Phase Transitions
World Scientific Publishing Company 2004; US$ 59.80This book presents a short, fairly simple course on the basic theory of phase transitions and its modern applications. In physics, these applications include such modern developments as Bose? Einstein condensation of atoms, high temperature superconductivity, and vortices in superconductors, while in other fields they include small world phenomena... more...
Phase Transitions and Renormalization Group
Oxford University Press, UK 2007; US$ 98.99The renormalization group is one of most important theoretical concepts that has emerged in physics during the twentieth century. It explains important properties of fundamental interactions at the microscopic scale, as well as universal properties of continuous macroscopic phase transitions. - ;This work tries to provide an elementary introduction... more...
Geometry and Phase Transitions in Colloids and Polymers
World Scientific Publishing Company 2009; US$ 91.00This monograph represents an extension of the author's original PhD thesis and includes a more thorough discussion on the concepts and mathematics behind his research works on the foam model, as applied to studying issues of phase stability and elasticity for various non-closed packed structures found in fuzzy and colloidal crystals, as well as... more...
Kinetics of First-order Phase Transitions
Wiley 2009; US$ 205.00Filling a gap in the literature, this crucial publication on the renowned Lifshitz-Slezov-Wagner Theory of first-order phase transitions is authored by one of the scientists who gave it its name. Prof Slezov spent decades analyzing this topic and obtained a number of results that form the cornerstone of this rapidly developing branch of science. Following... more...
Interaction Models
Cambridge University Press 1977; US$ 39.00This book is based on a set of lectures given to a mixed audience of physicists and mathematicians. more...
Phase Transition Dynamics
Cambridge University Press 2002; US$ 118.00Phase Transition Dynamics provides a fully comprehensive treatment of the study of phase transitions. Building on the statistical mechanics of phase transitions, covered in many introductory textbooks, it will be essential reading for researchers and advanced graduate students in physics, chemistry, metallurgy and polymer science. more...
Order, Disorder, And Criticality
World Scientific Publishing Company 2004; US$ 100.10This book reviews some of the classic aspects in the theory of phase transitions and critical phenomena, which has a long history. Recently, these aspects are attracting much attention due to essential new contributions. The topics presented in this book include: mathematical theory of the Ising model; equilibrium and non-equilibrium criticality of... more...
Evolution of Phase Transitions
Cambridge University Press 2006; US$ 42.00This is an essential work to those interested in the development and application of continuum-mechanical models that describe the macroscopic response of materials capable of undergoing stress- or temperature-induced transitions between two solid phases. more...
Physics of Phase Transitions
Springer 2007; US$ 179.99This monograph develops a unified microscopic basis for phases and phase changes of bulk matter and small systems in terms of classical physics. The origins of such phase changes are derived from simple but physically relevant models of how transitions between rigid crystalline, glassy and fluid states occur, how phase equilibria arise, and how bulk... more...
Non-Equilibrium Phase Transitions
Springer 2008; US$ 109.99Describes two main classes of non-equilibrium phase-transitions: static and dynamics of transitions into an absorbing state, and dynamical scaling in far-from-equilibrium relaxation behaviour and ageing. more...
