This book provides a representative sampling of the latest advances
in theoretical physics. Chapters 1 and 2 deal with the Hydrogen
atom. In Chapter 1, Blaive and Cadilhac carry out an analysis of
hydrogenoid atomic wave functions. In Chapter 2, Boudet, Blaive
Geniyes and Vanel carry out a relativistic calculation with
retardation of the photoelectric effect of Hydrogen. Chapters 3 and
4 look at atoms in the presence of an external radiation field.
Chapter 3 by Dastidar and Dastidar examines above-threshold
ionisation of Argon in a laser field. In Chapter 4, Kazakov applies
the Jaynes-Cummings model to an atom interacting simultaneously
with a quasiresonant classical field and a quantised mode. Quantum
dynamical problems are addressed in Chapters 5 and 6. In Chapter 5,
Baute, Egusquiza and Muga study the effect of negative and
classically-forbidden momenta in one-dimensional quantum
scattering. Chapter 6 by Bellini finds analytical solutions to
reaction-diffusion equations by mapping on a time-independent
Schroedinger equation. Chapters 7 and 8 are devoted to nuclear and
particle physics. In Chapter 7, Kravchenko and Soznik obtain the
nucleon-nucleus optical potential in the nuclear matter
approximation with the generalised Skyrme interaction. In Chapter
8, Terasaki examines non-factorisable contributions in decays. The
final three chapters contain various mathematical studies which are
of interest to theoretical physics in general. In Chapter 9,
Shiqing analyses the equations of motion for the Newtonian n-body
problem. Riazi looks at the geometry and topology of solitons in
Chapter 10, and the book concludes with Chapter 11 containing a
study by Elipe of the rotations of perturbed triaxial rigid bodies.
These twelve chapters, written by scientists from around the world,
provide a representative sampling of the latest advances in
theoretical physics. The book is divided in five sections,
addressing the following topics: optics and quantum mechanics,
relativity and cosmology, nuclear physics, thermodynamics and
mathematics.
