Statistical Methods in Quantum Optics 1: Master Equations and Fokker-Planck Equations

by Howard J. Carmichael

Book Overview

As a graduate student working in quantum optics I encountered the question that might be taken as the theme of this book. The question definitely arose at that time though it was not yet very clearly defined; there was simply some deep irritation caused by the work I was doing, something quite fundamental I did not understand. Of course, so many things are not understood when one is a graduate student. However, my nagging question was not a technical...
