The chapters cover some of the most recent developments in this dynamic research field where theoretical and experimental physics, combined with computer science, provide a fascinating arena for groundbreaking new concepts in information processing. The book addresses both the theoretical and experimental aspects of the subject, and clearly demonstrates how progress in experimental techniques has stimulated a great deal of theoretical effort and vice versa. Experiments are shifting from simply preparing and measuring quantum states to controlling and manipulating them, and the book outlines how the first real applications, notably quantum key distribution for secure communication, are starting to emerge. The chapters cover quantum retrodiction, ultracold quantum gases in optical lattices, optomechanics, quantum algorithms, quantum key distribution, quantum control based on measurement, orbital angular momentum of light, entanglement theory, trapped ions and quantum metrology, and open quantum systems subject to decoherence. The contributing authors have been chosen not just on the basis of their scientific expertise, but also because of their ability to offer pedagogical and well-written contributions which will be of interest to students and established researchers. 410 0$aScottish Graduate Series,$x2199-4617 606 $aQuantum computers 606 $aSpintronics 606 $aQuantum theory 606 $aPhase transformations (Statistical physics) 606 $aCondensed matter 606 $aQuantum optics 606 $aQuantum Information Technology, Spintronics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31070 606 $aQuantum Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19080 606 $aQuantum Gases and Condensates$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24033 606 $aQuantum Optics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24050 606 $aQuantum Computing$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M14070 615 0$aQuantum computers. 615 0$aSpintronics. 615 0$aQuantum theory. 615 0$aPhase transformations (Statistical physics) 615 0$aCondensed matter. 615 0$aQuantum optics. 615 14$aQuantum Information Technology, Spintronics. 615 24$aQuantum Physics. 615 24$aQuantum Gases and Condensates. 615 24$aQuantum Optics. 615 24$aQuantum Computing. 676 $a003.54 676 $a004.1 702 $aAndersson$b Erika$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aÖhberg$b Patrik$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300367603321 996 $aQuantum Information and Coherence$91770405 997 $aUNINA
