| Title | Generalized Dynamics of Soft-Matter Quasicrystals : Mathematical models and solutions |
| Author(s) | Fan, Tian-You |
| Publication | Singapore, Springer Singapore, 2017. |
| Description | XVI, 184 p. 54 illus., 45 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The book systematically introduces the mathematical models and solutions of generalized hydrodynamics of soft-matter quasicrystals (SMQ). It provides methods for solving the initial-boundary value problems in these systems. The solutions obtained demonstrate the distribution, deformation and motion of the soft-matter quasicrystals, and determine the stress, velocity and displacement fields. The interactions between phonons, phasons and fluid phonons are discussed in some fundamental materials samples. Mathematical solutions for solid and soft-matter quasicrystals are compared, to help readers to better understand the featured properties of SMQ |

| Title | Probing Cosmic Dark Matter and Dark Energy with Weak Gravitational Lensing Statistics |
| Author(s) | Shirasaki, Masato |
| Publication | Singapore, Springer Singapore, 2016. |
| Description | XI, 136 p. 31 illus., 6 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | In this book the applicability and the utility of two statistical approaches for understanding dark energy and dark matter with gravitational lensing measurement are introduced.For cosmological constraints on the nature of dark energy, morphological statistics called Minkowski functionals (MFs) to extract the non-Gaussian information of gravitational lensing are studied. Measuring lensing MFs from the Canada???France???Hawaii Telescope Lensing survey (CFHTLenS), the author clearly shows that MFs can be powerful statistics beyond the conventional approach with the two-point correlation function. Combined with the two-point correlation function, MFs can constrain the equation of state of dark energy with a precision level of approximately 3???4 % in upcoming surveys with sky coverage of 20,000 square degrees. On the topic of dark matter, the author studied the cross-correlation of gravitational lensing and the extragalactic gamma-ray background (EGB). Dark matter annihilation is among the potential contributors to the EGB. The cross-correlation is a powerful probe of signatures of dark matter annihilation, because both cosmic shear and gamma-ray emission originate directly from the same dark matter distribution in the universe. The first measurement of the cross-correlation using a real data set obtained from CFHTLenS and the Fermi Large Area Telescope was performed. Comparing the result with theoretical predictions, an independent constraint was placed on dark matter annihilation. Future lensing surveys will be useful to constrain on the canonical value of annihilation cross section for a wide range of mass of dark matter |

| Title | Ti-Sb-Te Phase Change Materials: Component Optimisation, Mechanism and Applications |
| Author(s) | Zhu, Min |
| Publication | Singapore, Springer Singapore, 2017. |
| Description | XVI, 124 p. 83 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book introduces a novel Ti-Sb-Te alloy for high-speed and low-power phase-change memory applications, which demonstrates a phase-change mechanism that differs significantly from that of conventional Ge2Sb2Te5 and yields favorable overall performance. Systematic methods, combined with better material characteristics, are used to optimize the material components and device performance. Subsequently, a phase-change memory chip based on the optimized component is successfully fabricated using 40-nm complementary metal-oxide semiconductor technology, which offers a number of advantages in many embedded applications |

| Title | Manipulation of Near Field Propagation and Far Field Radiation of Surface Plasmon Polariton |
| Author(s) | Li, Lin |
| Publication | Singapore, Springer Singapore, 2017. |
| Description | X, 116 p. 80 illus., 74 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book mainly focuses on the study of steering electromagnetic fields in near-field and far-field contexts involving plasmonic structures. It also offers a new approach to achieving full control of optical polarizations and potentially boosting the development in photonic information processing. A new in-plane phase modulation method is proposed and described, by means of which a series of optical beams were realized with nanostructures in metal surfaces, such as a plasmonic Airy beam, broad band focusing beam, and demultiplexing, collimated beam, as well as an optical orbital angular momentum (OAM) beam. Further, the book presents a plasmonic polarization generator, which can reconfigure an input polarization to all kinds of states simultaneously |

| Title | Gravity, Weight and Their Absence |
| Author(s) | Pletser, Vladimir |
| Publication | Singapore, Springer Singapore, 2018. |
| Description | XIII, 88 p. 40 illus., 27 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The book introduces readers to the concept of weightlessness and microgravity, and presents several examples of microgravity research in fluid physics, the material sciences and human physiology. Further, it explains a range of basic physical concepts (inertia, reference frames, mass and weight, accelerations, gravitation and weightiness, free fall, trajectories, and platforms for microgravity research) in simple terms. The last section addresses the physiological effects of weightlessness. The book???s simple didactic approach makes it easy to read: equations are kept to a minimum, while examples and applications are presented in the appendices. Simple sketches and photos from actual space missions illustrate the main content. This book allows readers to understand the space environment that astronauts experience on board space stations, and to more closely follow on-going and future space missions in Earth orbit and to Mars |

| Description | XV, 132 p. 56 illus., 44 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book focuses on understanding the stellar populations of massive star clusters, which aims to investigate the origin, evolution and properties of binary systems, their collision products, as well as the general characteristics (e.g. ages, metal content) of stellar population(s) in star clusters. It introduces the basic background knowledge of various stellar populations in star clusters as well as their formation, interaction and evolution, offering high impact observational results on our understanding of the formation and evolution mode of star clusters. Based on these discoveries, this book proposes a series of future projects that will shed light on these topics. The works that introduced in this book will have the unique potential to reveal the key features of star clusters formation and by extension how all stars formed in our universe |

| Title | Formulation of Statistical Mechanics Based on Thermal Pure Quantum States |
| Author(s) | Sugiura, Sho |
| Publication | Singapore, Springer Singapore, 2017. |
| Description | XII, 73 p. 4 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This thesis introduces the concept of "thermal pure quantum (TPQ) states", which are pure quantum states in equilibrium. The author establishes a new formulation of statistical mechanics based on the TPQ states. This formulation allows us to obtain not only mechanical variables but also thermodynamic variables such as entropy and free energy from a single TPQ state. Furthermore, the formulation provides a new physical description in which all fluctuations including thermally driven ones are uniquely identified to be quantum fluctuations. The use of TPQ formulation has practical advantages in its application to numerical computations and allows for significant reduction in computation cost in numerics. For demonstration purposes, a numerical computation based on TPQ formulation is applied to a frustrated two-dimensional quantum spin model, and the result is also included in this book. |
