This wonderful textbook by Jeffrey Cina is a timely and much needed reference to learn how to interpret and design ultrafast spectroscopy experiments in terms of quantum molecular dynamics. It offers fresh and invaluable physical insights for both incoming graduate students as well as more established researchers in Physical Chemistry and beyond.
Jeff Cina earned a BS in Mathematics at UW-Madison, a PhD in Theoretical Physical Chemistry at UC-Berkeley, and carried out post-doctoral research at MIT. After teaching and conducting research at The University of Chicago, he joined the faculty at the University of Oregon in 1995. At Oregon, Cina was a founding member of the Oregon Center for Optics, now the Oregon Center for Optical, Molecular, and Quantum Science.
