This book describes collisions between atoms that have been cooled to extremely low temperatures by optical and evaporative cooling techniques. It reviews quantum theory of scattering, and summarizes techniques of optical cooling and trapping. It describes applications to precision spectroscopy, determination of atomic properties and the manipulation of Bose–Einstein condensates.
