Description With this volume, Methods of Experimental Physics becomes Experimental Methods in the Physical Sciences,
a name change which reflects the evolution of todays science. This volume is the first of three which will provide a comprehensive treatment
of the key experimental methods of atomic, molecular, and optical physics; the three volumes as a set will form an excellent experimental
handbook for the field. The wide availability of tunable lasers in the pastseveral years has revolutionized the field and lead to the
introduction of many new experimental methods that are covered in these volumes. Traditional methods are also included to ensure that
the volumes will be a complete reference source for the field.
Audience
Researchers in atomic, molecular, and optical physics; advanced graduate students; chemical physicists; physical and analytical chemists;
and surface scientists, including chemists, materials scientists, and physicists.
