It will also be suitable as a reference text for advanced physics courses.
Editorial Reviews
Review
Review of the hardback: ‘… an excellent introduction to laser-matter interactions and will serve as a useful reference book for both students and researchers alike. what sets the book apart from previous publications is that it deals with the relatively new area of clusters interacting with intense laser pulses.’ D. Dundas, Contemporary Physics
