The Scattering of Light by Matter

Más información sobre el libro

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.
