TitleDynamics and Thermodynamics of Systems with Long Range Interactions
Author(s)Dauxois, Thierry;Ruffo, Stefano;Arimondo, Ennio;Wilkens, Martin
PublicationBerlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2002.
DescriptionXI, 492 p : online resource
Abstract NoteProperties of systems with long range interactions are still poorly understood despite being of importance in most areas of physics. The present volume introduces and reviews the effort of constructing a coherent thermodynamic treatment of such systems by combining tools from statistical mechanics with concepts and methods from dynamical systems. Analogies and differences between various systems are examined by considering a large range of applications, with emphasis on Bose--Einstein condensates. Written as a set of tutorial reviews, the book will be useful for both the experienced researcher as well as the nonexpert scientist or postgraduate student

TitlePhysics of solitons
Author(s)Thierry Dauxois;Michel Peyrard
PublicationCambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2010.
Descriptionviii, 422p.
Abstract NoteSolitons are waves with exceptional stability properties which appear in many areas of physics. The basic properties of solitons are introduced here using examples from macroscopic physics (e.g. blood pressure pulses and fibre optical communications). The book then presents the main theoretical methods before discussing applications from solid state or atomic physics such as dislocations, excitations in spin chains, conducting polymers, ferroelectrics and Bose-Einstein condensates. Examples are also taken from biological physics and include energy transfer in proteins and DNA fluctuations. Throughout the book the authors emphasise a fresh approach to modelling nonlinearities in physics. Instead of a perturbative approach, nonlinearities are treated intrinsically and the analysis based on the soliton equations introduced in this book. Based on the authors' graduate course, this textbook gives an instructive view of the physics of solitons for students with a basic knowledge of general physics, and classical and quantum mechanics.
