The Scattering of Light by Matter

Více o knize

The lectures focus on light scattering by matter, highlighting key theories and recent developments. Specific examples include the theoretical framework for interpreting experiments involving light scattering in alpha-quartz and electronic excitations in boron-doped diamond. While not exhaustive, the notes offer a curated selection of topics from the original lectures given at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa during 1995, reflecting both foundational concepts and contemporary research in the field.
