The Holstein Diamonds
Everyone has heard the old adage twos a couple, threes a crowd. But four greedy German soldiers in 1942, all after the same elusive fortune in diamonds? Honor among thieves? Who mentioned anything about honor? Would there even be a last man standing after the smoke cleared and the international intrigue ended? And just why did these murderers flee all the way from Germany to Lenoir County, North Carolina? Just another baffling mystery waiting to be sorted out by longtime Lenoir County District Attorney Newt Wildman and his intrepid investigators. Welcome to another gripping Coastal Plains Mystery, the tenth in the series.
Microcanonical Thermodynamics
Boltzmann's formula S = In(W(E) defines the microcanonical ensemble. The usual textbooks on statistical mechanics start with the microensemble but rather quickly switch to the canonical ensemble introduced by Gibbs. This has the main advantage of easier analytical calculations, but there is a price to pay -- for example, phase transitions can only be defined in the thermodynamic limit of infinite system size. The question how phase transitions show up from systems with, say, 100 particles with an increasing number towards the bulk can only be answered when one finds a way to define and classify phase transitions in small systems. This is all possible within Boltzmann's original definition of...
Dynamics and Thermodynamics of Systems with Long Range Interactions: Theory and Experiments
The workshop was about the developments of the thermodynamical and dynamical behavior of many-body systems in which the interactions decay very slowly with the distance: they present very strange properties, not found in the other systems. The possibility of testing the theoretical ideas in laboratory systems was the most innovative issue.
Dynamics and Thermodynamics of Systems with Long Range Interactions
Properties of systems with long range interactions are still poorly understood despite being of importance in most areas of physics. The present volume introduces and reviews the effort of constructing a coherent thermodynamic treatment of such systems by combining tools from statistical mechanics with concepts and methods from dynamical systems. Analogies and differences between various systems are examined by considering a large range of applications, with emphasis on Bose--Einstein condensates. Written as a set of tutorial reviews, the book will be useful for both the experienced researcher as well as the nonexpert scientist or postgraduate student.
Critical Phenomena and Collective Observables
CRIS (Catania Relativistic Ion Studies) is a new series of Topical Conferences to be held at regular intervals in Catania or in its environs. Aim of the CRIS Conferences is to gather active researchers from several countries to discuss specific hot topics in the field of heavy ion physics. The first CRIS Conference, CRIS '96, has been devoted to “Critical Phenomena and Collective Observables”, a quite hot topic after the recent experimental evidences of a liquid-gas phase transition in finite nuclei found by the EOS and ALADiN Collaborations and the progress made in the understanding of the relevance of collective observables, like flow and balance energy for the study of the Nuclear Equ...
