A term that is nearly synonymous with complex numbers or functions is their phase. The rising preoccupation with the wave function phase in the last few decades is beyond doubt, to the extent that the importance of phases has of late become comparable to that of the moduli. (We use Dirac s terminology [7], which writes a wave function by a set of coefficients, the amplitudes, each expressible in terms of its absolute value, its modulus, and its phase. ) There is a related growth of literatm e on interference effects, associated with Aharonov-Bohm and Berry phases [8-14], In parallel, one has witnessed in recent years a trend to construct selectively and to manipulate wave functions. The necessary techifiques to achieve these are also anchored in the phases of the wave function components. This bend is manifest in such diverse areas as coherent or squeezed states [15,16], elecbon bansport in mesoscopic systems [17], sculpting of Rydberg-atom wavepackets [18,19], repeated and nondemolition quantum measurements [20], wavepacket collapse [21], and quantum computations [22,23], Experimentally, the determination of phases frequently utilizes measurement of Ramsey fringes [24] or similar" methods [25].

Effective July 1973, the U.S. Army Armament.Command was established as a Major Command of the U.S. Army Materiel Command, located at Rock Island, Illinois. Effective 30 September 1973, the U.S. Army Munitions Command and the U.S. Army Weapons Command were disestablished and merged into the operational command of this new Armament Command. Picatinny Arsenal, as a Commodity Center, presently reports organizationally to the U.S. Army Armament Command Refs 1) N.F. Ramsey, ArOrdn 7, 1-8 (1926) (Historical background) 2) F.H.
