This book was released on 1964 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The quantitative importance (almost dominance) of the electron-phonon interaction in the deviation of the electronic specific heat from the free electron value in simple metals is reported. Only the metals Na, Al and Pb were considered since for them (i) The band structure and the Fermi surfaces are relatively well known and (ii) The phonon dispersion curves have been measured. With this knowledge the calculations are performed with no adjustable parameters.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book includes all main physical properties of d- and f-transition-metal systems and corresponding theoretical concepts. Special attention is paid to the theory of magnetism and transport phenomena. Some examples of non-traditional questions which are treated in detail in the book: the influence of density of states singularities on electron properties; many-electron description of strong itinerant magnetism; mechanisms of magnetic anisotropy; microscopic theory of anomalous transport phenomena in ferromagnets. Besides considering classical problems of solid state physics as applied to transition metals, modern developments in the theory of correlation effects in d- and f-compounds are considered within many-electron models. The book contains, where possible, a simple physical discussion. More difficult questions are considered in Appendices.

This book was released on 2022-06-25 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of heavy fermions (HF) begun with the discovery of the low temperature behaviour of CeAl3 by Andres et al. in the year 1975 took the momentum after the discovery of superconductivity in CeCu2Si2 by Steglich et al. in the year 1979 . Though HF behaviour is common in the rare-earth elements like Ce, Yb and actinides like U, it is also found to exist in some of the praseodymium (Pr), samarium (Sm) , plutonium (Pu) and more recently in neptunium (Np) systems. These compounds are characterized by the presence of partially filled f-electron bands. At high temperatures, these magnetic moments manifest themselves as a weakly interacting set of local moments of the f electrons with Curie-Weiss susceptibility that coexists with light s or d conduction electrons. But at low temperature, these f-electrons hybridize with conduction electrons near Fermi level via Kondo spin fluctuation which happens through constant exchange spin-flip transition of f-electrons and band electrons in the vicinity of Fermi level. This process leads to a strong mixing of Fermi electrons with the localized f-electrons which is manifested in a renormalization of the Fermi surface and a drastic enhancement of the effective mass of the electrons at Fermi level. Further, in HF systems, electron-phonon interaction (EPI) contributes a lot in manifestation of some of the anomalous behaviour relating to elastic constant, ultrasonic attenuation & sound velocity, anisotropic Fermi surface, Kondo volume collapse etc. In this PhD thesis book in title “Electron phonon interaction and its effect in heavy fermion (HF) systems” the author tries to put some light into the behavoiour of Electron-phonon interaction in describing some of the properties of HF systems at low temperatures. In this 1 st edition, the book has been presented in multicolour edition with profuse colour illustrations so as to increase its clarity, understand ability and legibility, especially of the figures depicted to explain the low temperature behaviour of HF systems. It is hoped that the present book will serve its purpose in attracting young researchers to the field of HF systems. It is my foremost duty to express my deep sense of gratitute to my supervisor Dr. Pratibindhya Nayak , Professor Emeritus, School of Physics, Sambalpur University, Odisha, for his able guidance at every stage of this work.. His innovative methods and inspirational guidance have largely contributed to the conceptualization of the form and content of this book. I am indebted to my family members for their constant support. I am sincerely thankful to the publisher, Newredmars Education to bring my works into light in form of a book Healthy criticism and suggestions for further improvement of the book are solicited.

Book excerpt: Heat and mass transfer is the core science for many industrial processes as well as technical and scientific devices. Automotive, aerospace, power generation (both by conventional and renewable energies), industrial equipment and rotating machinery, materials and chemical processing, and many other industries are requiring heat and mass transfer processes. Since the early studies in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, there has been tremendous technical progress and scientific advances in the knowledge of heat and mass transfer, where modeling and simulation developments are increasingly contributing to the current state of the art. Heat and Mass Transfer - Advances in Science and Technology Applications aims at providing researchers and practitioners with a valuable compendium of significant advances in the field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical processes taking place in micro/nanoscale strongly depend on the material types and can be very complicated. Known approaches include kinetic theory and quantum mechanics, non-equilibrium and irreversible thermodynamics, molecular dynamics, and/or fractal theory and fraction model. Due to innately different physical bases employed, different approaches may involve different physical properties in describing micro/nanoscale heat transport. In addition, the parameters involved in different approaches, may not be mutually inclusive. Macro- to Microscale Heat Transfer: The Lagging Behavior, Second Edition continues the well-received concept of thermal lagging through the revolutionary approach that focuses on the finite times required to complete the various physical processes in micro/nanoscale. Different physical processes in heat/mass transport imply different delay times, which are common regardless of the material type. The delay times, termed phase lags, are characteristics of materials. Therefore the dual-phase-lag model developed is able to describe eleven heat transfer models from macro to nanoscale in the same framework of thermal lagging. Recent extensions included are the lagging behavior in mass transport, as well as the nonlocal behavior in space, bearing the same merit of thermal lagging in time, in shrinking the ultrafast response down to the nanoscale. Key features: Takes a unified approach describing heat and mass transport from macro, micro to nanoscale Compares experimental results for model validation Includes easy to follow mathematical formulation Accompanied by a website hosting supporting material Macro- to Microscale Heat Transfer: The Lagging Behavior, Second Edition is a comprehensive reference for researchers and practitioners, and graduate students in mechanical, aerospace, biological and chemical engineering.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work was begun quite some time ago at the University of Oxford during the tenure of an Overseas Scholarship of the Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851 and was completed at Banga lore when the author was being supported by a maintenance allowance from the CSIR Pool for unemployed scientists. It is hoped that significant developments taking place as late as the beginning of 1965 have been incorporated. The initial impetus and inspiration for the work came from Dr. K. Mendelssohn. To him and to Drs. R. W. Hill and N. E. Phillips, who went through the whole of the text, the author is obliged in more ways than one. For permission to use figures and other materials, grateful thanks are tendered to the concerned workers and institutions. The author is not so sanguine as to imagine that all technical and literary flaws have been weeded out. If others come across them, they may be charitably brought to the author's notice as proof that physics has become too vast to be comprehended by a single onlooker. E. S.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of cooperative phenomena is one of the dominant features of contem porary physics. Outside physics it has grown to a huge field of interdisciplinary investigation, involving all the natural sciences from physics via biology to socio logy. Yet, during the first few decades following the advent of quantum theory, the pursuit of the single particle or the single atom, as the case may be, has been so fascinating that only a small number of physicists have stressed the importance of collective behaviour. One outstanding personality among these few is Professor HERBERT FROHLICH. He has made an enormous contribution to the modern concept of cooperativity and has stimulated a whole generation of physicists. Therefore, it seemed to the editors very appropriate to dedicate a volume on "cooperative phenomena" to him on the occasion of his official retirement from his university duties. Nevertheless, in the course of carrying out this project, the editors have been somewhat amazed to find that they have covered the essentials of contemporary physics and its im pact on other scientific disciplines. It thus becomes clear how much HERBERT FROHLICH has inspired research workers and has acted as a stimulating discussion partner for others. FROHLICH is one of those exceptional scientists who have wor ked in quite different fields and given them an enormous impetus. Unfortunately, the number of scientists of such distinctive personality has been decreasing in our century.

Download or read book Elementary Electronic Structure written by Walter Ashley Harrison and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2004 with total page 866 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a revised edition of the 1999 text on the electronic structure and properties of solids, similar in spirit to the well-known 1980 text Electronic Structure and the Properties of Solids. The revisions include an added chapter on glasses, and rewritten sections on spin-orbit coupling, magnetic alloys, and actinides. The text covers covalent semiconductors, ionic insulators, simple metals, and transition-metal and f-shell-metal systems. It focuses on the most important aspects of each system, making what approximations are necessary in order to proceed analytically and obtain formulae for the properties. Such back-of-the-envelope formulae, which display the dependence of any property on the parameters of the system, are characteristic of Harrison's approach to electronic structure, as is his simple presentation and his provision of all the needed parameters.In spite of the diversity of systems and materials, the approach is systematic and coherent, combining the tight-binding (or atomic) picture with the pseudopotential (or free-electron) picture. This provides parameters ? the empty-core radii as well as the covalent energies ? and conceptual bases for estimating the various properties of all these systems. Extensive tables of parameters and properties are included.The book has been written as a text, with problems at the end of each chapter, and others can readily be generated by asking for estimates of different properties, or different materials, than those treated in the text. In fact, the ease of generating interesting problems reflects the extraordinary utility and simplicity of the methods introduced. Developments since the 1980 publication have made the theory simpler and much more accurate, besides allowing much wider application.
