Plus de cinquante ans après leur invention, les lasers continuent à nous étonner. Leurs performances sont toujours plus extraordinaires et le champ de leurs applications ne cesse de s’étendre. Ils sont omniprésents dans notre vie "idienne pour les lecteurs de CD, de DVD et de codes-barres et comme ingrédients essentiels des autoroutes de l’information. Ils sont devenus irremplaçables dans l’industrie et les hôpitaux. Ils permettent aussi des avancées spectaculaires de la recherche fondamentale : optique quantique, horloges ultra précises, lasers à atomes, tests de la relativité générale. Ce livre préfacé par Charles Townes, prix Nobel et inventeur du laser, a été écrit par les meilleurs spécialistes français du domaine. Après un bref rappel des principes, cet ouvrage offre un panorama des différents types de lasers, des plus petits aux plus puissants. Il effectue un vaste tour d’horizon de leurs applications et donne un aperçu des développements les plus récents. Cette seconde édition a été enrichie et mise à jour afin de couvrir certains aspects les plus récents de l’optique quantique, de la métrologie, et de la physique des atomes froids et des molécules froides. La première édition de ce livre a obtenu le prix Prix Arnulf-Françon 2011 de la Société Française d'Optique. Ce prix récompense la réalisation de supports pédagogiques destinés à l'enseignement de l'Optique dans l'enseignement supérieur.

This textbook delivers a comprehensive review of modern spectroscopy encompassing a plethora of various X-ray, photoelectron, optical and laser, as well as radiofrequency and microwave spectroscopic techniques. On the fundamental side, it focuses on physical principles and the impact of spectroscopy on our understanding of the building blocks of matter, while in the area of applications, particular attention is given to those in chemical analysis, photochemistry, surface characterization, environmental and medical diagnostics, remote sensing at short and long ranges, and astrophysics. It features detailed discussion of laser cooling and trapping, Bose–Einstein condensation, ultra-fast spectroscopy, high-power laser–matter interaction, spectroscopy and imaging in astronomy, and various spectroscopic aspects of laser medicine. This thoroughly updated and significantly expanded 5th edition of Svanberg’s Atomic and Molecular Spectroscopy includes a new section on the interplay of optical spectroscopy and multispectral imaging, as well as new coverage of laser-spectroscopic applications to cultural heritage monitoring, ecology, optical mammography, and photoacoustic tomography. For newcomers to the field, it introduces a new section on the fundamentals of quantum mechanics, providing a brief primer to those students without formal experience in the subject. Based on the author’s 50-year career lecturing on spectroscopy and its interdisciplinary applications, the book features over 100 chapter-end questions and close to 3000 references, offering a wealth of meticulously curated experience and pedagogical insight to graduate and advanced undergraduate students throughout physics, chemistry, biology, and materials science.
