The Wigner Function in Science and Technology
This book is designed to give a background on the origins and development of Wigner functions, as well as its mathematical underpinnings. Along the way the authors emphasise the connections, and differences, from the more popular non-equilibrium Green's function approaches. But, the importance of the text lies in the discussions of the applications of the Wigner function in various fields of science, including quantum information, coherent optics, and superconducting qubits. These disciplines approach it differently, and the goal here is to give a unified background and highlight how it is utilized in the different disciplines.

The present monograph brings to readers, as researchers and students of physics and mathematics, recent developments in symmetries, where the representation space is a symplectic manifold. This gives rise to the quantum field theory formulated in through the concept of phase space and associated with the Wigner function, a quasi-distribution of probability. This approach provides information about non-classicality of quantum systems, describes quantum chaos and is the starting point of the quantum kinetic theory. In this realm, abelian and non-abelian gauge symmetries are introduced with the concept of quasi-amplitude of probability. This leads, for instance, to Symplectic Schrödinger, Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations dealing with systems in condensed matter and particle physics. These achievements are depicted here, following a pedagogical model of presentation.
Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Attosecond Science and Technology
This open access volume brings together selected papers from the 8th International Conference on Attosecond Science and Technology. The contributions within represent the latest advances in attosecond science, covering recent progress in ultrafast electron dynamics in atoms, molecules, clusters, surfaces, solids, nanostructures and plasmas, as well as the generation of sub-femtosecond XUV and X-ray pulses, either through table-top laser setups or with X-ray free-electron lasers. In addition to highlighting key advances and outlining the state of the field, the conference and its proceedings serve to introduce junior researchers to the community, promote collaborations, and represent the global and topical diversity of the field.
