Manipulating Quantum Coherence in Solid State Systems
Springer 2007; US$ 79.99This book features the proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute Manipulating Quantum Coherence in Solid State Systems , held in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, August 2005, which presented a fundamental introduction to solid-state approaches to achieving quantum computation. This proceedings volume describes the properties of quantum coherence in semiconductor... more...
The Standard Model and Beyond
Springer 2008; US$ 219.99This volume collects the edited tutorial lectures given at The Second International Summer School in High Energy Physics in Mgla, Turkey, in September 2006 - an annual event with international participation and a special focus on work done in the regions of central Asia. With emphasis on the standard model and beyond, lectures were devoted to presenting... more...
The Little Book of String Theory
Princeton University Press 2010; US$ 19.95The Little Book of String Theory offers a short, accessible, and entertaining introduction to one of the most talked-about areas of physics today. String theory has been called the "theory of everything." It seeks to describe all the fundamental forces of nature. It encompasses gravity and quantum mechanics in one unifying theory. But it is unproven... more...
Charm Production in Deep Inelastic Scattering
Springer 2011; US$ 99.99The production of heavy quarks in high-energy experiments offers a rich field to study, both experimentally and theoretically. Due to the additional quark mass, the description of these processes in the framework of perturbative QCD is much more demanding than it is for those involving only massless partons. In the last two decades, a large amount... more...
D-Brane
Springer 2012; US$ 64.99Superstring theory is a promising theory which can potentially unify all the forces and the matters in particle physics. A new multi-dimensional object which is called "D-brane" was found. It drastically changed our perspective of a unified world. We may live on membrane-like hypersurfaces in higher dimensions ("braneworld scenario"),... more...
Particles and Fundamental Interactions
Springer 2011; US$ 69.99The book provides theoretical and phenomenological insights on the structure of matter, presenting concepts and features of elementary particle physics and fundamental aspects of nuclear physics. Starting with the basics (nomenclature, classification, acceleration techniques, detection of elementary particles), the properties of fundamental interactions... more...
Cold and Ultracold Collisions in Quantum Microscopic and Mesoscopic Systems
Cambridge University Press 2003; US$ 53.00This book describes collisions between atoms that have been cooled to extremely low temperatures by optical and evaporative cooling techniques. It reviews quantum theory of scattering, and summarizes techniques of optical cooling and trapping. It describes applications to precision spectroscopy, determination of atomic properties and the manipulation... more...
