ISBN: 9789810244774 / Angielski / Miękka / 668 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book covers the foundations of classical thermodynamics, with emphasis on the use of differential forms of classical and quantum statistical mechanics, and also on the foundational aspects. In both contexts, a number of applications are considered in detail, such as the general theory of response, correlations and fluctuations, and classical and quantum spin systems. In the quantum case, a self-contained introduction to path integral methods is given. In addition, the book discusses phase transitions and critical phenomena, with applications to the Landau theory and to the...

Rotation and Accretion Powered Pulsars
ISBN: 9789810247447 / Angielski / Twarda / 792 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is an introduction to pulsars, a key area in high energy astrophysics with potential for further fundamental discoveries. Throughout the book, the emphasis is on the intimate connection between rotation-powered pulsars and accretion-powered pulsars -- a cornerstone of modern astrophysics. Early texts on pulsars dealt almost exclusively with rotation-powered ones, while later texts on X-ray binaries concentrated almost entirely on accretion-powered pulsars. This is the first book to treat the two kinds of pulsars on the same footing, stressing the connection between their physical...

CPT and Lorentz Symmetry - Proceedings of the Third Meeting
ISBN: 9789812561282 / Angielski / Twarda / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Lorentz and CPT invariance is a feature of the Standard Model of particle physics and of theories of gravity such as Einstein's general relativity. However, an underlying theory such as strings may introduce small violations of Lorentz and CPT symmetry. This book consists of reviews from about 50 experts in the field, covering theoretical and experimental studies of these relativity-violating effects. The Meeting focuses on recent developments involving fundamental spacetime symmetries and included theoretical scenarios and experimental searches for possible relativity violations....
