Description

The paper of N. Bogoliubov [J. Phys. USSR 11, 23 (1947)] has opened the way to understanding coherent quantum many-body systems. I briefly review current efforts aimed at controlling the quantum world and developing novel applications of the fundamental laws of quantum mechanics, which are to-days descendants of his work. I illustrate these efforts with theoretical results obtained at SNS over the last few years. (author)
