The Springer Series on Atomic, Optical, and Plasma Physics covers in a compre-
hensive manner theory and experiment in the entire f ield of atoms and molecules
and their interaction with electromagnetic radiation. Books in the series provide
arichsourceofnewideasandtechniqueswithwideapplicationsinfieldssuchas
chemistry, materials science, astrophysics, surface science, plasma technology, ad-
vanced optics, aeronomy, and engineering. Laser physics is a particular connecting
theme that has provided much of the continuing impetus for new developments
in the f ield. The purpose of the series is to cover the gap between standard under-
graduate textbooks and the research literature with emphasis on the fundamental
ideas, methods, techniques, and results in the f ield.
