This should be of interest to researchers in universities, research centres and industries who are involved in measurements and need advanced mathematical tools to solve their problems, and to whoever is working in the development of these mathematical tools.

Recent applications of laser based techniques in studying surface processes have stimulated new developments in energy transfer and reactions. This text, along with volume 1, includes discussions on spectroscopic techniques, energy transfer, desorption dynamics and photochemistry.

This second edition provides a broad range of methods and concepts required for the analysis and solution of equations which arise in the modeling of phenomena in the natural, engineering, and applied mathematical sciences. It may be used productively by both undergraduate and graduate students, as well as others who wish to learn, understand, and apply these techniques. Detailed discussions are also given for several topics that are not usually included in standard textbooks at this level of presentation: qualitative methods for differential equations, dimensionalization and scaling,...

A celebration of Professor Abdus Salam's contribution to the development and dissemination of physics, including his scientific achievements. This work discusses the highlights of recent advances in experiments and phenomenology in particle and condensed matter physics.
