Book Synopsis Selected Scientific Papers of Sir Rudolf Peierls by : R H Dalitz
Download or read book Selected Scientific Papers of Sir Rudolf Peierls written by R H Dalitz and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1997-04-11 with total page 832 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of the major scientific papers of Sir Rudolf Peierls (1907–95), including the Peierls–Frisch Memoranda of 1940 on the feasibility, and the predicted human effects, of an atomic bomb made of uranium-235. His papers range widely in topic. They include much on the fundamentals of solid state physics, the thermal and electric conductivity of materials as a function of temperature T (especially T→0), the interpretation of the de Haas–van Alphen effect observed for a metal in a magnetic field, and the basics of transport theory. Many are on problems in statistical mechanics, including his constructive paper demonstrating the existence of a phase transition for Ising's model for a two-dimensional ferromagnet. In nuclear physics, they include the first calculations (with Bethe) on the photo-disintegration of the deuteron (made in response to a challenge by Chadwick), the Kapur–Peierls theory of resonance phenomena in nuclear reactions, the Bohr–Peierls–Placzek continuum model for complex nuclei (which first explained the narrow resonances observed for low energy neutrons incident on very heavy nuclei), and the Peierls–Thouless variational approach to collective phenomena in nuclei. Several of Peierls's wartime papers, now declassified, are here published for the first time. Brief commentaries on most of the papers in this book were added by Peierls, to indicate subsequent developments and their relationship with other work, or to correct errors found later on. A complete bibliography of his writings is given as an appendix.

Book Synopsis A Quantum Legacy by : Kimball A Milton
Download or read book A Quantum Legacy written by Kimball A Milton and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2000-05-25 with total page 808 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Julian Schwinger (1918–1994) was one of the giants of 20th Century science. He contributed to a broad range of topics in theoretical physics, ranging from classical electrodynamics to quantum mechanics, from nuclear physics through quantum electrodynamics to the general theory of quantum fields. Although his mathematical prowess was legendary, he was fundamentally a phenomenologist. He received many awards, including the first Einstein Prize in 1951, and the Nobel Prize in 1965, which he shared with Richard Feynman and Sin-itiro Tomonaga for the self-consistent formulation of quantum electrodynamics into a practical theory. His more than 70 doctoral students have played a decisive role in the development of science in the second half of this century. This important volume includes many of Schwinger's most important papers, on the above and other topics, such as the theory of angular momentum and the theory of many-body systems. The papers collected here continue to underlie much of the work done by theoretical physicists today.

Keywords:Spin and Angular Momentum;Nuclear Physics;Microwave Radiation;Synchrotron Radiation;Electrodynamics;Quantum Electrodynamics;Renormalization Theory;Quantum Field Theory;Quantum Mechanics;Many-Body Theory;Magnetic Charge;Casimir Effect;Source TheoryReviews: “Overall the presentation is excellent: the introductions bring Schwinger's work to life.” Mathematics Abstracts “… it is hard to imagine what physics would be like at the end of the millennium without the contributions of Julian Schwinger, a private man but a great scientist and a superb teacher with dozens of the now best established theoretical physicists among his students, including three Nobel laureates …” CERN Courier “Schwinger's work was independent, brilliant and often very original.” Mathematical Reviews
Book Synopsis The Origin Of The Third Family by : O Barnabei
Download or read book The Origin Of The Third Family written by O Barnabei and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1998-06-04 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1967 a group of physicists from the University of Bologna, led by A Zichichi, published a proposal to search for a heavy lepton using the Frascati (e+e-) collider. The proposal, whose key pages are reproduced in this book on the 30th anniversary of the publication, was the consequence of many years of work started at CERN, where, in addition to the original idea of searching for a heavy lepton carrying its own leptonic number, new technologies were invented to allow the detection of a signal whose identification against the high background of hadronic processes was extremely difficult.More than ten years of work by A Zichichi, together with his students and his collaborators, have paved the way for the discovery of the Third Family of fundamental particles. In this authoritative volume, a group of eminent physicists unequivocally establishes the origin of the Third Family of the basic constituents of matter.

This book was released on 2001-01-03 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: UNDER THE SPELL OF THE GAUGE PRINCIPLE — by G 't Hooft The University of Bologna and its Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with the Italian National Institute for Nuclear Physics and the Italian Physical Society, celebrated in 1998 the bicentenary of a great pioneer in the field of electric phenomena — Luigi Galvani, the father of macroelectricity. During these two centuries, the physics of electric phenomena has given rise first to the Maxwell equations, then to quantum electrodynamics, and finally to the synthesis of all reproducible phenomena, the “Standard Model”. A cornerstone of the Standard Model is quantum chromodynamics (QCD), which describes the interaction between quarks and gluons in the innermost part of the structure of matter. The discovery of QCD will be recalled in the future as one of the greatest achievements of mankind. Many physicists, the world over, have contributed to its creation on both the experimental and the theoretical front. Professor Antonino Zichichi has played an important role in this scientific venture, as documented by his works which are reproduced in this invaluable volume. One of the founders of European physics, Professor Victor F Weisskopf, contributes with his memories of the time when QCD had many problems. This volume owes its existence to a founding father of QCD, Professor Vladimir N Gribov, whose sudden demise prevented him from directly contributing to its final edition. Two world leaders in subnuclear theoretical physics, Professors Gerardus 't Hooft and Gabriele Veneziano, illustrate the significance of the contributions of Antonino Zichichi in QCD. Contents:Preface (O Barnabei et al.)Introduction (L N Lipatov)Three Problems Facing QCD (V F Weisskopf)The Creation of Quantum Chromodynamics (G 't Hooft)The Effective Energy and the Universality Features in QCD Processes (G Veneziano) Readership: High energy and mathematical physicists.

Book Synopsis From the Preshower to the New Technologies for Supercolliders by : Bjrn H. Wiik
Download or read book From the Preshower to the New Technologies for Supercolliders written by Bjrn H. Wiik and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2002 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the year 2000, the city of Bologna was the European Capital for Culture. For this reason, the University of Bologna and its Academy of Sciences, following the Gugliemo Marconi Centenary and the Luigi Galvani Bicentenary Celebrations, decided to call attention to the major achievements of their most distinguished members, in science and technology. This invaluable volume presents a series of inventions and technological developments, some thought of and directly implemented by Professor Antonino Zichichi, others suggested and developed under his leadership, all of them having contributed to the discovery of new particles and new phenomena in the field of subnuclear physics. The book was conceived by an eminent scientist, Professor Dr Björn H. Wiik, Director of Germany's most prestigious physics laboratory, DESY (Hamburg). It would not be published were it not for Professor Dr Albrecht Wagner, Chairman of the DESY Board of Directors, and Dr Horst Wenninger from CERN (Geneva), the greatest European physics laboratory.
