  • Publisher: Elsevier

Valence bond (VB) theory, which builds the descriptions of molecules from those of its constituent parts, provided the first successful quantum mechanical treatments of chemical bonding. Its language and concepts permeate much of chemistry, at all levels. Various modern formulations of VB theory represent serious tools for quantum chemical studies of molecular electronic structure and reactivity. In physics, there is much VB-based work (particularly in semi-empirical form) on larger systems. Importance of Topic The last decade has seen significant advances in methodology and a vast increase in the range of applications, with many new researchers entering the field. Why This Title Valence Bond Theory succeeds in presenting a comprehensive selection of contributions from leading valence bond (VB) theory researchers throughout the world. It focuses on the vast increase in the range of applications of methodology based on VB theory during the last decade and especially emphasizes recent advances.

String Theory in Curved Space Times

The main goal and impact of modern string theory is to provide a consistent quantum theory of gravity. This book provides an updated collection of original new developments and fundamental research in string theory in connection with gravity and physics at the Planck energy scale. Topics treated in this volume by pioneering researchers in the field include: classical and quantum string dynamics in strong gravitational fields, space-time singularities, black holes and cosmological backgrounds; particle and string scattering at the Planck energy scale; string cosmology and its observational consequences; the new features of multistrings and of quantum particle transmutation for strings in curv...

Low Dimensional Physics and Gauge Principles

This is a collection of articles on fundamental physical principles and methods, the topics ranging from matrix models, random surfaces, quantum dots and rings, to black holes, cosmology and testing of the tiny effects predicted by General Relativity. Among the authors are Sir Roger Penrose and other well-known experts and the articles are addressed to graduate students and researchers. The volume is a Festschrift to a noted physicist and mentor Sergei Matinyan. Contents:A Matrix Model Representation of the Integrable XXZ Heisenberg Chain on Random Surfaces (J Ambjørn and A Sedrakyan)Magnetization and Concurrence Properties of Diamond Chain: Two Approaches (N S Ananikian, H A Lazaryan, M A ...

Progress and Perspective in the Treatment of Lung Cancer

This volume provides a comprehensive account of the progress that has been made in the treatment of lung cancer. The various therapeutic approaches are documented and appraised, with particular emphasis being placed on the benefits of a multimodality strategy. A balance is sought between US and European perspectives, and all of the authors are recognized experts in the field.

Recent Progress in Random Magnets

Spin glasses exhibit random magnetic ordering as a result of competing interactions such as exchange or anisotropy. While they are easily prepared, and many of their general properties have been described, a detailed understanding of their behaviour is still lacking after more than 30 years of study. This book reviews the progress that has been made over the last five years on several aspects of the spin glass problem. Unlike several recent books, the authors concentrate here on experimental results, limiting the theoretical discussion to efforts most directly related to such work. The field of spin glasses, or more generally random magnets, continues to attract the interest of researchers w...
