TitlePhysics and Music : Essential Connections and Illuminating Excursions
Author(s)Tsuji, Kinko;M??ller, Stefan C
PublicationCham, Springer International Publishing, 2021.
DescriptionXVIII, 424 p. 318 illus., 186 illus. in color : online resource
Abstract NoteThis book explores the fascinating and intimate relationship between music and physics. Over millennia, the playing of, and listening to music have stimulated creativity and curiosity in people all around the globe. Beginning with the basics, the authors first address the tonal systems of European-type music, comparing them with those of other, distant cultures. They analyze the physical principles of common musical instruments with emphasis on sound creation and particularly charisma. Modern research on the psychology of musical perception ??? the field known as psychoacoustics ??? is also described. The sound of orchestras in concert halls is discussed, and its psychoacoustic effects are explained. Finally, the authors touch upon the role of music for our mind and society. Throughout the book, interesting stories and anecdotes give insights into the musical activities of physicists and their interaction with composers and musicians

TitleSpirals and Vortices : In Culture, Nature, and Science
Author(s)Tsuji, Kinko;M??ller, Stefan C
PublicationCham, Springer International Publishing, 2019.
DescriptionXVI, 298 p. 197 illus., 133 illus. in color : online resource
Abstract NoteThis richly illustrated book explores the fascinating and ubiquitous occurrence of spirals and vortices in human culture and in nature. Spiral forms have been used as elements in the arts for thousands of years, whereas their role in nature and science ??? from DNA and sea shells to galaxies ??? is still a topic of investigation in numerous fields. Following an introduction to the cultural history of spiral forms, the book presents contributions from leading experts, who describe the origins, mechanisms and dynamics of spirals and vortices in their special fields. As a whole the book provides a valuable source of information, while also taking the reader on an aesthetic and scientific journey through the world of spiral forms

TitleBottom-Up Self-Organization in Supramolecular Soft Matter : Principles and Prototypical Examples of Recent Advances
Author(s)M??ller, Stefan C;Parisi, J??rgen
PublicationCham, Springer International Publishing, 2015.
DescriptionXIV, 293 p. 163 illus., 90 illus. in color : online resource
Abstract NoteThis book presents the general concepts of self-organized spatio-temporal ordering processes. These concepts are demonstrated via prototypical examples of recent advances in materials science. Particular emphasis is on nanoscale soft matter in physics, chemistry, biology and biomedicine. The questions addressed embrace a broad spectrum of complex nonlinear phenomena, ranging from self-assembling near the thermodynamical equilibrium to dissipative structure formation far from equilibrium. Their mutual interplay gives rise to increasing degrees of hierarchical order. Analogues are pointed out, differences characterized and efforts are made to reveal common features in the mechanistic description of those phenomena. ??

TitleNonlinear Physics of Complex Systems : Current Status and Future Trends
Author(s)Parisi, J??rgen;M??ller, Stefan C;Zimmermann, Walter
PublicationBerlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1996.
DescriptionXIII, 390 p. 143 illus : online resource
Abstract NoteThe review articles in this book treat the overall nonlinear and complex behavior of nature from the viewpoint of such diverse research fields as fluid mechanics, condensed matter physics, biophysics, biochemistry, biology, and applied mathematics. Attention is focussed on a broad and comprehensive overview of recent developments and perspectives. Particular attention is given to the so-far unsolved problem of how to capture the mutual interplay between the microscopic and macroscopic dynamics that extend over various length and time scales. The book addresses researchers as well as graduate students

TitleFrom Chemical to Biological Organization
Author(s)Markus, Mario;M??ller, Stefan C;Nicolis, Gregoire
PublicationBerlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1988.
DescriptionIX, 358 p : online resource
Abstract NoteOpen nonlinear systems are capable of self-organization in space and time. This realization constitutes a major breakthrough of modern science, and is currently at the origin of explosive developments in chemistry, physics and biology. Observations and numerical computations of nonlinear systems surprise us by their inexhaustible and sometimes nonintuitive variety of structures with different shapes and functions. But as well as variety one finds on closer inspection that nonlinear phenomena share universal aspects of pattern formation in time and space. These similarities make it possible to bridge the gap between inanimate and living matter at various levels of complexity, in both theory and experiment. This book is an account of different approaches to the study of this pattern formation. The universality of kinetic, thermodynamic and dimensional approaches is documented through their application to purely mathematical, physical and chemical systems, as well as to systems in nature: biochemical, cellular, multicellular, physiological, neurophysiological, ecological and economic systems. Hints given throughout the book allow the reader to discover how to make use of the principles and methods in different fields of research, including those not treated explicitly in the book

TitleEvolution of Spontaneous Structures in Dissipative Continuous Systems
Author(s)Busse, Friedrich H;M??ller, Stefan C
PublicationBerlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1998.
DescriptionX, 586 p : online resource
Abstract NoteThis collection of articles forms a cohesive text on the rapidly evolving field of nonlinear dynamics of continous systems. It addresses researchers but it can also be used as a text for graduate work. The authors demonstrate through numerous examples the use of common tools of mathematical analyses and dynamical interpretations for the study of nonlinear phenomena. Instead of providing a comprehensive overview of the rapidly evolving field, the contributors treat the essence of what is known about the formation of spontaneous structures in dissipative continuous systems and about the competition between order and chaos that characterizes those systems. The topics discussed in this volume range from mathematical foundations to interpretations of concrete phenomena in fluids, chemical reactions, structure forming processes in semiconductors and even biological organisms

TitleA Perspective Look at Nonlinear Media : From Physics to Biology and Social Sciences
Author(s)Parisi, J??rgen;M??ller, Stefan C;Zimmermann, Walter
PublicationBerlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1998.
DescriptionVIII, 376 p : online resource
Abstract NoteConcepts of nonlinear physics are applied to an increasing number of research disciplines. With this volume, the editors offer a selection of articles on nonlinear topics in progress, ranging from physics and chemistry to biology and some applications of social science. The book covers quantum optics, electron crystallization, cellular or flow patterns in fluids and in granular media, biological systems, and the control of brain structures via neuronal excitation. Chemical patterns are looked at both in bulk solutions and on surfaces in heterogeneous systems. From regular structures, the authors turn to the more complex behavior in biology and physics, such as hydrodynamical turbulence, low-dimensional dynamics in solid-state physics, and gravity
