This text will thoroughly update the existing literature on atomic physics. Intended to accompany an advanced undergraduate course in atomic physics, the book will lead the students up to the latest advances and the applications to Bose-Einstein Condensation of atoms, matter-wave inter-ferometry and quantum computing with trapped ions. The elementary atomic physics covered in the early chapters should be accessible to undergraduates when they are first introduced to the subject. To complement the usual quantum mechanical treatment of atomic structure the book strongly emphasizes the experimental basis of the subject, especially in the later chapters. It includes ample tutorial material (examples, illustrations, chapter summaries, graded problem sets).

本文的主要目的是与原子物理学的高级本科课程一起提供。但是，当初学者第一次接触该主题时，应该可以访问前几章中介绍的基本原子物理学。这本书描述了一些新的进展及其在原子的玻色-爱因斯坦凝聚，物质波干涉法和带有捕获离子的量子计算中的应用。为了补充对原子结构的常规量子力学处理，本书特别强调了该主题的实验基础，尤其是在随后的章节中。

CJ Foot was a Junior Research Fellow of Jesus College in Oxford 1984-86, as well as being awarded the Lindemann Trust Fellowship at Stanford University 1984-85 and the Royal Society University Research Fellowship 1986-1991. In 1991, he became a university lecturer and was awarded the title of Professor of physics in 2002. He won the National Physical Laboratory Metrology Award in 1990.
