Author(s) | Vayenas, Constantinos G;Tsousis, Dionysios G;Martino, Eftychia H |
Publication | Cham, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Switzerland, 2024. |
Description | XXIII, 196 p. 93 illus., 65 illus. in color : online resource |
Abstract Note | This monograph explores the profound implications of neutrino discovery and their minuscule masses on our understanding of the Universe. It delves into the fundamental composition of matter, revealing that neutrinos, electrons, and positrons are the only indivisible particles. The book addresses the crucial question of hadronization: the process by which all other particles (hadrons, bosons, etc.) are formed from electrons, positrons, and neutrinos. It examines what catalyzes this significant transformation, which involves a substantial increase in mass. By integrating the Rotating Lepton Model (RLM) of hadrons and bosons with recent experimental data from CERN, the book demonstrates the essential role of electrons and positrons in facilitating the synthesis of hadrons and bosons from ambient neutrinos. It is a valuable resource for graduates, researchers, and academics working in the areas of physics, chemistry, and chemical engineering |

Title | Quanta in Distress : How New Age Gurus Kidnapped Quantum Physics |
Author(s) | Hassani, Sadri |
Publication | Cham, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Switzerland, 2024. |
Description | XVII, 213 p. 20 illus., 9 illus. in color : online resource |
Abstract Note | This book deconstructs and debunks the lucrative and widespread marriage of quantum physics with pop-spirituality while tracing this pernicious strain of pseudoscience to its source: the founders of quantum mechanics themselves. The association of mystical ideas with modern physics in the self-improvement industry is not new. The ???spookiness??? of quantum properties like uncertainty and entanglement has proven fertile ground for new-age mystics and alternative medicine advocates who saw a way to put a scientific veneer on their claims. In the early days, the founders of quantum physics accused it of implying an observer-created reality. Later, Taoists and Wu Li dancers were quantized. Then ancient Indian medicine, Ayurveda, morphed into ???quantum healing.??? Little wonder The Oprah Winfrey Show told its viewers: think about losing weight, making more money, and falling in love, and you???ll become thin, wealthy, and happily married ??? all based on quantum physics. Criticism of the pseudoscientific misappropriation of quantum physics has been widespread but inadequate; thus far, the scientific community has failed to account for its own role in the fusion of pop-spirituality and quantum physics. As well as thoroughly exploring and debunking quantum mysticism, this book traces the development of quantum mysticism and pulls no punches in exposing the unwitting role of quantum theory???s founders in propagating quantum mysticism |

Title | The Conceptions of Reality in the Interpretations of Quantum Mechanics : A Journey from Aristotle???s Principles to Einstein???s Dreams of a Unified Theory |
Author(s) | Krizek, Gerd Christian |
Publication | Cham, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer International Publishing, 2024. |
Description | IX, 163 p. 47 illus., 10 illus. in color : online resource |
Abstract Note | This book explores the different conceptions of reality in the various interpretations of Quantum Mechanics, demonstrating the intimate connection to philosophy of physics. With interest in the foundations of Quantum Mechanics having revived in recent decades, a number of interpretations have been formulated or rediscovered and these remain in strong competition with one another for acceptance by the scientific community. At the same time they imply quite different notions of reality. The author provides an overview of these conceptions of reality and their embedding in physical theories, interpretations of Quantum Mechanics and related philosophical frameworks. Starting with Aristotle???s principles, the deep fruitful connection between philosophy and physics guides this journey through the foundations of Quantum Mechanics |

Title | Optical Hall Effect in the Sharp Focus of Laser Light |
Author(s) | Kotlyar, Victor V;Kovalev, Alexey A;Nalimov, Anton G |
Publication | Cham, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Switzerland, 2024. |
Description | XV, 280 p. 119 illus., 112 illus. in color : online resource |
Abstract Note | This book explores the optical Hall effect in the sharp focus of laser light. It builds upon the established theory of Richards-Wolf (1959), providing numerous real-world examples that illustrate both spin and orbital Hall effects near the focal point. Within the focal zone, distinct regions of left and right circular polarization emerge, showcasing the orbital Hall effect. This effect becomes apparent when localized areas within the focal plane experience transverse energy flow, rotating either clockwise or counterclockwise. The spin Hall effect, a fundamental occurrence, is demonstrated when a linearly polarized Gaussian beam is concentrated. Furthermore, the book reveals spin and orbital Hall effects in light fields with nonuniform linear polarization, where the polarization direction varies within the beam cross section. While the optical or photonic Hall effect has been recognized since 2004, a comprehensive monograph detailing its focal dynamics has been lacking until now. Drawing from the cohesive theoretical framework of the Richards-Wolf theory, this book offers specific examples and results from computer modeling. It equips readers with analytical relations for calculating energy and spin fluxes near a sharp focus across various initial light vector fields. Designed for a diverse audience, including scientists, engineers, and students in optics and photonics, this book serves as a valuable resource. It caters to undergraduate and graduate students in applied mathematics, physics, informatics, and optics, and can also benefit researchers and professionals in the field. Moreover, the book holds potential as a foundational text for advanced graduate courses |

Title | Quantum Transport in Interacting Nanojunctions : A Density Matrix Approach |
Author(s) | Donarini, Andrea;Grifoni, Milena |
Publication | Cham, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer International Publishing, 2024. |
Description | XX, 574 p. 138 illus., 133 illus. in color : online resource |
Abstract Note | This book serves as an introduction to the growing field of quantum many-body transport in interacting nanojunctions. It delves into a theoretical approach based on a general density-matrix formulation for open quantum systems. In the book, relevant transport observables, like the current or its higher order cumulants, are obtained by evaluating quantum statistical averages. This approach requires the knowledge of the reduced density matrix of the interacting nanosystems. The formulation for addressing transport problems, based on the evolution of the reduced density operator in Liouville space, is highly versatile. It enables the treatment of charge and spin transport across various realistic nanostructures. Topics encompass standard Coulomb blockade, cotunneling phenomena in quantum dots, vibrational and Franck-Condon effects in molecular junctions, as well as many-body interference observed in double quantum dots or carbon nanotubes. Derived from lectures tailored for graduate and advanced students at the University of Regensburg in Germany, this book is enriched with exercises and step-by-step derivations |

Title | Dynamical Properties of Baryon Resonances in the Holographic QCD |
Author(s) | Fujii, Daisuke |
Publication | Singapore, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Singapore, 2024. |
Description | XV, 213 p. 37 illus., 28 illus. in color : online resource |
Abstract Note | This book focuses on the study of the dynamical properties of hadron resonances, especially their transition processes by electromagnetic and strong interactions, by using the holographic quantum chromodynamics (QCD) model. Understanding the nature of hadrons leads to revealing non-perturbative phenomena that are prominent in the low-energy region of QCD. However, there remain many open questions regarding the nature of resonant states. Holographic QCD is one of the most powerful methods to elucidate non-perturbative phenomena in QCD. We will attempt to investigate the dynamical properties of hadron resonances using the Sakai-Sugimoto model, which has achieved much success in the study of hadron physics. In particular, we studied the transition process of hadrons through the calculation of the form factors of them employing the approach of holographic QCD. The book contains a systematic review of the treatment of hadron physics by the Sakai-Sugimoto model. It further covers how to calculate the form factors of baryons through the calculation of the n-point function from holographic QCD. It also includes remarks on the modern understanding of hadron physics. The method of collective coordinate quantization of solitons???Skyrmion and Instanton???is also explained in a concise manner. These are useful not only for students and young researchers interested in this field |
