The Jaynes-Cummings Model (JCM) has recently been receiving increased attention as one of the simplest, yet intricately nonlinear, models of quantum physics. Emphasising the omnipresence of the JCM across a range of disciplines, this comprehensive review conveys to the reader the fundamental generality of its formalism, looking at a wide range of applications in specific physical systems and across disciplines including atomic physics, quantum optics, solid-state physics and quantum information sciences.

Researchers in quantum physics, and in particular quantum optics. It should be a most valuable information source for anyone interested in cavity QED, circuit QED, or trapped ion physics.

Jonas Larson is an Associated Professor in the Section of Quantum Optics and Matter at Stockholm University. Today he pursues research in various topics of quantum optics, such as cavity/circuit QED, cold atomic gases, open quantum systems, and quantum critical models. Themistoklis Mavrogordatos received the BS and MS degrees in electrical engineering and computer science from the National Technical University of Athens, Greece, in 2009, and the PhD degree in emission properties of dye-doped liquid crystal resonators from the University of Cambridge, UK, in 2014. He is presently a PDRA with Jonas Larson at Stockholm University.
