Download or read book Elements of Phase Transitions and Critical Phenomena written by Hidetoshi Nishimori and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As an introductory account of the theory of phase transitions and critical phenomena, this book reflects lectures given by the authors to graduate students at their departments and is thus classroom-tested to help beginners enter the field. Most parts are written as self-contained units and every new concept or calculation is explained in detail without assuming prior knowledge of the subject. The book significantly enhances and revises a Japanese version which is a bestseller in the Japanese market and is considered a standard textbook in the field. It contains new pedagogical presentations of field theory methods, including a chapter on conformal field theory, and various modern developments hard to find in a single textbook on phase transitions. Exercises are presented as the topics develop, with solutions found at the end of the book, making the text useful for self-teaching, as well as for classroom learning.
Download or read book Crossover Stardom written by Julie Lobalzo Wright and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2017-12-28 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crossover Stardom: Popular Male Stars in American Cinema focuses on male music stars who have attempted to achieve film stardom. Crossover stardom can describe stars who cross from one medium to another. Although 'crossover' has become a popular term to describe many modern stars who appear in various mediums, crossover stardom has a long history, going back to the beginning of the cinema. Lobalzo Wright begins with Bing Crosby, a significant Hollywood star in the studio era; moving to Elvis Presley in the 1950s and 1960s, as the studio system collapsed; to Kris Kristofferson in the New Hollywood period of the 1970s; and ending with Will Smith and Justin Timberlake, in the contemporary era, when corporate conglomerates dominate Hollywood. Thus, the study not only explores music stardom (and music genres) in various eras, and masculinity within these periods, it also surveys the history of American cinema from industrial and cultural perspectives, from the 1930s to today.
Download or read book Field Theory The Renormalization Group And Critical Phenomena 2nd Edition written by Daniel J Amit and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 1984-08-31 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume links field theory methods and concepts from particle physics with those in critical phenomena and statistical mechanics, the development starting from the latter point of view. Rigor and lengthy proofs are trimmed by using the phenomenological framework of graphs, power counting, etc., and field theoretic methods with emphasis on renormalization group techniques. The book introduces quantum field theory to those already grounded in the concepts of statistical mechanics and advanced quantum theory, with sufficient exercises in each chapter for use as a textbook in a one-semester graduate course.

Download or read book Crossing written by Ben Rampton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 5 This is a new and enlarged edition of Ben Rampton's ground-breaking study of sociolinguistic processes in urban youth culture. It focuses on language crossing - the use of Panjabi by adolescents of African-Caribbean and Anglo descent, the use of Creole by adolescents with Panjabi and Anglo backgrounds, and the use of stylized Indian English. Its central question is: how far and in what ways do these intricate processes of language sharing and exchange help to overcome race stratification and contribute to a new sense of mixed youth, class and neighbourhood community? Ben Rampton produces detailed ethnographic and interactional analyses of spontaneous speech data, and integrates the discussion of particular incidents with theories of discourse, code-switching, social movements, resistance and ritual drawn from sociolinguistics, sociology, anthropology and cultural studies. Vivid descriptions of adolescent life in youth clubs and school playgrounds provide an important insight into the ways in which young people manage to 'live with difference', and full consideration is given to crossing's critical implications for education policy.
Download or read book High Spatial Resolution Investigation of Spin Crossover Phenomena Using Scanning Probe Microscopies written by Edna Magdalena Hernandez Gonzalez and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently a variety of nanoscale objects, including nanoparticles, thin films and nanometric assemblies, exhibiting molecular spin-state switching phenomena have been developed for applications in sensors, nanophotonic, nanoelectronic and nanomechanical systems. These spin crossover nanomaterials have been also reported to exhibit interesting size-dependent properties. Indeed, even if the origin of the spin crossover phenomenon is purely molecular, the macroscopic behavior of these systems in the solid state is strongly influenced by elastic interactions between the molecules. These cooperative properties and, in general, the phase diagram are expected to depend strongly on the size of the material. Beyond the phase stability, the transformation kinetics is likely to display also size dependence. Indeed, the strong elastic interactions in these materials lead, in many cases, to first-order phase transitions and phase separation phenomena. Details of the associated spatio-temporal dynamics of spin crossover systems remain largely unexplored. All these size dependent and spatially heterogeneous phenomena in spin crossover materials call for appropriate characterization methods with high spatial resolution imaging capability, but to date only far-field optical microscopy has been used to this aim. Hence, the overall objective of this PHD thesis was to develop new approaches allowing to trigger and detect the spin crossover phenomenon with nanometric spatial resolution. For the detection of the thermally induced spin crossover in thin films, we used for the first time Near-Field Scanning Optical Microscopy (NSOM) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) in conjunction with an original nano-heater device, based on Joule-heated metallic nanowires. Using these techniques the spin-state change in the films was inferred with sub-wavelength resolution through the associated optical and mechanical property changes of the material. Apertured NSOM used either in luminescence or reflectivity mode provided useful signal for detecting the spin-state switching phenomena, but rather limited quantification was possible due to sample stability issues (photobleaching, etc). On the other hand, AFM mechanical modes, including fast force spectroscopy and multifrequency analysis, allowed for quantitative and well-reproducible measurements with nanometric resolution. In particular, we have measured for the first time the increase of the Young's modulus (ca. 25-30 %) when going from the high spin to the low spin state and used this property for quantitative imaging of the spin transition. AFM measurements were also performed on spin crossover single crystals. We have shown that probe-sample thermal interactions can be used to manipulate the nucleation and propagation of the high spin and low spin phases in the crystals. On the other hand, these interactions make for difficulties for the AFM imaging of these phenomena. Nevertheless changes of the surface topography during the spin transition can be observed and discussed in conjunction with far-field optical microscopy and Raman spectroscopy data. The ensemble of these results open up new possibilities for the investigation and manipulation of these bistable objects at the nanoscale.
Download or read book Striving for Balance written by S. Gayle Baugh and published by IAP. This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Research in Careers series is designed in five volumes to provide scholars a unique forum to examine careers issues in today’s changing, global workplace. What makes this series unique is that the volumes are connected by the use of Mainiero and Sullivan’s (2006) Kaleidoscope Career Model (KCM) as the organizing framework and the theme underlying the volumes. In this volume, Striving for Balance, we consider how individuals seek a healthy alignment between work and nonwork. In addition to building upon the established literature on work/family conflict, the chapters in this volume also examine the reciprocal positive influences between work and nonwork, considering such issues as balancing work with commitments to others, including spouse/partner, children, elderly relatives, friends, and the community. Chapters 1 and 2 of this volume focus on macro?issues surrounding work/nonwork balance, specifically studying the effectiveness of organizational policies. In Chapter 1, Westring, Kossek, Pichler and Ryan explore if there is a gap between an organization’s adoption of work/nonwork policies and its offering of a supportive environment for the employees’ use of such policies. In Chapter 2, Purohit, Simmers, Sullivan and Baugh draw from social exchange theory and the compensation literature to examine how employees’ satisfaction with their organization’s discretionary (i.e., not legally required) support initiatives influences their work?related attitudes and personal well?being. Chapters 3 and 4 examine balance from a micro perspective, focusing on generational differences in balance as well as how individuals’ reactions to work?nonwork conflicts influence career outcomes. In Chapter 3, Stawiski, Gentry and Baranik study balance using the lens of generational differences, exploring the relationship between work?life balance and promotability for members of the Baby Boom generation and Gen X. In Chapter 4, Boyd, Keeney, Sinha and Ryan discuss their qualitative analysis of how 1,359 university alumni’s reactions to work?life conflict events shaped their career choices, including entry, participation, and attrition decisions. Their approach offers a different lens to examine work?life conflict. Chapters 5 and 6 provide two perspectives on where scholars should focus their future research efforts in studying work/nonwork balance. In Chapter 5, van Emmerik, Bakker, Westman and Peeters provide a conceptual examination of the processes that affect work?family conflict, family?work conflict, and the overall resulting work/nonwork balance or imbalance. In Chapter 6, Bataille offers a multi?dimensional definition of work?family balance and develops a framework, which recognizes the dominant dimensions of work-family balance.

Download or read book Cross Scale Coupling and Energy Transfer in the Magnetosphere Ionosphere Thermosphere System written by Yukitoshi Nishimura and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cross-Scale Coupling and Energy Transfer in the Magnetosphere-Ionosphere-Thermosphere System provides a systematic understanding of Magnetosphere-Ionosphere-Thermosphere dynamics. Cross-scale coupling has become increasingly important in the Space Physics community. Although large-scale processes can specify the averaged state of the system reasonably well, they cannot accurately describe localized and rapidly varying structures in space in actual events. Such localized and variable structures can be as intense as the large-scale features. This book covers observations on quantifying coupling and energetics and simulation on evaluating impacts of cross-scale processes. It includes an in-depth review and summary of the current status of multi-scale coupling processes, fundamental physics, and concise illustrations and plots that are usable in tutorial presentations and classrooms. Organized by physical quantities in the system, Cross-Scale Coupling and Energy Transfer in the Magnetosphere-Ionosphere-Thermosphere System reviews recent advances in cross-scale coupling and energy transfer processes, making it an important resource for space physicists and researchers working on the magnetosphere, ionosphere, and thermosphere. Describes frontier science and major science around M-I-T coupling, allowing for foundational understanding of this emerging field in space physics Reviews recent and key findings in the cutting-edge of the science Discusses open questions and pathways for understanding how the field is evolving
