| Title | Physics and Technology of Ultracold Atomic Gases |
| Author(s) | Onofrio, Roberto;Salasnich, Luca |
| Publication | Cham, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Switzerland, 2024. |
| Description | X, 199 p. 51 illus., 34 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book is based on lecture notes originally developed for introductory graduate courses offered by the authors at Dartmouth College and the University of Padova. The first two chapters analyze quantum degenerate gases and various cooling and trapping techniques for atoms. The remaining three chapters discuss ultracold atoms as weakly interacting, strongly interacting, and non-interacting coherent systems. The third chapter presents multiple pieces of evidence for quantum degeneracy in Bose and Fermi gases, followed by peculiar features such as superfluidity and the formation of topological defects. The fourth chapter addresses strongly correlated systems, discussing the BCS-BEC crossover in fermionic gases and quantum phase transitions, including their dependence on effective dimensionality. The fifth chapter offers a more specific discussion of quantum coherence in ultracold atoms and their potential as a platform for quantum metrology and quantum emulation. Four appendices provide more quantitative details of theoretical tools used in the last two chapters. Each chapter concludes with problems and a list of more specialized material. The main goal is to introduce interested students to ultracold atom physics research topics and expose scientists working in other areas of frontier physics to this novel and exciting research direction. This book is also intended to complement existing textbooks in standard courses on condensed matter physics, demonstrating how some general elements of the latter can be understood by continuously increasing the interactions between ultracold and quantum degenerate atoms under controlled external conditions |

| Title | Quantized Heat Flow as a Probe of Thermal Equilibration and Edge Structures of Quantum Hall Phases in Graphene |
| Author(s) | Srivastav, Saurabh Kumar |
| Publication | Cham, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Switzerland, 2024. |
| Description | LXX, 283 p. 123 illus., 116 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book describes the quantized thermal conductance measurements of integer and several fractional quantum Hall (QH) states realized in graphene devices. Although the electrical conductance quantization of the QH effect in graphene was demonstrated in 2005, a heat flow study of QH states needed to be included. This becomes particularly essential for the hole-conjugate fractional QH phases, where counterpropagating edge modes lead to complex transport behavior. The experimental results reported in this thesis are the first set of experiments done for the quantized heat flow in graphene devices since the first mechanical isolation of graphene flakes. The book devotes two detailed introductory chapters to the electronic properties of the graphene and its bilayer and trilayer parts at zero magnetic fields, and to the essential physics of the integer and fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states, the topological order of FQH phases and the experiments that can detect them. The book has a dedicated chapter for the details of the device fabrication and thermal conductance measurement technique. The rest of the chapters are dedicated to the systematic and detailed documentation of the new experimental findings of quantized heat flow in quantum Hall phases in graphene |

| Title | 1924???1927: The Dawning of Quantum Mechanics |
| Author(s) | von Gr??nberg, Hans-Hennig;Griffiths, Alex |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2024. |
| Description | IX, 259 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | In June of 1925, almost a hundred years ago, Werner Heisenberg spent ten days on the island of Heligoland - thanks to his hayfever. This respite afforded him the time to write an article that would mark the beginning of the history of modern quantum theory. Two years later, in October of 1927, the fifth Solvay Conference, arguably the most famous gathering in the history of physics, took place in Brussels, bringing the riveting story of the origins of quantum mechanics to a close. During this crucial and relatively short period between 1925 and 1927, eight physicists from five countries developed a theory that would radically change the physical understanding of our world and would become the basis for almost all advanced technologies: transistors, lasers, light-emitting diodes, medical imaging, the electron microscope and much more. The reader will travel through time from September 1924 to October 1927 and learn by way of monthly entries how quantum mechanics came into being, what the people involved experienced and thought in the context of the time they lived in, and how a unified whole slowly emerged from the interactions of these individuals. The book is aimed at laypeople who are fascinated by quantum mechanics and its history. They will learn that this theory, like Anita Berber, jazz or the invention of television, is a characteristic child of the 1920s. The Authors Hans Hennig von Gr??nberg completed his habilitation in the field of theoretical physics, was Professor of Physical Chemistry at the University of Graz, then president of a University of Applied Sciences and is now Professor of Knowledge and Technology Transfer at the University of Potsdam. Alexander Griffiths is a doctoral student in Literature at Freie Universit??t Berlin |

| Title | Quantum Mechanics : From Atoms to Nuclei |
| Author(s) | Lombardo, Umberto;Giuliani, Gianluca;Niu, Yifei |
| Publication | Singapore, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Singapore, 2024. |
| Description | XXI, 287 p. 55 illus., 23 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book is intended to provide a self-contained introduction to the principles of Quantum Mechanics, based on the analysis of measurement processes of microscopic systems and the introduction of the physical observables as generators of symmetry transformations. After standard training arguments the applications are mainly focused on atomic and nuclear phenomena, as they occur on a quite different space-time scale. Thus, the text flows from the simplest systems, i.e. proton-electron in the hydrogen atom and proton-neutron in the Deuteron nucleus, to the complex many- body systems, i.e. stable states of atoms and nuclei of the periodic table, and finally to infinite many-body systems, including atomic and nuclear fluids. A digression is made on the application to astrophysical compact systems. The textbook is suitable for upper undergraduate students and graduate students in physics and related majors.

| Title | Fields and Their Quanta : Making Sense of Quantum Foundations |
| Author(s) | Hobson, Art |
| Publication | Cham, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Switzerland, 2024. |
| Description | XVII, 205 p. 37 illus., 22 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Quantum physics is the most comprehensive scientific theory of all time, yet its foundations have been mired in confusion since the dawn of the twentieth century. We are still unable to find consensus about wave-particle duality, the double-slit experiment, quantum randomness, entanglement, superpositions, and the measurement problem. That is, we disagree about what quantum physics means. Physicists need to get their act together! This book presents a resolution of these problems, based on the quantum field theory insight that reality comprises a set of universal quantized fields that fill the universe. An immediate consequence is that there are no particles; objects (properly called "quanta") such as photons and electrons are highly unified spatially extended bundles of field energy. As Steven Weinberg puts it, "particles are derivative phenomena." This view immediately resolves, for example, the puzzle of the double-slit experiment. As this book shows, we can dispense with the diverse interpretations such as consciousness-based views, the many worlds view, and the Copenhagen view that there is no quantum world. Quantum physics can thus return to being a normal scientific endeavor with no special interpretation outside of standard (since Copernicus) scientific realism; this is the view that nature exists on its own with no need for observers |

| Title | Quantum Networks : Introduction and Applications |
| Author(s) | Luo, Ming-Xing |
| Publication | Singapore, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Singapore, 2024. |
| Description | XV, 379 p. 43 illus., 34 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book provides a comprehensive overview of the rapidly advancing research in quantum networks, both in theory and application. While the classical internet has become essential in our daily lives, its communication techniques have limitations, such as vulnerability to interception and eavesdropping. Quantum networks, by transmitting quantum qubits, address these security concerns using the principles of quantum mechanics, such as superposition, no-cloning, and Heisenberg uncertainty. Kimble first proposed the concept of a quantum internet in 2008, envisioning a network that harnesses quantum devices and laws to transmit information. Wehner and colleagues reviewed the steps necessary to achieve a quantum internet in 2018, outlining development stages leading to increasingly powerful applications. While a fully functional quantum internet is still in progress, significant advances have been made through experiments, such as satellite-based quantum key distribution networks and quantum metropolitan area networks. This book aims to provide a unified theoretical framework for students and researchers interested in the quantum internet, offering insights into topics like network communication theory, secure communication, distributed computation, nonlocality, and quantum configuration. By presenting cutting-edge research and potential applications in the field of quantum information processing, including the quantum internet, this book stands out as a valuable resource for beginners, undergraduate students, graduate students, and researchers in physics, computer science, and information science. It bridges the gap between theoretical perspectives and practical applications, offering a comprehensive guide to the exciting possibilities of quantum networks |
