 | | Introduction to Thermodynamics and Kinetic Theory of Matter (Physics Textbook)An updated and expanded translation of the highly popular Russian textbook, Introduction to Thermodynamics and Kinetic Theory of Matter examines equilibrium and kinetic properties of matter – gas, liquid, and solid – using the general principles of thermodynamics and kinetic theory. Readable and accessible throughout, this book provides... | | Superconductivity: Fundamentals and Applications (Physics)Comprehensive and easy to understand this introductory text on superconductivity was especially written for the nonspecialist. The author, an active researcher in the field for more than forty years, presents the fundamental considerations (without too much mathematics), describes the various phenomena connected with the superconducting state,... |

Houches Lectures: 1972, Black Holes (Les Houches Lectures : 1972 Lectures)The story of the phenomenal transformation of general relativity within little more than a decade, from a quiet backwater of research, harboring a handful of theorists, to a booming outpost attracting increasing numbers of highly talented young people as well as heavy investment in experiments, is by now familiar. The amazing thing about this... | | A Chemist's Guide to Density Functional Theory"Chemists familiar with conventional quantum mechanics will applaud and benefit greatly from this particularly instructive, thorough and clearly written exposition of density functional theory: its basis, concepts, terms, implementation, and performance in diverse applications. Users of DFT for structure, energy, and molecular property... | | |

A Complete Introduction to Modern NMR SpectroscopyNuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is the study of molecular structure. It is a growing technique particularly in biochemistry and medicinal chemistry, that provides detailed information on molecular structure and dynamics that other methods cannot. Assuming only a first-year chemistry course for background, this practical guide... | | Invitation to Noncummutative GeometryThis is the first existing volume that collects lectures on this important and fast developing subject in mathematics. The lectures are given by leading experts in the field and the range of topics is kept as broad as possible by including both the algebraic and the differential aspects of noncommutative geometry as well as recent applications to... | | Introductory Nuclear PhysicsIn the half dozen years or so since the first publication of Introductory Nuclear Physics, there have been several new developments and changes in the emphasis in the field. This, together with the enthusiastic feedback from colleagues and students, makes it imperative to publish a new edition.
For an active topic of research, a textbook... |

Relativistic Reality: A Modern View (Knots and Everything, Vol 12)This book has its origins in my leaving applied physics in 1969 to teach at a small college and ponder the foundations of physics without pressure, even if with limited time caused by a heavy teaching load. Richard Feynman had lectured weekly during the two years I spent at Hughes Labs in Malibu, after graduating from Engineering Physics at... | | The Great Design: Particles, Fields, and CreationAlthough modern physics surrounds us and its concepts are constantly referred to in every newspaper, even educated nonscientists find the subject intimidating in the extreme. Most attempts to explain physics to general readers are either obscured by masses of mathematics or gross oversimplifications written by laymen. Here at last is a... | | Computational Physics of Carbon NanotubesCarbon nanotubes are the fabric of nanotechnology. Investigation into their properties has become one of the most active fields of modern research. This book presents the key computational modelling and numerical simulation tools to investigate carbon nanotube characteristics. In particular, methods applied to geometry and bonding, mechanical,... |
