Basic Books 2013; US$ 16.99The epic story of the quest to uncover a fully unified theory of physics, revised to reflect the possible discovery of the Higgs Boson. more...
Microwaves in Nanoparticle Synthesis
Wiley 2013; US$ 112.50For the first time, this comprehensive handbook presents the emerging field of microwave technology for the synthesis of nanoparticles. Divided into three parts--fundamentals, methods, and applications--it covers topics including microwave theory, scale-up, microwave plasma synthesis, characterization, and more. This offers both an important volume... more...
The Sherrington-Kirkpatrick Model
Springer 2013; US$ 84.99The celebrated Parisi solution of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model for spin glasses is one of the most important achievements in the field of disordered systems. Over the last three decades, through the efforts of theoretical physicists and mathematicians, the essential aspects of the Parisi solution were clarified and proved mathematically. The core... more...
Introduction to Metal-Nanoparticle Plasmonics
Wiley 2013; US$ 110.00Based on a popular article in Laser and Photonics Reviews , this book provides an explanation and overview of the techniques used to model, make, and measure metal nanoparticles, detailing results obtained and what they mean. It covers the properties of coupled metal nanoparticles, the nonlinear optical response of metal nanoparticles, and the phenomena... more...
Handbook of Micromechanics and Nanomechanics
CRC Press 2013; US$ 499.00This book presents the latest developments and applications of micromechanics and nanomechanics. It particularly focuses on some recent applications and impact areas of micromechanics and nanomechanics that have not been discussed in traditional micromechanics and nanomechanics books on metamaterials, micromechanics of ferroelectric/piezoelectric,... more...
The Theoretical Foundations of Quantum Mechanics
Springer 2013; US$ 69.99The Theoretical Foundations of Quantum Mechanics addresses fundamental issues that are not discussed in most books on quantum mechanics. This book focuses on analyzing the underlying principles of quantum mechanics and explaining the conceptual and theoretical underpinning of quantum mechanics. In particular, the concepts of quantum indeterminacy,... more...
Theory of Gravitational Interactions
Springer 2013; US$ 69.99This reference textbook is an up-to-date and self-contained introduction to the theory of gravitational interactions. The first part of the book follows the traditional presentation of general relativity as a geometric theory of the macroscopic gravitational field. A second, advanced part then discusses the deep analogies (and differences) between... more...
Quantum Walks and Search Algorithms
Springer 2013; US$ 54.99This book addresses an interesting area of quantum computation called quantum walks, which play an important role in building quantum algorithms, in particular search algorithms. Quantum walks are the quantum analogue of classical random walks.It is known that quantum computers have great power for searching unsorted databases. This power extends to... more...
The Theory of the Quantum World
World Scientific Publishing Company 2013; US$ 114.00Ever since 1911, the Solvay Conferences have shaped modern physics. The 25th edition held in October 2011 in Brussels and chaired by David Gross continued this tradition and celebrated the first centennial of this illustrious series of conferences. The development and applications of quantum mechanics have always been the main threads in the history... more...
