fields of physics related to the interaction between radiation and matter. It emphasizes analogies and relations between seemingly different phenomena and different fields of quantum electronics.
1. Introduction. 1.1. Basic notions of quantum electronics. 1.2. History of quantum electronics. 1.3. Recent progress in quantum electronics (added by the editors) -- 2. Stimulated quantum transitions. 2.1. Amplitude and probability of a transition. 2.2. Transitions in monochrom…
"Most parts of the book contain the lecture courses taught by David Klyshko at Moscow State University, namely, quantum electronics, nonlinear optics and quantum optics. In every section, the main focus is on observable effects and their physical interpretation. The book emphasi…
