For the engineer or scientist using spectroscopic laser diagnostics to investigate gas-phase media or plasmas, this book is an excellent resource for gaining a deeper understanding of the physics of ...

Molecular spectroscopy studies the interactions of light and matter. In addition to electronic states, molecules can store energy by vibrating and rotating. Molecular spectroscopy studies the ...

Raising the energy state of an atom's nucleus using a laser, or exciting it, would enable development of the most accurate atomic clocks ever to exist. This has been hard to do because electrons, ...

Transient extreme ultraviolet (XUV) spectroscopy has become an increasingly popular tool in developing ultrafast science advancements. Probing core-to-valence electronic transitions, XUV light sources ...

Physicists achieve major leap in precision and accuracy at extremely low light levels. Researchers at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics (MPQ) have successfully developed a new technique for ...

Ultraviolet spectroscopy plays a critical role in the study of electronic transitions in atoms and rovibronic transitions in molecules. These studies are essential for tests of fundamental physics, ...

Molecular ion spectroscopy and mass measurements constitute a dynamic field where experimental finesse meets rigorous theory to unravel fundamental aspects of molecular structure and interactions.

I'd start by focusing on the fact that spectroscopy is essentially a series of unrelated disciplines, since lots of phenomena can be described along a spectrum. So, for example, mass spec and NMR ...

The ion of the hydrogen molecule is ideally suited for making ultra-precise measurements of important physical constants. Physicists at Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU) headed by Professor ...

Researchers at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics (MPQ) have successfully developed a new technique for deciphering the properties of light and matter that can simultaneously detect and ...

An ultraviolet photon-counting dual-comb spectrometer. Two ultraviolet frequency combs of slightly different pulse repetition frequencies are generated at very low light levels by nonlinear frequency ...
