Introduction to Quantum Metrology

This book offers an introduction to ten key topics in quantum information science and quantum coherent phenomena, aimed at graduate-student level. The chapters cover some of the most recent developments in this dynamic research field

Authors: Lewis-Swan, Robert J.
Nominated as an outstanding Ph.D. thesis by the The University of Queensland, AustraliaProvides a strong theoretical background to the generation, characterization and exploitation of quantum correlations and entanglement, with a particular focus on quantum-atom optics
Presents a comprehensive theoretical analysis of novel, experimentally realistic proposals to demonstrate non-classical phenomena such as the Hong-Ou-Mandel effect and violation of a Bell inequality with matter waves
Offers a detailed introduction to phase-space methods and their use in simulating the non-equilibrium dynamics of large quantum many-body systems
