Condensed matter is one of the most active fields of physics, with a stream of discoveries in areas from superfluidity and magnetism to the optical...

Trends In Experimental High Energy Physics

Quantum field theory was invented to deal simultaneously with special relativity and quantum mechanics, the two greatest discoveries of early twent...

Cosmology deals with the nature of the universe. It can be broadly divided into three great ages. The first began in the 6th century BC with the Py...

Physics and mathematics have always been closely intertwined, with developments in one field frequently inspiring the other. Currently, there are m...

A novel way of arranging the atomic structure of a substance so that it can be made thousands of times stronger than in its native state. Often use...

This book is the newest research on the physical properties of optical materials used in all types of lasers and optical systems. The scope include...

Quantum information processing is an exciting new emergent and interdisciplinary field. It combines questions of national security (When will today...

A quantum dot is a particle of matter so small that the addition or removal of an electron changes its properties in some useful way. All atoms are...

Quantum gravity is the field of theoretical physics attempting to unify the theory of quantum mechanics, which describes three of the fundamental f...

Although the various branches of physics differ in their experimental methods and theoretical approaches, certain general principles apply to all o...

Since their discovery a mere thirty years ago, solitons have been invoked to explain such diverse phenomena as: The long lived 'giant red spot' in ...

Turbulent flow means fluid flow in which the fluid undergoes irregular fluctuations. Understanding the turbulent behaviour in flowing fluids is one...

The U.S. energy service company (ESCO) industry is an example of a private sector business model where energy savings are delivered to customers pr...

Almost four decades ago, in response to the Arab oil embargo and recession it triggered, Congress passed legislation restricting crude oil exports ...

This book presents some new results in the studies of anomalous electromagnetic properties of thin granular carbon films. The book describes the st...

In Understanding Density Matrices, the modulus and phase degrees-of-freedom of molecular states are examined, the relevant continuity relations are...

The first chapter of this book proposes an analytical Fourier series solution to the equation for heat transfer by conduction in a spherical shell ...

As a critical theoretical advance, Understanding Plane Waves discusses the acoustic Goos-Hänchen effect. The important applications of this effect...

The book first considers that the evolution of quantum operators is canonical with the total Hamiltonian, and that the generator of the temporal ev...

This book is a natural follow-up and extension of the recent publication "The Big Bang: Theory, Assumptions & Problems", (Eds: O'Connell and Ha...

"Sustainable development is, for government and industry at least, primarily a way of turning trees into lumber, tar into oil, and critique into co...
