Methods of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics play an increasingly important role in modern turbulence research, yet the range of relevant tools and methods is so wide and developing so fast that until now there has not been a single book covering the subject. As an introduction to modern methods of statistical mechanics in turbulence, this volume rectifies that situation. The book comprises three harmonised lecture courses by world class experts in statistical physics and turbulence: John Cardy introduces Field Theory and Non-Equilibrium Statistical Mechanics; Gregory Falkovich discusses Turbulence Theory as part of Statistical Physics; and Krzysztof Gawedzki examines Soluble Models of Turbulent Transport. To encourage readers to deepen their understanding of the theoretical material, each chapter contains exercises with solutions. Essential reading for students and researchers in the field of theoretical turbulence, this volume will also interest any scientist or engineer who applies knowledge of turbulence and non-equilibrium physics to their work.

A unified introduction to information theory for scientistsApplications of information theory span a broad range of disciplines today. This book presents a unified treatment of the subject for students and practitioners in the sciences. It teaches the tools universally used by physicists working on quantum computers and black holes, engineers designing self-driving cars, traders perfecting market strategies, chemists playing with molecules, biologists studying cells and living beings, linguists analyzing languages, and neuroscientists figuring out how the brain works. No matter what area of science you specialize in, The Physical Nature of Information unlocks the power of information theory to test the limits imposed by uncertainty.Provides a panoramic approach to information theoryDraws on examples from physics, engineering, biology, economics, and linguisticsApplications range from thermodynamics and statistical mechanics to dynamical chaos, information and communication theories, and quantum informationIncludes materials for lectures and tutorials along with exercises with detailed solutionsCan be used to design a one-semester introductory courseIdeal for self-study by graduate students and advanced undergraduatesInvaluable for scholars seeking new research opportunities

The multidisciplinary field of fluid mechanics is one of the most actively developing fields of physics, mathematics and engineering. This textbook, fully revised and enlarged for the second edition, presents the minimum of what every physicist, engineer and mathematician needs to know about hydrodynamics. It includes new illustrations throughout, using examples from everyday life, from hydraulic jumps in a kitchen sink to Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities in clouds, and geophysical and astrophysical phenomena, providing readers with a better understanding of the world around them. Aimed at undergraduate and graduate students as well as researchers, the book assumes no prior knowledge of the subject and only a basic understanding of vector calculus and analysis. It contains forty-one original problems with very detailed solutions, progressing from dimensional estimates and intuitive arguments to detailed computations to help readers understand fluid mechanics.

Starting at the level of graduate students, this book offers a comprehensive introduction to a rapidly developing field of turbulence. It also presents the state of the art of the theory of wave turbulence in diverse media for researchers looking for a formalism to solve existing problems or for new research subjects and ideas. The book provides a general theory of developed wave turbulence in different media: plasmas, solids, atmosphere, oceans and space.The presentation starts with a simple and intuitive dimensional analysis and proceeds to a rigorous analytic theory with exact solutions for the stationary spectra of turbulence, stability theory of such spectra, description of nonstationary regimes and matching spectra with pumping and dissipation regions. The reader is provided with the necessary tools to study nonlinear waves and turbulence: Hamiltonian formalism, statistical description, derivation of kinetics equations and methods of finding their steady and non-steady solutions.In this second edition the book is brought up to date both in theoretical and experimental/observational aspects. In particular, the authors have updated and revised the description of nonstationary turbulence, turbulent entropy production, etc, and added discussions of master equation and several cases of strong turbulence and nonlocal cascades. The book now includes excercises, some with solutions.

Since the human organism is itself an open system, we are naturally curious about the behavior of other open systems with fluxes of matter, energy or information. Of the possible open systems, it is those endowed with many degrees of freedom and strongly deviating from equilibrium that are most challenging. A simple but very significant example of such a system is given by developed turbulence in a continuous medium, where we can discern astonishing features of universality. This two-volume monograph deals with the theory of turbulence viewed as a general physical phenomenon. In addition to vortex hydrodynamic turbulence, it considers various cases of wave turbulence in plasmas, magnets, atmosphere, ocean and space. A sound basis for discussion is provided by the concept of cascade turbulence with relay energy transfer over different scales and modes. We shall show how the initial cascade hypothesis turns into an elegant theory yielding the Kolmogorov spectra of turbulence as exact solutions. We shall describe the further development of the theory discussing stability prob lems and modes of Kolmogorov spectra formation, as well as their matching with sources and sinks. This volume is dedicated to developed wave turbulence in different media.
