Strong Field Physics - Todd Ditmire

This book presents the foundational physics underlying the generation of high intensity laser light and its interaction with matter. Comprehensive and rigorous, it describes how the strong electric and magnetic fields of a high intensity light pulse can shape the nonlinear dynamics of all forms of matter, from single electrons up to atomic clusters and plasmas. Key equations are derived from first principles and important results are clearly explained, providing readers with a firm understanding... Zobrazit více
