Book Description
This new, third volume of Cohen-Tannoudji's groundbreaking textbook covers advanced topics of quantum mechanics such as uncorrelated and correlated identical particles, the quantum theory of the electromagnetic field, absorption, emission and scattering of photons by atoms, and quantum entanglement. Written in a didactically unrivalled manner, the textbook explains the fundamental concepts in seven chapters which are elaborated in accompanying complements that provide more detailed discussions, examples and applications. * Completing the success story: the third and final volume of the quantum mechanics textbook written by 1997 Nobel laureate Claude Cohen-Tannoudji and his colleagues Bernard Diu and Franck Laloë * As easily comprehensible as possible: all steps of the physical background and its mathematical representation are spelled out explicitly * Comprehensive: in addition to the fundamentals themselves, the books comes with a wealth of elaborately explained examples and applications Claude Cohen-Tannoudji was a researcher at the Kastler-Brossel laboratory of the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris where he also studied and received his PhD in 1962. In 1973 he became Professor of atomic and molecular physics at the Collège des France. His main research interests were optical pumping, quantum optics and atom-photon interactions. In 1997, Claude Cohen-Tannoudji, together with Steven Chu and William D. Phillips, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for his research on laser cooling and trapping of neutral atoms. Bernard Diu was Professor at the Denis Diderot University (Paris VII). He was engaged in research at the Laboratory of Theoretical Physics and High Energy where his focus was on strong interactions physics and statistical mechanics. Franck Laloë was a researcher at the Kastler-Brossel laboratory of the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris. His first assignment was with the University of Paris VI before he was appointed to the CNRS, the French National Research Center. His research was focused on optical pumping, statistical mechanics of quantum gases, musical acoustics and the foundations of quantum mechanics.

Interaction and Market Structure
Author: Domenico Delli Gatti
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642570054
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
This book is a collection of essays which examine how the properties of aggregate variables are influenced by the actions and interactions of heterogenous individuals in different economic contexts. The common denominator of the essays is a critique of the representative agent hypothesis. If this hypothesis were correct, the behaviour of the aggregate variable would simply be the reproduction of individual optimising behaviour. In the methodology of the hard sciences, one of the achievements of the quantum revolution has been the rebuttal of the notion that aggregate behaviour can be explained on the basis of the behaviour of a single unit: the elementary particle does not even exist as a single entity but as a network, a system of interacting units. In this book, new tracks in economics which parallel the developments in physics mentioned above are explored. The essays, in fact are contributions to the analysis of the economy as a complex evolving system of interacting agents.

Cold-Spray Coatings
Author: Pasquale Cavaliere
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319671839
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 566
Book Description
This book combines the contributions of experts in the field to describe the behavior of various materials, micromechanisms involved during processing, and the optimization of cold-spray technology. It spans production, characterization, and applications including wear resistance, fatigue, life improvement, thermal barriers, crack repair, and biological applications. Cold spray is an innovative coating technology based on the kinetic energy gained by particles sprayed at very high pressures. While the technique was developed in the 1990s, industrial and scientific interest in this technology has grown vastly in the last ten years. Recently, many interesting applications have been associated with cold-sprayed coatings, including wear resistance, fatigue life improvement, thermal barriers, biological applications, and crack repair. However, many fundamental aspects require clarification and description.

Trubulence sans vitesses moyennes et diffusion de particules solides dans l'eau
Author: Maurice Bouvard (hydraulicien).)
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : fr
Pages : 0
Book Description
Il semblait initialement tres problematique de realiser un ecoulement turbulent en milieu confine. La plaque oscillante percee de trous, a permis de resoudre le probleme dans des conditions qui, d'apres le resultat des mesures, sont tres satisfaisantes. On retrouve les proprietes classiques de l'ecoulement turbulent derriere grille avec une precision surprenante. En plus, les deux types de turbulence ne sont pas identiques: l'ecart par rapport a l'isotropie et surtout par rapport a l'homogeneite est evident dans le cas realise ici. Les parametres de base de la turbulence obtenue dependent des parametres du systeme generateur. En faisant varier ceux-ci, on pourrait modifier les variables de la turbulence, notamment le nombre de Reynolds, dans de larges limites. A puissance injectee par le mouvement de la plaque donnee, les echelles de dimension de la turbulence sont evidemment d'autant plus petites que le diametre des orifices de la plaque est reduit. En utilisant des liquides de diverses viscosites, on disposerait d'une variable de plus pour agir sur les parametres du mouvement obtenu. Un calcul concernant la diffusion de l'energie a permis de retrouver dans de bonnes conditions certains des resultats des mesures, et de deduire plusieurs parametres importants, a partir des resultats experimentaux. La mesure de la turbulence dans l'eau a ete effectuee a l'aide d'un film chaud. Pour remplacer la vitesse moyenne necessaire a la mesure, l'element sensible a ete place a l'extremite d'un bras tournant. L'etude a comporte deux etapes: 1) la premiere etape a consiste a mettre en evidence les causes des perturbations constatees et les methodes permettant de les eliminer. La plupart de ces perturbations sont dues aux corps dissous dans l'eau (gaz ou sels mineraux). L'utilisation de films isoles au quartz presente une amelioration considerable. Seule la methode a temperature constante peut etre utilisee, pour des raisons liees a la necessite d'avoir une surchauffe bien definie et une compensation d'inertie thermique de l'element sensible, si cette temperature variait. Le dispositif experimental presente beaucoup de facilites pour la mise au point de la methode du fil chaud dans les liquides; 2) la methode de mesure ayant ete mise au point sous l'aspect general, elle a ete appliquee a la determination des grandeurs caracteristiques de la turbulence obtenue: valeurs efficaces des fluctuations - correlations - micro-echelles - spectres. On a remarque notamment l'existence d'une zone de Kolmogoroff pour le spectre. On a deduit des mesures, par le calcul, la valeur de la constante de Kolmogoroff. Les resultats se situent a l'interieur des valeurs obtenues par d'autres experimentateurs, tout en permettant de les preciser. On a ensuite etudie certaines caracteristiques du mouvement des materiaux dans l'eau par photographie. La mesure des concentrations des billes en suspension a donne de tres bons resusltats. La precision de la mesure elle-meme n'est theoriquement pas limitee. Malheureusement, le procede n'est pas applicable aux particules tres petites.

Numerical Simulation of Turbulent Flows and Noise Generation

Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
Large Eddy Simulation (LES) is a high-fidelity approach to the numerical simulation of turbulent flows. Recent developments have shown LES to be able to predict aerodynamic noise generation and propagation as well as the turbulent flow, by means of either a hybrid or a direct approach. This book is based on the results of two French/German research groups working on LES simulations in complex geometries and noise generation in turbulent flows. The results provide insights into modern prediction approaches for turbulent flows and noise generation mechanisms as well as their use for novel noise reduction concepts.
