One of the most profound revolutions brought about by quantum mechanics is that it does away with the distinction between waves and particles: atoms, in particular, can exhibit all the properties that we associate with wave phenomena, such as diffraction and interference; it...

The is is the first book on the market on the rapidly developing topic of atom optics, i.e., the manipulation of atoms by light. This research has led to atom cooling and trapping (for which the 1998 Nobel Prize in physics was awarded), Bose-Einstein condensation, and holds great...
