The Quantum Beat
Covers topics relevant to atomic clocks. This book describes the design principles of the rubidium, cesium, hydrogen maser, and mercury ion standards; the changes that the advent of the laser has made possible, such as laser cooling, optical pumping, the formation of 'optical molasses', and the cesium 'fountain' standard.
