Quantum Physics of Light and Matter Photons, Atoms, and Strongly Correlated Systems
This compact but exhaustive textbook, now in its significantly revised and expanded second edition, provides an essential introduction to the field quantization of light and matter with applications to atomic physics and strongly correlated systems. Following an initial review of the origins of spec...
