內容簡介：
這是一部 Roy Glauber 的論文和講座稿集，收錄了他從１９６３年至１９９９年發表的代表性的論文和講座的講稿。
Roy.J.Glauber教授生於美國紐約，24歲獲得哈佛大學物理學博士學位，現任哈佛大學物理系教授。作為2005 年諾貝爾獎物理學獎獲得者之一，Roy.J.Glauber教授奠定了量子光學理論的基礎，他揭示出在光學裡，量子理論同樣適用，因此對光粒子運動的描述成為可能。Roy.J.Glauber教授因為對“光學相干量子理論的貢獻”而獲獎。早在1963年Roy.J.Glauber教授就通過自己的先驅性工作，成功應用量子理論來解釋一些光學觀測結果，他的研究奠定了新興的量子光學理論基礎。
