Laser pulse control: theory and experiment

We shall present a survey of important methods for laser pulse
control, including the techniques of  Paramonov on IR-pulse
induced vibrational transitions, Tannor and Rice for pump+dump, or
pump+control, Shapiro+ Brumer for coherent control, Rabitz for
optimal control as well as feed-back learning control, and others.
Some techniques will be demonstrated by selected examples from
the theoretical and experimental work of our ( i.e. Woeste, and
Manz+Paramonov) groups, including video simulations of the laser
driven molecular wavepacket dynamics.
