Journal ArticleDOI
Elimination of fast variables
TL;DR: In this article, a general scheme for extracting equations for the slow evolution of a physical system, including higher order corrections, is presented, which unifies the multifarious methods that exist in the literature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production and application of translationally cold molecules
TL;DR: In this paper, the deceleration of polar molecules using time-varying electric fields is discussed, and the operation principle of the array of electrodes that is used to decelerate polar molecules is described in analogy with, and using terminology from, charged particle accelerators.

I: The Wigner Distribution Function in Optics and Optoelectronics
TL;DR: The Wigner distribution function (WDF) is a mathematical tool that correctly yields the expectation values of any function of the coordinates or the momenta as discussed by the authors, which is useful in the characterization of light fields and optical systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antiprotonic-hydrogen atoms
TL;DR: In this article, the life history of the p-p atom is considered in some detail, from the initial capture of the antiproton when stopping in hydrogen, through the atomic cascade with the emission of X-rays, to the final antipron annihilation and production of mesons.
