Laser-Cooled and Trapped Atoms. Proceedings of the Workshop on Spectroscopic Applications of Slow Atomic Beams Held at the National Bureau of Standards, Gaithersburg, MD. on April 14-15, 1983

摘要

The proceedings of the Workshop on Spectroscopic Applications of Slow Atomic Beams contain papers on laser cooling of atomic beams, gases, and trapped particles and papers on trapping of neutral atoms in laser, electric, and magnetic fields. These and other papers discuss possible applications of cooled atoms to spectroscopy and to time and frequency standards. The present status and directions of research in time and frequency standards is also discussed.
