Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Symmetries play a fundamental role in physics. Non-Abelian gauge symmetries are the symmetries behind theories for massless spin-1 particles, while the reparametrization symmetry is behind Einstein's gravity theory for massless spin-2 particles. In supersymmetric theories these particles can be connected also to massless fermionic particles. Does Nature stop at spin-2 or can there also be massless higher spin theories. In the past strong indications have been given that such theories do not exist. However, in recent times ways to evade those constraints have been found and higher spin gauge theories have been constructed. With the advent of the AdS/CFT duality correspondence even stronger indications have been given that higher spin gauge theories play an important role in fundamental physics. All these issues were discussed at a recent international workshop in Singapore where the leading scientists in the field participated. This volume presents an up-to-date, detailed overview of the theories including its historic background, as well as the latest accomplishments in understanding the foundational properties of higher spin physics.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This International Conference on Clifford AlgebrfU and Their Application, in Math ematical Phy,ic, is the third in a series of conferences on this theme, which started at the Univer,ity of Kent in Canterbury in 1985 and was continued at the Univer,iU de, Science, et Technique, du Languedoc in Montpellier in 1989. Since the start of this series of Conferences the research fields under consideration have evolved quite a lot. The number of scientific papers on Clifford Algebra, Clifford Analysis and their impact on the modelling of physics phenomena have increased tremendously and several new books on these topics were published. We were very pleased to see old friends back and to wellcome new guests who by their inspiring talks contributed fundamentally to tracing new paths for the future development of this research area. The Conference was organized in Deinze, a small rural town in the vicinity of the University town Gent. It was hosted by De Ceder, a vacation and seminar center in a green area, a typical landscape of Flanders's "plat pays" . The Conference was attended by 61 participants coming from 18 countries; there were 10 main talks on invitation, 37 contributions accepted by the Organizing Com mittee and a poster session. There was also a book display of Kluwer Academic Publishers. As in the Proceedings of the Canterbury and Montpellier conferences we have grouped the papers accordingly to the themes they are related to: Clifford Algebra, Clifford Analysis, Classical Mechanics, Mathematical Physics and Physics Models.

Download or read book Atomistic Spin Dynamics written by Olle Eriksson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to provide a theoretical foundation and an understanding of atomistic spin-dynamics (ASD), and to give examples of where the atomistic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation can and should be used. As argued in the text, a description of magnetism in an atomistic way is very natural and allows for an interpretation of experimental results in a clear and deep way. This description also allows for calculations, from first principles, of all parameters needed to perform the spin-dynamics simulations, without using experimental results as input to the simulations. As shown in the book, we are now at a very exciting situation, where it is possible to perform accurate and efficient atomistic simulations on a length- and time-scale which is balancing on the edge of what is experimentally possible. In this way, ASD simulations can both validate and be validated by state-of-the art experiments, and ASD simulations also have the possibility to act as a predictive tool that is able to explain the magnetization dynamics in experimentally inaccessible situations. The purpose of this book has been to communicate technically relevant concepts. An even larger motivation is to communicate an inspiration to magnetism and magnetization dynamics, and the emerging technological fields that one may foresee, e.g. in magnonics, solitonics and skyrmionics.
Download or read book The Many Faces of the Superworld written by Yuri Golfand and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2000 with total page 698 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This invaluable volume is dedicated to the memory of Yuri Golfand, one of the discoverers of supersymmetry. Together with his student, he constructed in 1970 the superextension of the Poincar algebra and obtained the first four-dimensional supersymmetric field theory, a version of supersymmetric QED. Golfand died in 1994 in Israel.Did the pioneers of supersymmetry ? Neveu, Schwarz, Ramond, Golfand, Volkov, Wess, Zumino and others ? foresee in the early 1970's that they would be opening to us the gates of the superworld? The superworld will become one of the most important components of our understanding of Nature ? a component that will stay with us forever.This book is a compilation of the original papers and review articles, devoted to various aspects of supersymmetry, written by the outstanding researchers in the field, theorists whose work shaped the present day theory and continues to make a profound impact on the frontier directions of the current development. A wide range of topics is covered ? from subtle results in the superstring theory to supersymmetry-based phenomenology. Most of the articles have been prepared specifically for this volume.The first part of the book consists of the Editor's essay presenting the basic stages of Golfand's life and work, the memoirs of his widow, Mrs N Koretz-Golfand and of his student, Dr E Likhtman. Also included is the article of Prof. M Marinov ?Revealing the Path to the Superworld?, outlining the main ideas that paved the way to the discovery of supersymmetry. The historical part of the book concludes with the English translation of the Golfand-Likhtman paper on supersymmetry published in 1972 in the Tamm Memorial Volume.
Download or read book A Clifford Analysis Approach to Higher Spin Fields written by Matthias Roels and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classical Clifford analysis is a generalisation of complex analysis to arbitrary dimension m. At the heart of the theory lies the Dirac operator, a conformally invariant first order differential operator which generalises the role of the Cauchy-Riemann operator. Moreover, the Laplace operator is the square of the Dirac operator, which means that Clifford analysis is a renement of harmonic analysis in m dimensions. While the classical theory is centred around the study of functions taking values in the spinor space, several authors have been studying generalisations of classical Clifford analysis techniques to the so-called higher spin theory. This concerns the study of higher spin operators acting on functions taking values in arbitrary irreducible representations of the spin group. In Clifford analysis, these arbitrary irreducible representations are traditionally defined in terms of polynomial spaces satisfying certain differential equations. From a physical point of view, higher spin fields arise quite naturally: it was shown by Bargmann and Wigner that group theory implies that particles should correspond to irreducible representations of the Lorentz group, labelled by a quantum number called spin. This led to generalisations of the Klein-Gordon and Dirac equation to higher spin equations (Dirac-Fierz-Pauli, Rarita-Schwinger, Buchdahl,...). Although particles with spin higher than one were never detected, a renewed interest in higher spin fields was triggered due to string theory. The reason is that the spectrum of the vibration modes of the strings includes an infinite number of fields of arbitrary increasing spin. With the advent of string theory, one was confronted with the fact that some theories require the space-time to have more than four dimensions. In higher dimensions, new kinds of fields are allowed because more general representations of the Lorentz group exist. In physics, these representations are typically defined as spaces of (traceless) tensors satisfying certain symmetry conditions expressed in terms of Young diagrams. The main goal of this thesis is twofold: in the first part, a proper introduction to Clifford analysis for physicists is given. The second part of this thesis focusses on higher spin fields where we first construct the two-spinor formalism. This is a framework to deal with arbitrary irreducible representations of the double cover of the Lorentz group. Then, this formalism will be linked with the polynomial spaces studied in Clifford analysis. While the two-spinor formalism works only in four dimensions, the polynomial models from Clifford analysis work in arbitrary dimensions and signatures. Finally, higher spin generalisations of the Maxwell equations are studied using techniques from Clifford analysis.
