Geometry in Condensed Matter Physics
The subject of geometry has become an important ingredient in condensed matter physics. It appears not only to describe, but also to explain structures and their properties. There are two aspects to using geometry: the visual and intuitive understanding, which fosters an immediate grasp of the objects one studies, and the abstract tendency so well developed in the Riemannian manifold theory. Both aspects contribute to the same understanding when they are applied to the main problems occurring in condensed matter sciences. Sophisticated structures found in nature appear naturally as the result of simple constraints which are presented in geometrical terms. Blue phases, amorphous and glassy materials, Frank and Kasper Metals, quasi-crystals are approached in their complexity, using the simple principles of geometry. The relation between biology and liquid crystal sciences, the physics of membranes is a fundamental aspect presented in this book.
Geometry and Thermodynamics
Distinct scientific communities are usually involved in the three fields of quasi-crystals, of liquid crystals, and of systems having modulated crystalline structures. However, in recent years, there has been a growing feeling that a number of common problems were encountered in the three fields. These comprise the need to recur to "exotic" spaces for describing the type of order of the atomic or molecular configurations of these systems (Euclidian "superspaces" of dimensions greater than 3, or 4-dimensional curved spaces); the recognition that one has to deal with geometrically frustrated systems, and also the occurence of specific excitations (static or dynamic) resulting from the continuo...
Physical Review
Publishes papers that report results of research in statistical physics, plasmas, fluids, and related interdisciplinary topics. There are sections on (1) methods of statistical physics, (2) classical fluids, (3) liquid crystals, (4) diffusion-limited aggregation, and dendritic growth, (5) biological physics, (6) plasma physics, (7) physics of beams, (8) classical physics, including nonlinear media, and (9) computational physics.
Physique générale
Cet ouvrage présente les différents domaines de la physique : mécanique, électrodynamique, thermodynamique, acoustique, optique et physique atomique. L'auteur les illustre de nombreux exemples tirés des sciences de la nature et de la vie, de l'astronomie à la physique elle-même, de la biologie aux sciences de la Terre, en proposant une explication des phénomènes plutôt que d'insister sur leur description formelle. Afin de mieux illustrer la matière proposée, l'auteur relate quelques épisodes de l'histoire des découvertes scientifiques, soulignant ainsi l'aspect culturel de l'histoire des sciences. L'aspect mathématique n'occupe jamais le devant de la scène : l'exposé est él...
Liquid Matter, Proceedings of the First Liquid Matter Conference of the European Physical Society, Lyon, France, 7-11 July 1990
Recent trends and progress in the field of liquid matter are explored in this volume via a broad spectrum of contributions from liquid state physicists, chemists and chemical engineers. It is devoted to the microscopic, mesoscopic and macroscopic aspects of the liquid state of matter. Physicists, chemists and chemical engineers working on a wide variety of experimental and theoretical aspects of simple and complex liquids should find Liquid Matter invaluable in giving a clearer, more global picture of the liquid state.

Structure in Nature Is a Strategy for Design
"The structural designs that occur in nature - in molecules, in crystals, in living cells - appear in this fully illustrated book as a source of inspiration and study of design of man-made structures" -- BOOK JACKET.
