AMO physics

Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics Publications

AMO physics publications includes theses, dissertations, reports, and extended essays related to atomic, molecular, and optical physics.

Atomic, molecular, and optical physics is the study of matter-matter and light-matter interactions on the scale of single atoms or structures containing a few atoms. The three areas are grouped together because of their interrelationships, the similarity of methods used, and the commonality of the energy scales that are relevant. Physicists sometimes abbreviate the field as AMO physics.
