Conductor Insulator Quantum Phase Transitions
When many particles come together how do they organize themselves? And what destroys this organization? Combining experiments and theory, this book describes intriguing quantum phases - metals, superconductors and insulators - and transitions between them. It captures the excitement and the controversies on topics at the forefront of research.
Physics of Spin-Orbit-Coupled Oxides
This book is aimed at graduate students, post docs and senior researchers with preliminary expertise in materials physics or chemistry, and with an interest in the physical and chemical properties of 4d- and 5d transition metal oxides, especially ruthenates and iridates. The 4d- and 5d-transition metal oxides are among the most current and interesting quantum materials. This book reviews recent experimental and theoretical evidence that the physical and structural properties of these materials are decisively influenced by strong spin-orbit interactions that compete with comparable Coulomb, magnetic exchange and crystalline electric field interactions. This competition often leads to unusual ...
Disorder and Superconductivity: a 21st-century update
Studying defects and imperfections in unconventional superconductors is paramount for fundamental and applied research. Defects play a multifaceted role, from decreasing quality and performance in some situations to enhancing desired properties in others, and as a useful probe and a tool to study the fundamental aspects of superconductivity. The examples are quantum decoherence in superconducting qubits, pinning and critical current in superconducting magnets, and in determining the symmetry of the order parameter, respectively. Studying defects and imperfections can provide insights into the underlying physics of unconventional superconductivity, shedding light on the mechanisms that govern the emergence of superconductivity in these materials, as well as the factors that limit their critical current densities and their stability at elevated temperatures and magnetic fields. Understanding the complex mechanisms through which defects influence the properties of superconductors is key to advancing the development and optimization of high performance superconducting materials for modern technologies.
Strongly Correlated Systems
The volume presents, for the very first time, an exhaustive collection of those modern theoretical methods specifically tailored for the analysis of Strongly Correlated Systems. Many novel materials, with functional properties emerging from macroscopic quantum behaviors at the frontier of modern research in physics, chemistry and materials science, belong to this class of systems. Any technique is presented in great detail by its own inventor or by one of the world-wide recognized main contributors. The exposition has a clear pedagogical cut and fully reports on the most relevant case study where the specific technique showed to be very successful in describing and enlightening the puzzling physics of a particular strongly correlated system. The book is intended for advanced graduate students and post-docs in the field as textbook and/or main reference, but also for other researchers in the field who appreciates consulting a single, but comprehensive, source or wishes to get acquainted, in a as painless as possible way, with the working details of a specific technique.
Naše znanstvenice
Knjiga je zasnovana kot zbirka prispevkov o znanstvenicah, ki so svojo znanstveno disciplino premaknile »korak naprej«. S tem imamo v mislih raziskovalke, profesorice, inovatorke, avtorice pomembnega znanstvenega preboja ali odkritja, patenta, ali pa znanstvenice, ki so v svoje znanstveno področje uvedle novo prakso in metodologijo, ustanovile inštitut oziroma oddelek, ali pa vzpostavile pogoje za razvoj novih znanstvenih disciplin. Profesionalne biografije 27 žensk predstavljenih v tej knjigi odkrijejo veliko več plasti tega kaj ukavrjanje z znanostjo dejansko zaobjema. Znanstveni prispevek žensk je prikazan skozi zgodbe o njihovem delu in življenju, ker profesionalno/javno nikoli ni ločeno od zasebnega/intimnega. Vprašanje kdo raziskuje nikoli ni ločeno od tega kaj oz. kateri predmet raziskuje in kako to počne. Eseji pripovedujejo zgodbo tudi o širšem družbenem prispevku, ki so ga znanstvenice pustile za sabo, ki gre bistveno onkraj ozko razumljenega znanstvenega dela. Tako knjiga želi prispevati tudi spreminjanju razumevanja kaj znanost je, kot proces ustvarjanja vednosti in znanja, kot človeško delo, družbena praksa in poslanstvo.
Selected Papers Of Lev P Gor'kov
The author of this unique volume, Lev P Gor'kov is internationally renowned for his seminal contribution in the fundamentals of the Theory of Superconductivity, Theory of Metals, the field of Quantum Statistical Physics, and more generally, Organic Metals and the like. Each reprints' group is preceded by the author's introductions and commentaries clarifying the formulation of a problem, summarizing the essence of the results and placing them in the context of recent developments. The author belongs to the last generation of scientists who were the direct disciples of the legendary Russian theorist Lev Landau. And Gor'kov's achievements reflect the unique style and the originality of this famous Scientific School. As with other Russian scientists of his generation, many of the pioneering papers by Lev Gor'kov have been published in the Russian journals that are hard-to-reach for modern readers, students and postdocs. Allowing readers a glimpse into the various ways that the field of condensed matter physics was evolving for more than half a century, the volume is a valuable source for historians of science.
