Abstract:
This talk will discuss concepts and methods
of quantum control using lasers.
Applications considered will include control
of chemical reactions and preliminary
results on control of multielectron
systems. A new tool will be presented, the
von Neumann lattice of phase space
Gaussians, with applications ranging from
distilling mechanisms in ultrafast pulses, to
solving the Schrodinger equation for
multiparticle systems.
