Résumé

This volume is a collection of problems in atomic, molecular, and optical physics intended for a broad audience of physicists: from undergraduate students to researchers who wish to refresh and sharpen their knowledge of the field and to learn about recent exciting developments.

Provides a modern introduction to AMO physics and laser spectroscopy.
Written from an experimentalist's perspective.
Unique problem-solving approach, emphasizing estimates and approximate methods.
Includes both fundamental and "hot" topics, as well as the recent developments.
Contains several appendices with key reference data and tutorials.

Readership: Advanced undergraduates, graduate students and researchers working in physics and chemistry who are interested in atomic, molecular and optical (AMO) physics.
