R1,509 Discovery Miles 15 090 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

In einer quellenbasierten Studie gibt die Wissenschaftshistorikerin und Physikerin An Rettig einen lebendigen Einblick in das Streben von Heisenberg und Pauli nach einer einheitlichen Quantenfeldtheorie - von den Anfangen am Rande der Solvay-Konferenz 1927 bis zur Veroeffentlichung eines gemeinsamen Ansatzes und Paulis Tod 1958. Die Studie umfasst die Grundlagen, die Entwicklung und die physiktheoretischen Inhalte von Heisenbergs und Paulis Ansatz von 1958 und untersucht die Grunde fur dessen starke Ablehnung. Die Autorin berucksichtigt neben den physikalischen auch die zwischenmenschlichen Aspekte sowie den tiefen Wandel in der Physiker-Gemeinde uber die Vorstellung, was eine erfolgreiche Physik ausmacht und wie diese entstehen kann.

Measuring Nothing, Repeatedly - Null Experiments in Physics (Paperback): Allan Franklin, Ronald Laymon Measuring Nothing, Repeatedly - Null Experiments in Physics (Paperback)

R1,865 Discovery Miles 18 650 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

There have been many recent discussions of the 'replication crisis' in psychology and other social sciences. This has been attributed, in part, to the fact that researchers hesitate to submit null results and journals fail to publish such results. In this book Allan Franklin and Ronald Laymon analyze what constitutes a null result and present evidence, covering a 400-year history, that null results play significant roles in physics.

ssei Gelegenheit der Vorarbeiten zu einem Colleg uber Spektralanalyse wurde mir der Mangel an einem Lehrbuch uber diesen Abschnitt der Physik aufs Neue fuhlbar, nachdem ich ihn schon fruher bei eigenen Untersuchungen sehr empfunden hatte. In unseren Lehrbuchern der allgemeinen Physik wird dieses so interessante Gebiet ausserordentlich stiefmutterlich behandelt, die neueren Versuchsmethoden und Resultate finden sich fast nirgends angegeben, und die enormen Fortschritte, welche die Spektralanalyse in den letzten 15 Jahren - nament- lich durch englische Forscher - gemacht hat, bleiben meist unerwahnt. Von den speciellen Werken uber Spektralanalyse, deren es eine recht grosse Anzahl giebt, verfolgen die meisten den Zweck, in ganz popularer Form den Gegenstand zu behan- deln; in dieser Richtung hat Roscoe Ausgezeichnetes geleistet. Andere Werke sind zwar wissenschaftlicher gehalten, aber sie be- tonen dann nur einzelne Capitel oder einzelne Richtungen der Spektralanalyse; so hat das sehr empfehlenswerthe Buch von H. W. Vogel nur die praktische Analyse, namentlich die durch Absorptionsspektren im Auge. Auch die sehr starke, neueste Auflage der Schellen'schen Spektralanalyse lasst recht viel zu wunschen ubrig. Es bleibt daher einem Jeden, der sich eingehend mit der Sache beschaftigen will, nichts anderes ubrig als selbst an die Quellen zu gehen und die Tausende von Abhandlungen, die in zahllosen Zeitschriften verstreut sind, zu studiren. Als nun auch ich mich dieser nicht kleinen Arbeit unterzog, schien es mir doch zweckmassig, sie nicht nur fur mich zu unternehmen, sondern sie auch fur Andere verwerthbar zu machen, VI VORWORT.

Nuclear physics began long before the identification of fundamental particles, with J. J. Thomson's discovery of the electron at the end of the 19th century, which implied the existence of a positive charge in the atom to make it neutral. In this Very Short Introduction Frank Close gives an account of how this area of physics has progressed, including the recognition of how heavy nuclei are built up in the cores of stars and in supernovae, the identification of quarks and gluons, and the development of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Exploring key concepts such as the stability of different configurations of protons and neutrons in nuclei, Frank Close shows how nuclear physics brings the physics of the stars to Earth and provides us with important applications, particularly in medicine. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

R1,290 Discovery Miles 12 900 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book looks at the early history of nuclear power, at what happened next, and at its longer-term prospects. The main question is: can nuclear power overcome the problems that have emerged? It was once touted as the ultimate energy source, freeing mankind from reliance on dirty, expensive fossil energy. Sixty years on, nuclear only supplies around 11.5% of global energy and is being challenged by cheaper energy options. While the costs of renewable sources, like wind and solar, are falling rapidly, nuclear costs have remained stubbornly high. Its development has also been slowed by a range of other problems, including a spate of major accidents, security concerns and the as yet unresolved issue of what to do with the wastes that it produces. In response, a new generation of nuclear reactors is being developed, many of them actually revised versions of the ideas first looked at in the earlier phase. Will this new generation of reactors bring nuclear energy to the forefront of energy production in the future?

R1,619 Discovery Miles 16 190 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Terahertz (THz) radiation with frequencies between 100 GHz and 30 THz has developed into an important tool of science and technology, with numerous applications in materials characterization, imaging, sensor technologies, and telecommunications. Recent progress in THz generation has provided ultrashort THz pulses with electric field amplitudes of up to several megavolts/cm. This development opens the new research field of nonlinear THz spectroscopy in which strong light-matter interactions are exploited to induce quantum excitations and/or charge transport and follow their nonequilibrium dynamics in time-resolved experiments. This book introduces methods of THz generation and nonlinear THz spectroscopy in a tutorial way, discusses the relevant theoretical concepts, and presents prototypical, experimental, and theoretical results in condensed matter physics. The potential of nonlinear THz spectroscopy is illustrated by recent research, including an overview of the relevant literature.

Relativistic Quantum Field Theory, Volume 1 - Canonical Formalism (Paperback): Michael Strickland Relativistic Quantum Field Theory, Volume 1 - Canonical Formalism (Paperback)
Michael Strickland
R1,865 Discovery Miles 18 650 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Volume 1 of this three-part series introduces the fundamental concepts of quantum field theory using the formalism of canonical quantization. This volume is intended for use as a text for an introductory quantum field theory course that can include both particle and condensed matter physics students. Dr. Strickland starts with a brief review of classical field theory and uses this as a jumping off point for the quantization of classical field, thereby promoting them to proper quantum fields. He then presents the formalism for real and complex scalar field theories, fermion field quantization, gauge field quantization, toy models of the nuclear interaction, and finally the full Lagrangian for QED and its renormalization.

Vortices comprising swirling motion of matter are observable in classical systems at all scales ranging from atomic size to the scale of galaxies. In quantum mechanical systems, such vortices are robust entities whose behaviours are governed by the strict rules of topology. The physics of quantum vortices is pivotal to basic science of quantum turbulence and high temperature superconductors, and underpins emerging quantum technologies including topological quantum computation. This handbook is aimed at providing a dictionary style portal to the fascinating quantum world of vortices.
