The speedily constructing subject of ultracold atoms has many genuine and strength functions for condensed-matter technology, and the contributions to this publication emphasize those connections.

Ultracold Bose and Fermi quantum gases are brought at a degree acceptable for first-year graduate scholars and non-specialists reminiscent of extra mature normal physicists. The reader will locate solutions to questions like: how are experiments carried out and the way are the consequences interpreted? What are the benefits and boundaries of ultracold atoms in learning many-body physics? How do experiments on ultracold atoms facilitate novel clinical possibilities proper to the condensed-matted community?

This quantity seeks to be understandable instead of complete; it goals on the point of a colloquium, obtainable to outdoors readers, containing in simple terms minimum equations and restricted references. largely, it depends on many attractive experiments from the prior fifteen years and their very fruitful interaction with simple theoretical principles. during this specific context, phenomena so much correct to condensed-matter technology were emphasized.

  • Introduces ultracold Bose and Fermi quantum gases at a degree acceptable for non-specialists
  • Discusses landmark experiments and their fruitful interaction with uncomplicated theoretical ideas
  • Comprehensible instead of complete, containing in basic terms minimum equations

Oscillations and Waves: An Introduction

Bridging lower-division physics survey classes with upper-division physics classes, Oscillations and Waves: An advent develops a unified mathematical thought of oscillations and waves in actual structures. Emphasizing physics over arithmetic, the writer contains many examples from discrete mechanical, optical, and quantum mechanical platforms; non-stop gases, fluids, and elastic solids; digital circuits; and electromagnetic waves.

100 Years of Superconductivity

Even 100 years after its discovery, superconductivity maintains to convey us new surprises, from superconducting magnets utilized in MRI to quantum detectors in electronics. a hundred Years of Superconductivity offers a accomplished selection of issues on approximately the entire subdisciplines of superconductivity.

Research, Fabrication and Applications of Bi-2223 HTS Wires: 1 (World Scientific Series in Applications of Superconductivity and Related Phenomena)

The aim of this booklet is to hide all facets of Bi-2223 superconducting wires from primary study, fabrication method to functions. This ebook includes many chapters written by way of unique specialists within the world.

The Mathematical Theory of Symmetry in Solids: Representation Theory for Point Groups and Space Groups (Oxford Classic Texts in the Physical Sciences)

This ebook provides the entire thought of the irreducible representations of the crystallographic element teams and area teams. this is often very important within the quantum-mechanical learn of a particle or quasi-particle in a molecule or crystalline reliable as the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of a method belong to the irreducible representations of the crowd of symmetry operations of that approach.
