PHYSICS


ADVANCES IN PLASMA PHYSICS RESEARCH, VOLUME 6 [Francois Gerard (ed)] This series includes within its scope equilibria, linear waves, and instabilities; nonlinear behaviour, including turbulent and stochastic phenomena and associated transport, and solitons and shock waves. It also includes plasma physics of lasers and particle beams and charged-particle acceleration and transport as well as radiation generation, transport, propagation, and interaction with plasmas. Low-temperature plasmas, including sources. plasma chemistry and processing and covered as are geophysical, planetary, solar, and astrophysical plasmas and plasma confinement by magnetic fields. Inertial confinement physics, the physics of dense plasmas or matter under extreme conditions and dusty plasmas are further subsumed. This volumes includes the latest research from around the globe. { March 2008; HB, £55.99, 1600219233:9781600219238 , Nova Science }
LAGRANGIAN QUANTUM FIELD THEORY IN MOMENTUM PICTURE : Free Fields [Bozhidar Z Iliev] The monograph is devoted to in-depth analysis of the Langrangian approach in momentum picture of motion to quantum free scalar, spinor and vector fields. The main purpose of the monograph is to suggest a new approach and analysis of known of problems which results in reestablishment of known facts and new results. Almost all considerations will be done in the momentum picture of motion instead of the standard representation in Heisenberg picture of motion. All calculations are given in full details and the hypotheses underlying the theory are explicitly formulated at the points when they are logically required. { May 2008; HB, £71.99, 160456170X:9781604561708 , Nova Science }
LUMINESCENCE & DISPLAY PHOSPHORS : Phenomena & Applications [Arunachalam Lakshmanan] This new book highlights the link between the luminescence phenomena of phosphors used in different displays. Both fluorescence (used in display phosphors) and phosphorescence (used in after glow phosphors and storage phosphors) mechanisms and the efforts made in phosphor synthesis to reduce the interference of one on another are dealt with in detail. { March 2008; HB, £71.99, 1604560185:9781604560183 , Nova Science }
METHODS OF BOSONIC & FERMIONIC PATH INTEGRALS REPRESENTATIONS : Continuum Random Geometry in Quantum Field Theory [Luiz C L Botelho] This monograph is written on topics in the subject of Continuum Quantum Geometric Path Integrals applied to Yang-Mills Theory and variants (QCD, Chern-Simons Theory, Ising Models, etc.)- the called Random Geometry in Quantum Field Theory, which are hoped to be useful to graduate students of quantum physics and applied mathematics, with a focused weight towards to those interested in applying the concepts of continuum quantum geometry in other branches of modern physics, like superconductivity, nuclear physics, polymer theory, string theory, etc. The methodology used to in this monograph is the same exposed in previous work in random classical physics: "Methods of Bosonic Path Integrals Representations- Random Systems in Classical Physics - Nova Publishers, (2006) U.S.A.': Expositions and formulas should be chewed, swallowed and digested. This process of analysis should not be abandoned until it yields a comprehension of the overall pattern of the proposed ideas and math, so after this step, one is ready to make improvements, corrections or criticisms on the path integrals representations of this book. { March 2008; HB, £104.50, 1604560681:9781604560688 , Nova Science }
PROGRESS IN STATISTICAL MECHANICS RESEARCH [Javier S Moreno (ed)] Statistical mechanics is the application of probability theory, which includes mathematical tools for dealing with large populations, to the field of mechanics, which is concerned with the motion of particles or objects when subjected to a force. It provides a framework for relating the microscopic properties of individual atoms and molecules to the macroscopic or bulk properties of materials that can be observed in everyday life, therefore explaining thermodynamics as a natural result of statistics and mechanics (classical and quantum) at the microscopic level. In particular, it can be used to calculate the thermodynamic properties of bulk materials from the spectroscopic data of individual molecules. This ability to make macroscopic predictions based on microscopic properties is the main asset of statistical mechanics over thermodynamics. Both theories are governed by the second law of thermodynamics through the medium of entropy. { March 2008; HB, £104.50, 1604560282:9781604560282 , Nova Science }
