Starbursts Triggers, Nature, and Evolution
Les Houches School, September 17–27, 1996
Häftad, 1998
554 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Starbursts are regions of unusually rapid star formation, often located in the central parts of galaxies. They differ from more normal regions of star formation in terms of the throughput of mass and the rapidity with which the gas is consumed. In the last twenty years, extensive observational data …
Branching in Nature
Dynamics and Morphogenesis of Branching Structures, from Cell to River Networks
Av V. Fleury, J. F. Gouyet m. fl.

Lägg i varukorg
Branching is probably the most common mode of growth in Nature. From plants to river networks, from lung and kidney to snow-flakes or lightning sparks, branches grow and blossom everywhere, in every realm of Nature. When Galileo Galilei stated that the geometry ofNature was written in terms …
Porous Silicon Science and Technology

The discovery of bright visible light emission from porous silicon has opened the door to various nanometer sized silicon structures where the confinement of carriers gives rise to interesting physical properties. While the high efficiency of the light emission in the visible range is the common …
Nonlinear Excitations in Biomolecules

Lägg i varukorg
In the last few years, hopes have emerged that simple concepts could perhaps explain the extremely complicated biomolecular processes which are now known to a greater accuracy. In parallel, powerful methods in physics, especially nonlinearity and co-operative effects, have been developed. They …

This book is an excellent introduction to the concept of scale invariance, which is a growing field of research with wide applications. It describes where and how symmetry under scale transformation (and its various forms of partial breakdown) can be used to analyze solutions of a problem without …
New Non-Perturbative Methods and Quantization on the Light Cone
Les Houches School, February 24 — March 7, 1997
Häftad, 1998
552 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Among the several distinct ways of formulating and quantizing a Hamiltonian system, the light cone approach enjoys special status because it has the largest stability group. The aim of this volume is to present recent achievements and open problems in this rather unusual quantization framework to a …
Starbursts: Triggers, Nature, and Evolution
