Light and Color in the Outdoors
All of science springs from the observation of nature. In this classic book, the late Professor Minnaert accompanies the reader on a tour of nature's light and color and reveals the myriad phenomena that may be observed outdoors with no more than a pair of eyes and an enquiring mind. From the intriguing shape of the dapples beneath a tree on a sunny day, via rainbows, mirages, and haloes, the colors of liquid, ice, and the sky, to the appearance of the sun, moon, planets, and stars - Minnaert describes and explains them all in a clear language accessible to laymen. This new English edition is supplemented by 80 plates, over half of them in color, taken by the acclaimed photographer Pekka Parviainen, illustrating many of the phenomena - ordinary and exotic - discussed in the book.

Symmetry And Structural Properties Of Condensed Matter, Proceedings Of The 3rd International School On Theoretical Physics
This volume reviews some selected problems in solid state physics with an emphasis on adequate mathematical tools. The three main subjects are magnetic structures and neutron scattering; Berry phases and energy bands in solids (symmetry, analicity, Hofstadter butterfly, van Hove singularities); and quasicrystals, finite systems, and group action on sets (unitary group approach, Schur functions). Software presentations are included as a separate part.
