The textbook Introduction to Classical Mechanics aims to provide a clear and concise set of lectures that take one from the introduction and applic...

The author of this book presents conceptual and experimental evidence showing that Heisenberg's uncertainty relations are not valid in all cases. F...

New Edition: Classical Theory of Electromagnetism (3rd Edition)The topics treated in this book are essentially those that a graduate student of phy...

Edward A Bouchet was the first African-American to receive the doctorate in any field of knowledge in the United States and that area was physics. ...

This is perhaps the most comprehensive undergraduate textbook on the fundamental aspects of solid state electronics. It presents basic and state-of...

This book explains in detail how to perform perturbation expansions in quantum field theory to high orders, and how to extract the critical propert...

This is perhaps the most up-to-date book on Modern Elementary Particle Physics. The main content is an introduction to Yang-Mills fields, and the S...

Almost all real systems are nonlinear. For a nonlinear system the superposition principle breaks down: The system's response is not proportional to...

This review volume presents both basic and applied aspects of diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS). The term DMS applies generally to semiconducto...

This volume is a selection of invaluable papers by P-G de Gennes — 1991 Nobel Prize winner in Physics — which have had a long-lasting impact on our...

Physics and Astrophysics—Glimpses of the Progress provides a comprehensive account of physics and astrophysics from the time of Aristotle to the mo...

This volume offers an introduction to recent developments in several active topics of research at the interface between geometry, topology and quan...

This is a review monograph on quark-gluon plasma (QGP). Different theoretical and experimental aspects of the program to produce QGP in relativisti...

This book provides an extensive and self-contained presentation of quantum and related invariants of knots and 3-manifolds. Polynomial invariants o...

This book is a tribute to the life and work of J Q Chen. The contributions of Chen to nuclear and molecular physics are discussed vis-à-vis present...

This book presents new, promising theories on soft X-ray spectroscopy. As third generation synchrotron light sources have started operating, more p...

Anomalous transport is a ubiquitous phenomenon in astrophysical, geophysical and laboratory plasmas; and is a key topic in controlled nuclear fusio...

This book utilizes non-equilibrium thermodynamics to describe transport in complex, heterogeneous media. There are large coupling effects between t...

The contents of this book are derived from a celebration of the 70th birthday of Vernon W Hughes. Professor Hughes' career has touched on several a...

This book systematically introduces plasma physics that will enable nuclear fusion for continous energy production. Especially emphasized is the no...

Quantum electrodynamics is an essential building block and an integral part of the gauge theory of unified electromagnetic, weak, and strong intera...

About sixty years ago, the anomalous magnetic response of certain magnetic alloys drew the attention of theoretical physicists. It soon became clea...
