In the Polish Secret War
Born in the Polish village of Gaj in 1923, Marian Mazgaj was a teenager when Germany invaded his country and launched Poland into the combat of World War II. Too young to join the Polish army, within a few years he became a member of the Sandomierz Flying Commando Unit, a unit which merged with the "Jedrus" Polish underground group. This memoir provides a vivid record of Mazgaj's career in the military. The Sandomierz Flying Commando Unit and the "Jedrus" underground were actively engaged in fighting the Nazi forces in Poland during World War II, and the author provides a first-hand account of the groups' roles in attacking and disarming German military units; destroying the enemy's grain warehouses and receiving air drops of weapons, ammunition, and explosives from the Allies. He also describes the incorporation of his partisan group into the Home Army, whereby he and his comrades became the Fourth Company in the Second Regiment of the Second Division, gaining strength and destroying many more German units.
Quantum Simulators
The last century has been characterized by the development of information theory and the consequent transformative impact of new technologies on societies around the world. It seems likely that the tremendous progress in nanoscience – the ability to manipulate microscopic systems at the level of a single atom – and the emergence of quantum information science, will be the key components of the next revolution; that of the new quantum technologies. Indeed, the ability to manipulate and control quantum systems has already found a variety of potential applications, ranging from the development of molecular nanoscale machines which exploit quantum coherence for their functioning, to metrolog...

Die polnische Heimatarmee
Die Armia Krajowa war im Zweiten Weltkrieg die zentrale Trägerin des bewaffneten Widerstandes im polnischen Untergrundstaat. Sie wurde von der polnischen Exilregierung in London gelenkt und 1944 von der Roten Armee gewaltsam aufgelöst. Der Sammelband bietet eine umfassende Darstellung der polnischen Heimatarmee seit 1939 und des schwierigen Umganges mit ihrer Geschichte. Vor dem Hintergrund der komplizierten ethnischen und territorialen Gemengelage in der Region werden neben dem internationalen Forschungsstand auch aktuelle Diskussionen in Polen, Deutschland und den Nachfolgestaaten der UdSSR transparent. Aus der Presse: "Das Militärgeschichtliche Forschungsamt hat mit diesem Buch einen Beitrag zur Aufhellung polnischer Zeitgeschichte und der deutsch-polnischen Beziehungen geleistet, der auf absehbare Zeit Bestand haben dürfte und hoffentlich dazu beiträgt, der Präsentation einer ebenso faszinierenden wie blutigen und tragischen Geschichte einen größeren Leserkreis zu verschaffen."
