Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030705277
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 177
Book Description
This book addresses various aspects of physics, using Quantum oscillation (QO) as a common denominator. QO plays an important role in many aspects of physics, such as the Weinberg angle, Caribbo angle, neutrino oscillation, K0 oscillation and CP violation, mass generation by the Higgs field, hadron mass pattern, lepton anomalous magnetic moment, spin precession, hydrogen HI line, etc. Usually, these subjects are taught separately. As such, this book allows readers to learn about a wide range of physics subjects in a unified manner and to gain farther-reaching perspectives. The readers may be surprised at the fact that different looking physics are actually closely related with each other. They will also find essential information on quantum mechanics at the heart from many concrete examples. Though the book is mainly intended for graduate students of particle, nuclear and astrophysics, undergraduate students and researchers will also benefit from the content.

Nonlinear Theory of Electron Oscillations of a Collisionless Plasma in a Uniform Magnetic Field
Author: H. K. Sen
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Doppler effect
Languages : en
Pages : 60
Book Description
Possibility of excitation of finite amplitude longitudinal waves in a collisionless and cold plasma in the presence of uniform magnetic field is demonstrated. Such waves are found to be anharmonic in shape, in contrast to the usual harmonic, that is, sinusoidal waves of the linear theory. These nonlinear plasma waves arise as a result of nonlinear motion and the dispersive nature of plasma media. The two competing processes, nonlinearity and dispersion in a moving plasma medium strike a balance to produce a quasi-steady state which can support finite amplitude waves. These waves are associated with large amplitude oscillating electric fields which may be responsible for coherent radio-to-microwave radiation from coronal plasma and particle acceleration during solar flares. The estimate of sporadic electromagnetic and particulate radiation is important for application to the solar flare patrol and the Air Force Communications System. (Author).

Magnetic Oscillations in Metals
Author: D. Shoenberg
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1316583171
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 596
Book Description
It is just over 80 years ago that a striking oscillatory field dependence was discovered in the magnetic behaviour of bismuth at low temperatures. This book was first published in 1984 and gives a systematic account of the nature of the oscillations, of the experimental techniques for their study and of their connection with the electronic structure of the metal concerned. Although the main emphasis is on the oscillations themselves and their many peculiarities, rather than on the theory of the electronic structure they reveal, sufficient examples are given in detail to illustrate the kind of information that has been obtained and how this information agrees with theoretical prediction.

Physics of Oscillations and Waves
Author: Arnt Inge Vistnes
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319723146
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 584
Book Description
In this textbook a combination of standard mathematics and modern numerical methods is used to describe a wide range of natural wave phenomena, such as sound, light and water waves, particularly in specific popular contexts, e.g. colors or the acoustics of musical instruments. It introduces the reader to the basic physical principles that allow the description of the oscillatory motion of matter and classical fields, as well as resulting concepts including interference, diffraction, and coherence. Numerical methods offer new scientific insights and make it possible to handle interesting cases that can’t readily be addressed using analytical mathematics; this holds true not only for problem solving but also for the description of phenomena. Essential physical parameters are brought more into focus, rather than concentrating on the details of which mathematical trick should be used to obtain a certain solution. Readers will learn how time-resolved frequency analysis offers a deeper understanding of the interplay between frequency and time, which is relevant to many phenomena involving oscillations and waves. Attention is also drawn to common misconceptions resulting from uncritical use of the Fourier transform. The book offers an ideal guide for upper-level undergraduate physics students and will also benefit physics instructors. Program codes in Matlab and Python, together with interesting files for use in the problems, are provided as free supplementary material.
