| Title | Modern Theory of Gratings : Resonant Scattering: Analysis Techniques and Phenomena |
| Author(s) | Sirenko, Yuriy K;Str??m, Staffan |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2010. |
| Description | XVI, 390 p. 120 illus., 43 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Diffraction gratings are one of the most popular objects of analysis in electromagnetic theory. The requirements of applied optics and microwave engineering lead to many new problems and challenges for the theory of diffraction gratings, which force us to search for new methods and tools for their resolution. In Modern Theory of Gratings, the authors present results of the electromagnetic theory of diffraction gratings that will constitute the base of further development of this theory, which meet the challenges provided by modern requirements of fundamental and applied science. This volume covers: spectral theory of gratings (Chapter 1) giving reliable grounds for physical analysis of space-frequency and space-time transformations of the electromagnetic field in open periodic resonators and waveguides; authentic analytic regularization procedures (Chapter 2) that, in contradistinction to the traditional frequency-domain approaches, fit perfectly for the analysis of resonant wave scattering processes; parametric Fourier method and C-method (Chapter 3) oriented to the effective numerical analysis of transformation properties of periodic interfaces and multilayer conformal arrays; new rigorous methods for analysis of special-temporal transformations of electromagnetic field that are based on the construction and incorporation into the standard finite-difference computational schemes the so-called exact absorbing boundary conditions (Chapter 4); new solution variants to the homogenization problem (Chapter 5) ??? the central problem arising in the synthesis of metamaterials and metasurfaces; new physical and applied results (Chapters 2 to 5) about pulsed and monochromatic wave resonant scattering by periodic structures, including structures loaded on dielectric layers or chiral and left-hand medium layers, etc. Modern Theory of Gratings is intended for researchers and postgraduate students in computational electromagnetics and optics, theoretical and applied radio physics. The material is also suitable for undergraduate courses in physics, computational physics and applied mathematics |

| Title | Astronomical Spectroscopy for Amateurs |
| Author(s) | Harrison, Ken M |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2011. |
| Description | XIV, 242 p. 193 illus., 35 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Astronomical Spectroscopy for Amateurs is a complete guide for amateur astronomers who are looking for a new challenge beyond astrophotography. The book provides a brief overview of the history and development of the spectroscope, then a short introduction to the theory of stellar spectra, including details on the necessary reference spectra required for instrument testing and spectral comparison. The various types of spectroscopes available to the amateur are then described. Later sections cover all aspects of setting up and using various types of commercially available and home-built spectroscopes, starting with basic transmission gratings and going through more complex models, all the way to the sophisticated Littrow design. The final part of the text is about practical spectroscope design and construction. This book uniquely brings together a collection of observing, analyzing, and processing hints and tips that will allow the amateur to build skills in preparing scientifically acceptable spectra data. It covers all aspects of designing, constructing, testing, calibrating, and using a spectroscope and enables the average amateur astronomer to successfully build and use a homemade spectroscope for a fraction of the current commercial cost. As Professor Chris Kitchin said, ???If optical spectroscopy had not been invented then fully 75 percent of all astronomical knowledge would be unknown today, and yet the subject itself re-ceives scant attention in astronomical texts.??? This book answers that need. It is the practical spectroscopy book that amateur astronomers have been waiting for! |

| Title | Electromagnetic and Optical Pulse Propagation 2 : Temporal Pulse Dynamics in Dispersive, Attenuative Media |
| Author(s) | Oughstun, Kurt E |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2009. |
| Description | XV, 831 p. 350 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Electromagnetic and Optical Pulse Propagation presents a systematic treatment of the radiation and propagation of transient electromagnetic and optical wave fields (such as those used in ultrawideband radar and communications systems as well as in ultrashort pulsed optics) through causal, locally linear media which exhibit both temporal dispersion and absorption. Volume I presents a detailed, rigorous development of the fundamental theory of both time and frequency-domain electromagnetics, beginning with the classical Maxwell-Lorentz theory of microscopic electromagnetic fields and its invariance in the special theory of relativity, the correlation of the microscopic and macroscopic fields, and the angular spectrum representation of pulsed radiation fields in causally dispersive media. The theory provides a rigorous framework for applied research treating temporally pulsed wave fields in dielectric, conducting and semiconducting materials. Volume II presents the asymptotic description of specific pulsed wave fields in both Debye and Lorentz model dielectrics, Drude model conductors and composite model semiconductors |

| Title | Quasi-Optical Control of Intense Microwave Transmission : Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Quasi-Optical Control of Intense Microwave Transmission Nizhny, Novgorod, Russia 17 - 20 February 2004 |
| Author(s) | Hirshfield, Jay L;Petelin, Michael I |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2005. |
| Description | XII, 400 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Between February 17 and 20, 2004, approximately fifty scientists from ten countries came together at the Institute of Applied Physics (IAP), Nizhny Novgorod, Russia to participate in a NATO sponsored Advanced Research Workshop whose appellation is re flected in the title of this volume, namely Quasi Optical Control of Intense Microwave Transmission. The fashionable label ???quasi optical ??? has come into use in recent decades to denote structures whose characteristic dimensions exceed (sometimes by large factors) the free space radiation wavelength. Such structures were and are developed to replace the traditional single eigenmode ones in situations when high frequenc ies (short wavelengths) are combined with high powers, a combination that could otherwise lead to RF breakdown and high Ohmic wall heating rates. Treatments of guided wave propagation in oversized structures is aimed at pr eserving the propagating field coherence and thus to provide efficient transmission of RF power to remote destinations such as antennas, microwave ovens, plasma chemical reactors, nuclear fusion machines, and the like |

| Title | Ultraviolet and Soft X-Ray Free-Electron Lasers : Introduction to Physical Principles, Experimental Results, Technological Challenges |
| Author(s) | Schm??ser, Peter;Dohlus, Martin;Rossbach, J??rg |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2009. |
| Description | XIII, 207 p. 88 illus., 84 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | In the introduction accelerator-based light sources are considered and a comparison is made between free-electron lasers and conventional quantum lasers. The motion and radiation of relativistic electrons in undulator magnets is discussed. The principle of a low-gain free-electron laser is explained and the pendulum equations are introduced that characterize the electron dynamics in the field of a light wave. The differential equations of the high-gain FEL are derived from the Maxwell equations of electrodynamics. Analytical and numerical solutions of the FEL equations are presented and important FEL parameters are defined, such as gain length, FEL bandwidth and saturation power. A detailed numerical study of the all-important microbunching process is presented. The mechanism of Self Amplified Spontaneous Emission is described theoretically and illustrated with numerous experimental results. Three-dimensional effects such as betatron oscillations and optical diffraction are addressed and their impact on the FEL performance is analyzed. The world???s first soft X-ray FEL, the user facility FLASH at DESY, is described in some detail in order to give an impression of the complexity of such an accelerator-based light source. Finally, the physical and technological challenges of X-ray FELs are addressed while some of the more involved calculations are put into the appendices, where also supplementary material can be found |

| Title | Semiconductor Lasers : Stability, Instability and Chaos |
| Author(s) | Ohtsubo, Junji |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2013. |
| Description | XX, 572 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This third edition of ???Semiconductor Lasers, Stability, Instability and Chaos??? was significantly extended.?? In the previous edition, the dynamics and characteristics of chaos in semiconductor lasers after the introduction of the fundamental theory of laser chaos and chaotic dynamics induced by self-optical feedback and optical injection was discussed. Semiconductor lasers with new device structures, such as vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers and broad-area semiconductor lasers, are interesting devices from the viewpoint of chaotic dynamics since they essentially involve chaotic dynamics even in their free-running oscillations. These topics are also treated with respect to the new developments in the current edition. Also the control of such instabilities and chaos control are critical issues for applications. Another interesting and important issue of semiconductor laser chaos in this third edition is chaos synchronization between two lasers and the application to optical secure communication. One of the new topics in this edition is fast physical number generation using chaotic semiconductor lasers for secure communication and development of chaos chips and their application. As other new important topics, the recent advance of new semiconductor laser structures is presented, such as quantum-dot semiconductor lasers, quantum-cascade semiconductor lasers, vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers and physical random number generation with application to quantum key distribution. Stabilities, instabilities, and control of quantum-dot semiconductor lasers and quantum-cascade lasers are important topics in this field |
