Classical and Quantum Parametric Phenomena

The book contains a cogent discussion of the different subjects in the context of exercises based on numerical Python codes; this will be especially useful for self-teaching.

Auteur
Alexander Eichler studied physics in Basel (Switzerland) from 2000-2005, followed by a doctorate in Christian Schönenberger's group. His first postdoctoral position was in Adrian Bachtold's group in Barcelona (Spain), where he investigated the nonlinear properties of nanomechanical resonators made from carbon nanotubes and graphene. In 2013, he joined the group of Christian Degen at ETH Zürich (Switzerland) to work on magnetic resonance force microscopy. Since 2019 he has been a senior scientist in charge of the group's nanomechanics team. His main interests lie in developing scanning force microscopes with the aim of detecting individual nuclear spins, and the exploration of parametric networks as Ising machines. He is a private docent at ETH since 2022. Oded Zilberberg studied computer science, mathematics, and physics at the Hebrew university in Jerusalem (Israel, 2001-2004). He continued towards a masters in physics in Basel (Switzerland, 2005-2007), and obtained his doctorate on quantum measurements in solids state systems in the group of Yuval Gefen at the Weizmann Institute of Science (Israel, 2008-2012). His postdoctoral position was in Gianni Blatter's group at ETH Zurich (Switzerland, 2013-2015), where he extended his interests to studying material properties, quantum optics, and nonlinear dynamics. Following a year at ABB's corporate research (Switzerland), he started his own research group at ETH Zurich (Switzerland, 2016-2021), and is now a full professor at the University of Konstanz since late 2021.
