Computer Simulation Studies in Condensedmatter Physics x

Computational methods pertaining to many branches of science, such as physics, physical chemistry and biology, are presented. The text is primarily intended for third-year undergraduate or first-year graduate students. However, active researchers wanting to learn about the new techniques of computational science should also benefit from reading the book.

Crystals are ubiquitous in daily life and technology. Many kinds of crystalline products, such as salt, sugar, and fat, are used in cooking, and electronic devices are made from semiconductor crystals. Crystals also play an important role in life and the global environment. Living organisms produce mineral crystals to maintain biogenic activity, and snow and ice crystals play a crucial role in climate change. For most topics related to crystals, crystal growth is an important research area.

This book focuses on a forensics-style re-examination of several historical events

This books aims at giving an overview over theoretical and phenomenological aspects of particle astrophysics and particle cosmology. To be of interest for both students and researchers in neighboring fields of physics, it keeps a balance between well established foundations that will not significantly change in the future and a more in-depth treatment of selected subfields in which significant new developments have been taking place recently.

This volume provides a compact presentation of modern statistical physics at an advanced level. Beginning with questions on the foundations of statistical mechanics all important aspects of statistical physics are included, such as applications to ideal gases, the theory of quantum liquids and superconductivity…
