In addition to those indicated by the title, the concerns of the 57 papers include quantum cryptography and computation, statistical physics, quantum devices and high-precision measurements, generating non-classical light, and atom optics. They address them from such aspects as the relation between

This volume contains the proceedings of the Third International Conference on Quantum Communication and Measurement. The series of international conferences on quantum communication and measurement was established to encourage scientists working in the interdisciplinary research fields of quantum communication science and technology. The first such conference, organized by C. Benjaballah and O. Hirota under the title "Quantum Aspects of Optical Communication," assembled approximately 80 researchers in Paris in 1990. The second conference, held in Nottingham in 1994, was organized by V. P....
