In particular, the National Research Council was asked to cover the state of AMO science, emphasizing recent accomplishments and identifying new and compelling scientific questions. Controlling the Quantum World, discusses both the roles and challenges for AMO science in instrumentation; scientific research near absolute zero; development of extremely intense x-ray and laser sources; exploration and control of molecular processes; photonics at the nanoscale level; and development of quantum information technology. This book also offers an assessment of and recommendations about critical issues concerning maintaining U.S. leadership in AMO science and technology. 606 $aQuantum theory 606 $aAtoms 606 $aMolecules 606 $aPhotons 615 0$aQuantum theory. 615 0$aAtoms. 615 0$aMolecules. 615 0$aPhotons. 676 $a539 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommittee on Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Sciences 2010. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910973960603321 996 $aControlling the quantum world$94365517 997 $aUNINA
