This Advanced Study Institute (ASI) brought together two distinct
."schools of approach" to Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) in the
presence of intense, external, electromagnetic fields, in an effort
to lay a joint foundation for a needed theoretical explanation of
the sharp e+ e- "resonances" observed in the scattering of very
heavy IOns. These (GSI/Darmstadt) experiments, whose history,
latest reconfirmations, and most recent data were presented in
three opening sessions (Bokemeyer, Koenig), show a smooth
background of positron (e+) production, as a function of e+ kinetic
energy. Superimposed upon this background are four very sharp
peaks, of narrow widths ( 30 KeV) and of clear experimental
significance ('" 5 standard deviations). Most ofthese peaks
correspond to sharp, essentially back-to-back electron-positron
emission in the ions' center of mass. Following the approach of
"supercritical" potential theory (SPT), where the total ionic
charge unit Z satisfies Z > 137, it has been possible to provide
a detailed and apparently correct understanding of the smooth e+ e-
background; a coherent description of different facets of this
approach, emphasizing the nature of the charged, supercritical
vacuum, was described by the authors responsible for the invention
of SPT (Greiner, Muller, Rafelski). In addition, predictions for
related phenomena were outlined by other lecturers using the SPT
approach (Bawin, Soff, SsJrensen)."
Neural Networks presents concepts of neural-network models and
techniques of parallel distributed processing in a three-step
approach: - A brief overview of the neural structure of the brain
and the history of neural-network modeling introduces to
associative memory, preceptrons, feature-sensitive networks,
learning strategies, and practical applications. - The second part
covers subjects like statistical physics of spin glasses, the
mean-field theory of the Hopfield model, and the "space of
interactions" approach to the storage capacity of neural networks.
- The final part discusses nine programs with practical
demonstrations of neural-network models. The software and source
code in C are on a 3 1/2" MS-DOS diskette can be run with
Microsoft, Borland, Turbo-C, or compatible compilers.
L'ouvrage traite d'un concept particulierement attractif du cours
de mecanique quantique avance, c'est a dire les symetries. Apres
une breve introduction aux symetries en mecanique classique, le
texte s'attache a leur place en mecanique quantique, aux
consequences de la symetrie de rotation, ainsi qu'a la theorie
generale des groupes de Lie. Les groupes isospin, l'hypercharge
SU(3), et leurs applications sont traites avant les chapitres sur
les quarks et leur charme, SU(4), ainsi que les symetries
dynamiques et les frontieres de la recherche en physique des
particules. Ce texte unique comprend plus de 120 problemes et
exercices tres detailles et corriges, afin d'en faire l'ouvrage de
reference en la matiere.
