Beskrivning
Quantum phase transitions (QPTs) offer wonderful examples of the radical macroscopic effects inherent in quantum physics: phase changes between different forms of matter driven by quantum rather than thermal fluctuations, typically at very low temperatures. QPTs provide new insight into outstanding problems such as high-temperature superconductivit
Lincoln Carr has produced an epic survey of the current state of knowledge of quantum phase transitions which nicely complements the classic textbook by Subir Sachdev … a thorough overview of methods in current use and recent results.—Keith Benedict, Contemporary Physics, May 2012
Innehållsförteckning
New Directions and New Concepts In Quantum Phase Transitions. Progress in Model Hamiltonians and in Specific Systems. Experimental Realizations of Quantum Phases and Quantum Phase Transitions. Numerical Solution Methods for Quantum Phase Transitions. Quantum Phase Transitions Across Physics.
