The Elements of Nonlinear Optics
There has recently been a rapid growth of activity in nonlinear optics. Effects such as frequency doubling, stimulated Raman scattering, phase conjugation and solitons are of great interest both for their fundamental properties and their many important applications in science and engineering. It is mainly these applications - especially in telecommunications and information processing - that have stimulated the recent surge of activity. This book is a self contained account of the most important principles of nonlinear optics. Assuming only a familiarity with basic mathematics, the fundamentals of nonlinear optics are fully developed from basic concepts. The essential quantum mechanical apparatus is introduced and explained. In later chapters the underlying ideas are illustrated by discussing particular experimental configurations and materials. This book will be an invaluable introduction to the field for beginning graduates in physics or engineering, and will provide an excellent overview and reference work for active researchers in the field.
Mud and Snow
Mud and Snow: Into Russia and Back is an artfully woven novel by Marc Hetzel. Hetzel's gripping novel is based on true life events and follows the life of a World War II veteran. Walter Hetzel, a butcher's son is thrust into war when he's a young man. Walter leaves his boyhood home in Chemnitz and trains for active duty in Krakow, Poland. Walter's tour of duty takes him to the Russian front where he's captured near Vitebsk and then sent to Moscow. While there, Walter makes friends with the other prisoners but learns the devastation of war up close and personal. Walter spends several years as a POW; and after returning home finds his home forever changed-as he is. Hetzel writes with incredible clarity, expertly capturing the mood, setting, and inner-workings of a young man losing his innocence while being exposed to horrific events and situations. Based on true-life events, his novel will haunt your conscience long after you've turned the last page. Marc Hetzel is a writer and works in the poker industry.
Many-Particle Physics
The first, second, and third editions of this book seem to occur at ten year intervals. The intent is to keep the book up-to-date. Many-body theory is a field which continually evolves in time. Journals only publish new results, conferences only invite speakers to report new phenomena, and agencies only fund scientists to do new physics. Today's physics is old hat by tomorrow. Students want to learn new material, and textbooks must be modified to keep up with the times. The early chapters in this book teach the techniques of many-body theory. They are largely unchanged in format. The later chapters apply the techniques to specific problems. The third edition increases the number of applicati...
You Might Be Bad For Me
From best selling author W. Winters, comes a collection dark romance readers have been begging for… He’ll burn the world for me. He’s shown me that truth more than once. His dark gaze holds a secret that filled with turmoil and regret. And his lips on mine, his hands on my body… There’s nothing I want more. Even if he is bad for me. The standalone novels included are: It’s Our Secret, Possessive and A Kiss to Tell. These three dark romance novels gently pull you into the merciless world most know as All He’ll Ever Be. It is dark, seductive and addictive. Enjoy this bingeable collection.
Impurity Scattering in Metallic Alloys
Since the introduction of quantum mechanics, the general theory of solid state physics has developed very rapidly. To date, a number of good textbooks on general solid state physics have been written. However, research in solid state physics has become highly specialized and undertaken in narrow fields. There is thus a great need for elementary textbooks that deal in detail with the study of solids in a particular field in order to give students basic knowledge in that field. Metallic solids with an impurity, generally called alloys, are of immense importance from both fundamental and technological points of view. The pioneering work of Bloember gen and Rowland (1953) gave considerable impet...
Wildlife Research in Australia
Wildlife Research in Australia: Practical and Applied Methods is a guide to conducting wildlife research in Australia. It provides advice on working through applications to animal ethics committees, presents general operating procedures for a range of wildlife research methods, and details animal welfare considerations for all Australian taxa. Compiled by over 200 researchers with extensive experience in field-based wildlife research, teaching and animal ethics administration, this comprehensive book supports best practice research methods and helps readers navigate the institutional animal care approval process. Wildlife Research in Australia will help foster a national approach to wildlife research methods, and is an invaluable tool for researchers, teachers, students, animal ethics committee members and organisations participating in wildlife research and other activities with wildlife.
Electronic Excitations at Metal Surfaces
In this new work, the focus is on the dynamical response of metal electrons to several types of incident electromagnetic fields. The author, an eminent theorist, discusses Time-Dependent Local Density Approximation's importance in both elucidating electronic surface excitations and describing the ground state properties of electronic systems. Chapters detail theoretical formulations and computational procedures, covering such areas as single-particle and collective modes, spatial distribution of the induced surface charges, and local electric fields. Excitation spectra are shown for a variety of clean simple metals, noble metals, chemisorbed overlayers, charged surfaces, and small metal particles.
Electron Correlation in Molecules and Condensed Phases
This book had its origins in lectures presented at EPFL, Lausanne, during two separate visits (the most recent being to IRRMA). The author is most grateful to Professors A. Baldereschi, R. Car, and A. Quattropani for making these visits possible, and for the splendidly stimulating environment provided. Professors S. Baroni and R. Resta also influenced considerably the presentation of material by constructive help and comments. Most importantly, Chapters 4 and 5 were originally prepared for a review article by Professor G. Senatore, then at Pavia and now in Trieste, and myself for Reviews of Modem Physics (1994). In the 'course of this collaboration, he has taught me a great deal, especially ...
