Fundamentals of Quantum Optics - (Dover Books on Physics) by John R Klauder & E C G Sudarshan (Paperback)

This graduate-level text provides a comprehensive survey of quantum optics, covering topics such as partially coherent light, photoelectric counting distributions, and lasers.

With a focus on the quantum theory of partial coherence and the nature of relations between classical and quantum theories of coherence, this book is an essential resource for students and professional physicists interested in intensity interferometry, photon counting correlations, and lasers.

The text offers particularly complete treatments of properties of the coherent states and of the diagonal representations for statistical states, which are applied to studies of coherence, coincident counting rates, and counting distributions for a number of physically significant states.
