Books on physics (Collection ?5) + Djvu-reader Publisher: McClelland & Stewart | 4? - 402 pages | 1977-2007 | DjVu | 75 MB
A mathematically consistent formulation of relativistic quantum electrodynamics (QED) has still to be found. Nevertheless, there are several simplified effective models that successfully describe many body quantum systems and the interaction of radiation with matter. Large Coulomb Systems explores a selection of mathematical topics inspired by QED. It comprises selected, expanded and edited lectures given by international experts at a topical summer school and is intended as a high-level introduction for graduate students, postdocs and nonspecialists from related fields.

Plasma Physics: Confinement, Transport and Collective Effects (Lecture Notes in Physics) Publisher: Springer | ISBN: 3540252746 | 496 pages | 2005 | DjVu
"This book is a compilation of review articles written by different authors, experts in modern fields of plasma physics, and it can serve as an excellent reference book for both the professional plasma physicists and graduate students. Each chapter of the book covers a specific subject giving the necessary introductory definitions and explanations as well as the current state of the art. … The text of the book is divided into 18 chapters, each of them followed by an extensive list of references … ."

A Short Course in Quantum Information Theory: An Approach From Theoretical Physics (Lecture Notes in Physics) Publisher: Springer | ISBN: 3540389946 | 122 pages | 2006 | DjVu
"The best things about this book are its brevity and clarity. In around 100 pages it provides a tutorial introduction to quantum information theory, including problems and solutions. … it’s worth a look if you want to quickly get up to speed with the language and central concepts of quantum information theory, including the background classical information theory." (Craig Savage, Australian Physics, Vol. 44 (2), 2007)
"This book presents a short introduction to the basic concepts of quantum information theory. The organization of the chapters is rather original since the concepts and methods are presented first in the classical and then in the quantum language. This expository trick efficiently highlights the differences between the two ‘worlds’ and the advantages provided by quantum information processing. … it is suitable for both undergraduate and graduate students." (Dario Tamascelli, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2008 d)
"The book by L. Diósi provides a concise, rather consistent and ‘thin’-book approach for teaching the quantum information theory which the author recommends ‘for all physicists, mathematicians and other people interested in universal and integrating aspects of physics.’ The idea of this ‘thin’-book … has to provide the readers with the self-contained and consistent material that would be sufficient for them to turn to concrete problems, largely without any suggestion to read further thick books." (Eugene Kryachko, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1157, 2009)
Novel NMR and EPR Techniques (Lecture Notes in Physics) Publisher: Springer | ISBN: 354032626X | 402 pages | 2006 | DjVu
A survey of recent research in the fields of condensed matter physics and chemistry based on novel NMR and ESR techniques. Applications include quantum computing, metal nanoparticles, low dimensional magnets, fullerenes as atomic cages, superconductors, porous media, and laser assisted studies. The book is dedicated to Professor Robert Blinc, on the occasion of his seventieth birthday, in appreciation of his remarkable scientific accomplishments in the NMR of condensed matter.
Local-Moment Ferromagnets: Unique Properties for Modern Applications (Lecture Notes in Physics) Publisher: Springer | ISBN: 3540272860 | 302 pages | 2005 | DjVu
Some ferromagnetic materials with localized magnetic moments have become a hot topic of modern solid state physics because of their potential applications, e.g. in spintronic devices. The magnetic systems of interest comprise diluted magnetic semiconductors and half-metallic ferromagnets. Like conventional concentrated local-moment systems, they are characterized by an exchange interaction between localized magnetic moments and quasi-free charge carriers. The current research on local-moment ferromagnetism is reviewed in a tutorial style by leading experts in this field. Experimentalists present the latest approaches to characterize the unique material properties and theoreticians share decisive ideas to describe the observed phenomena theoretically. Students and researchers alike will benefit from this status report.
Electronic Structure and Physical Properties of Solids: The Uses of the LMTO Method Publisher: Springer | ISBN 3540672389 | 402 pages | 2000 | DjVu
A very comprehensive book, enabling the reader to understand the basic formalisms used in electronic structure determination and particularly the "Muffin Tin Orbitals" methods. The latest developments are presented, providing a very detailed description of the "Full Potential" schemes. This book will provide a real state of the art, since almost all of the contributions on formalism have not been, and will not be, published elsewhere. This book will become a standard reference volume. Moreover, applications in very active fields of today's research on magnetism are presented. A wide spectrum of such questions is covered by this book. For instance, the paper on interlayer exchange coupling should become a "classic", since there has been fantastic experimental activity for 10 years and this can be considered to be the "final" theoretical answer to this question. This work has never been presented in such a complete form.
From the Back Cover
This book displays the latest developments in the determinatioin of the electronic structure of solids and the physical properties which can be described from the electronic structure. Special emphasis is placed on the Linear Muffin Tin Orbital method for ground state and excited state calculation. The state-of-the-art of the formalisms is presented, from the venerable Atomic Sphere Approximation to the Full Potential schemes. The efficiency of this method is shown in various situations: magnetic properties, interlayer exchange coupling, metallic alloys, d- and f-electron systems. The latter part of the book is devoted to large-scale real-space calculations, including an introduction to sparse direct methods. With the aim of maximizing tutorial value, experts in each domain present over ten years of work, which has been published only in specialised papers before and now becomes available for researchers as well as students and teachers in solid state physics or materials science.
