Book Description
The field of phase transitions and critical phenomena continues to be active in research, producing a steady stream of interesting and fruitful results. It has moved into a central place in condensed matter studies.Statistical physics, and more specifically, the theory of transitions between states of matter, more or less defines what we know about 'everyday' matter and its transformations.The major aim of this serial is to provide review articles that can serve as standard references for research workers in the field, and for graduate students and others wishing to obtain reliable information on important recent developments.

50 Years Of The Renormalization Group: Dedicated To The Memory Of Michael E Fisher
Author: Amnon Aharony
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9811282390
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 912
Book Description
The contributions in the book are devoted to the memory of Michael E Fisher, and hence include many personal memories from people whose work was influenced by him. Also, the book is a collection of articles from leaders in the field of phase transitions and critical phenomena, to celebrate 50 years of the renormalization group and the 1972 paper by Wilson and Fisher. Many of the articles review, in tutorial form, the progress in the fields of phase transitions and the renormalization group.

The Theory of Magnetism II
Author: Daniel C. Mattis
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642824056
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 189
Book Description
What is thermodynamics? What does statistical physics teach us? In the pages of this slim book, we confront the answers. The reader will discover that where thermodynami cs provi des a 1 arge scal e, macroscopi c theory of the ef fects of temperature on physical systems, statistical mechanics provides the microscopic analysis of these effects which, invariably, are the results of thermal disorder. A number of systems in nature undergo dramatic changes in aspect and in their properties when subjected to changes in ambient temperature or pres sure, or when electric or magnetic fields are applied. The ancients already knew that a liquid, a solid, or a gas can represent different states of the same matter. But what is meant by "state"? It is here that the systematic study of magnetic materials has provided one of the best ways of examining this question, which is one of the principal concerns of statistical physics (alias "statistical mechanics") and of modern thermodynamics.

Low-Dimensional Cooperative Phenomena
Author: H. J. Keller
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 1489970312
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
Theoretical and experimental work on solids with low-dimensi℗Ư onal cooperative phenomena has been rather explosively expanded in the last few years, and it seems to be quite fashionable to con℗Ư tribute to this field, especially to the problem of one-dimensional metals. On the whole, one could divide the huge amount of recent investigations into two parts although there is much overlap bet℗Ư ween these regimes, namely investigations on magnetic exchange interactions constrained to mainly one or two dimensions and, secondly, work done on Id metallic solids or linear chain compounds with Id delocalized electrons. There is, of course, overlap from one extreme case to the other with these solids and in some rare cases both phenomena are studied on one and the same crystal. In fact, however, most of the scientific groups in this area could be associated roughly with one of these categories and, in addition, a separation between theoreticians and experimentalists in each of these groups leads to a further splitting of interests although many theories about these solids have been tested by experimenta℗Ư lists. Nevertheless, more cooperation and understanding between scientists working on low-dimensional cooperative phenomena should appreciably stimulate further development. With a better inderdis℗Ư ciplinary understanding, new ideas could possibly help chemists in synthesizing tailor-cut solids. This would in return give experi℗Ư mentalists new phenomena to examine and finally would stimulate new theoretical work.
