The semiclassical theory of laser cooling
This paper reviews the basic theory of the mechanical action of light in resonant interaction with atoms. At present the main application is laser cooling, but the approach is a...
Remarks on the use of the apparent surface charges (ASC) methods in solvation problems: Iterative versus matrix‐inversion procedures and the renormalization of the apparent charges
Abstract We present a formal and numerical comparison between the iterative and matrix‐inversion approaches of the polarizable continuum model. The formal analysis shows complet...
Optical vortices 30 years on: OAM manipulation from topological charge to multiple singularities
Thirty years ago, Coullet et al. proposed that a special optical field exists in laser cavities bearing some analogy with the superfluid vortex. Since then, optical vortices hav...
Note on the Quantum-Mechanical Theory of Measurement
In recent notes by Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen and by Bohr, attention has been called to the fact that certain results of quantum mechanics are not to be reconciled with the as...
