| Indexation : |
530.12 Mécanique quantique |
| Résumé : |
This book adopts a novel, physics-first approach to quantum measurement, using physical experiments as the basis to describe the underlying mathematical formalism. Topics covered include weak measurements, quantum measurement reversal, quantum trajectories and the stochastic path integral formalism. The theory of quantum measurement is also covered in detail, including discussion of how it can be tested and demonstrated in a laboratory: how to build quantum-limited amplifiers, fundamental noise limits imposed on measurement by quantum mechanics, and the design of superconducting circuits. This text is an excellent introduction for students with a basic understanding of quantum mechanics wanting to learn more about measurement theory, and the inclusion of a wide selection of end-of-chapter exercises make this book ideal for emerging courses on the topic. Key chapters introducing the foundations of quantum computing and the history of measurement theory are equally accessible to a broader, less specialised audience. |

| Résumé : |
Superconductivity is among the most exciting of quantum phenomena in condensed matter physics, and has important applications across science and technology, from fusion reactors to particle accelerators. This self-contained text provides a comprehensive account of the physical foundations of superconductivity and related recent developments in the field. Beginning with a detailed description of the BSC theory of superconductivity, the book then describes the subsequent successes of this landmark theory and proceeds to more advanced topics such as Josephson effects and vortices. The strong coupling theory of superconductivity is introduced in later chapters, providing a springboard to important current research on hydride superconductors, which have displayed very high critical temperatures. Recent manifestations of superfluidity in ultracold atoms physics are also described. This book will give readers a solid grounding in the theory and applications of superconductivity, and an appreciation of its broader importance in the field of modern condensed matter physics.

Foundation of Molecular Quantum Elecrodynamics |
| Type de document : |

| Auteur : |
R.Guy Woolley, Author |
| Editeur : |
Cambridge : Cambridge University Press |
| Date de publication : |

| ISBN (ou autre code) : |
978-1-00-922576-2 |
| Langue : |

| Indexation : |
530.12 Mécanique quantique |
| Note de contenu : |
Foundations of Molecular Quantum Electrodynamics is an advanced textbook that provides a comprehensive and rigorous introduction to molecular quantum electrodynamics (QED) — the theory describing how molecules interact with electromagnetic fields at the quantum level.
The book is structured in three major parts:
Classical Electrodynamics and Mechanics:
The first section revisits the essential principles of classical electrodynamics and mechanics using tools such as Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalisms. It sets the mathematical foundation needed before moving into quantum theory.
Quantum Mechanics Foundations:
The second section focuses on quantum mechanics fundamentals, especially how they relate to molecular systems. It covers key concepts like the Coulomb Hamiltonian and modern treatments of approximations such as the Born-Oppenheimer approximation (which separates electronic motion from nuclear motion in molecules).
Non-Relativistic Quantum Electrodynamics:
The final section dives into non-relativistic QED, explaining how atoms and molecules interact with light. This includes detailed discussions of frameworks such as the Power-Zienau-Woolley (PZW) representation and both perturbative and non-perturbative approaches to QED calculations. |

551.4 Géomorphologie et hydrologie générale : création et modification du relief |
| Résumé : |
Wilfried Brutsaert (2022 Stockholm Water Prize Laureate) has revised and updated his classic textbook to take into account recent developments, while retaining the rigor and structure of the previous edition to introduce the fundamental principles of hydrology. New topics include the response of the global water cycle to climate change, the land surface energy budget closure, snow melt, groundwater trends and statistical surface variability with disturbed atmospheric boundary layers. Hydrologic phenomena are dealt with at the spatial and temporal scales at which they occur in nature. The physics and mathematics necessary to describe these phenomena are introduced and developed: readers will require a working knowledge of calculus and basic fluid mechanics. This classroom-tested textbook [xe2][x80][x93] based on the author's long-running course at Cornell - is invaluable for entry-level courses in hydrology directed at advanced undergraduate and graduate students in physical science and engineering. In addition, it is also a great reference text for practising scientists and engineers |
