Advances in Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Physics, Volume 68, provides a comprehensive compilation of recent developments in a field that is in a state of rapid growth, as new experimental and theoretical techniques are used on many problems, both old and new. Topics covered include related applied areas, such as atmospheric science, astrophysics, surface physics, and laser physics, with timely articles written by distinguished experts. Updates to this new release include sections on Nonlinear x-ray physics, High intensity QED, Rydberg THz spectroscopy, Ultrafast electron diffraction, Precision Interferometry for Gravitation-wave Detection: Current Status and Future Trends, and more.

1. Collective motion of an atom array under laser illumination Ephraim Shahmoon, Mikhail D. Lukin and Susanne F. Yelin 2. Ultrafast and three-dimensional diffractive imaging of isolated molecules with electron pulses João Pedro Figueira Nunes and Martin Centurion 3. Precision interferometry for gravitational wave detection: Current status and future trends Gabriele Vajente, Eric K. Gustafson and David H. Reitze

Physicists and researchers in related applied areas
Susanne F. Yelin, is at the Physics Department, University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT, USA
Louis F. DiMauro is Professor of Physics and Hagenlocker Chair at the Ohio State University. He received his BA (1975) from Hunter College, CUNY and his Ph.D. from University of Connecticut in 1980 and was a postdoctoral fellow at SUNY at Stony Brook before arriving at AT&T Bell Laboratories in 1981. He joined the staff at Brookhaven National Laboratory in 1988 rising to the rank of senior scientist. In 2004 he joined the faculty at The Ohio State University. He was awarded 2004 BNL/BSA Science & Technology Prize, 2012 OSU Distinguish Scholar Award, the 2013 OSA Meggers Prize and the 2017 APS Schawlow Prize in Laser Science. He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society, the Optical Society of American and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He is currently the Director of the Institute for Optical Science and co-Director of the NSF NeXUS facility and the OSU Chemical Physics graduate program. He has served on numerous national and international committees, government panels, served as the 2010 APS DAMOP chair, vice-chair of the NAS CAMOS committee and currently serves on the NAS Board of Physics and Astronomy. His research interest is in experimental ultra-fast and strong-field physics. In 1993, he and his collaborators introduced the widely accepted semi-classical model in strong-field physics. His current work is focused on the generation, measurement, and application of attosecond x-ray pulses, study of fundamental scaling of strong field physics and application of x-ray free electron lasers.
