| Title | The Generalized Multipole Technique for Light Scattering : Recent Developments |
| Author(s) | Wriedt, Thomas;Eremin, Yuri |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2018. |
| Description | XVI, 249 p. 103 illus., 41 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book presents the Generalized Multipole Technique as a fast and powerful theoretical and computation tool to simulate light scattering by nonspherical particles. It also demonstrates the considerable potential of the method. In recent years, the concept has been applied in new fields, such as simulation of electron energy loss spectroscopy and has been used to extend other methods, like the null-field method, making it more widely applicable. The authors discuss particular implementations of the GMT methods, such as the Discrete Sources Method (DSM), Multiple Multipole Program (MMP), the Method of Auxiliary Sources (MAS), the Filamentary Current Method (FCM), the Method of Fictitious Sources (MFS) and the Null-Field Method with Discrete Sources (NFM-DS). The Generalized Multipole Technique is a surface-based method to find the solution of a boundary-value problem for a given differential equation by expanding the fields in terms of fundamental or other singular solutions of this equation. The amplitudes of these fundamental solutions are determined from the boundary condition at the particle surface. Electromagnetic and light scattering by particles or systems of particles has been the subject of intense research in various scientific and engineering fields, including astronomy, optics, meteorology, remote sensing, optical particle sizing and electromagnetics, which has led to the development of a large number of modelling methods based on the Generalized Multipole Technique for quantitative evaluation of electromagnetic scattering by particles of various shapes and compositions. The book describes these methods in detail |

| Title | From Transuranic to Superheavy Elements : A Story of Dispute and Creation |
| Author(s) | Kragh, Helge |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2018. |
| Description | VIII, 106 p. 2 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The story of superheavy elements - those at the very end of the periodic table - is not well known outside the community of heavy-ion physicists and nuclear chemists. But it is a most interesting story which deserves to be known also to historians, philosophers, and sociologists of science and indeed to the general public. This is what the present work aims at. It tells the story or rather parts of the story, of how physicists and chemists created elements heavier than uranium or searched for them in nature. And it does so with an emphasis on the frequent discovery and naming disputes concerning the synthesis of very heavy elements. Moreover, it calls attention to the criteria which scientists have adopted for what it means to have discovered a new element. In this branch of modern science it may be more appropriate to speak of creation instead of discovery. The work will be of interest to scientists as well as to scholars studying modern science from a meta-perspective |

| Title | Measurement of the D0 Meson Production in Pb???Pb and p???Pb Collisions : A Study Performed with the ALICE Experiment at the LHC |
| Author(s) | Festanti, Andrea |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2016. |
| Description | XVII, 174 p. 113 illus., 39 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This thesis presents the first measurement of charmed D0 meson production relative to the reaction plane in Pb???Pb collisions at the center-of-mass energy per nucleon-nucleon collision of ???sNN = 2.76 TeV. It also showcases the measurement of the D0 production in p???Pb collisions at ???sNN = 5.02 TeV with the ALICE detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The measurement of the D0 azimuthal anisotropy with respect to the reaction plane indicates that low- momentum charm quarks participate in the collective expansion of the high-density, strongly interacting medium formed in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions, despite their large mass. This behavior can be explained by charm hadronization via recombination with light quarks from the medium and collisional energy loss. The measurement of the D0 production in p???Pb collisions is crucial to separate the effect induced by cold nuclear matter from the final- state effects induced by the hot medium formed in Pb???Pb collisions. The D0 production in p???Pb collisions is consistent with the binary collision scaling of the production in pp collisions, demonstrating that the modification of the momentum distribution observed in Pb???Pb collisions with respect to pp is predominantly induced by final-state effects such as the charm energy loss |

| Title | Bayesian Inference : Data Evaluation and Decisions |
| Author(s) | Harney, Hanns Ludwig |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2016. |
| Description | XIII, 243 p. 39 illus., 3 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This new edition offers a comprehensive introduction to the analysis of data using Bayes rule. It generalizes Gaussian error intervals to situations in which the data follow distributions other than Gaussian. This is particularly useful when the observed parameter is barely above the background or the histogram of multiparametric data contains many empty bins, so that the determination of the validity of a theory cannot be based on the chi-squared-criterion. In addition to the solutions of practical problems, this approach provides an epistemic insight: the logic of quantum mechanics is obtained as the logic of unbiased inference from counting data. New sections feature factorizing parameters, commuting parameters, observables in quantum mechanics, the art of fitting with coherent and with incoherent alternatives and fitting with multinomial distribution. Additional problems and examples help deepen the knowledge. Requiring no knowledge of quantum mechanics, the book is written on introductory level, with many examples and exercises, for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in the physical sciences, planning to, or working in, fields such as medical physics, nuclear physics, quantum mechanics, and chaos |

| Title | Energetic Particles in the Heliosphere |
| Author(s) | Simnett, George M |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2017. |
| Description | IX, 241 p. 190 illus., 83 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This monograph traces the development of our understanding of how and where energetic particles are accelerated in the heliosphere and how they may reach the Earth. Detailed data sets are presented which address these topics. The bulk of the observations are from spacecraft in or near the ecliptic plane. It is timely to present this subject now that Voyager-1 has entered the true interstellar medium. Since it seems unlikely that there will be a follow-on to the Voyager programme any time soon, the data we already have regarding the outer heliosphere are not going to be enhanced for at least 40 years |

| Title | Introduction to Particle and Astroparticle Physics : Multimessenger Astronomy and its Particle Physics Foundations |
| Author(s) | De Angelis, Alessandro;Pimenta, M??rio |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2018. |
| Description | XXX, 733 p. 380 illus., 266 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book introduces particle physics, astrophysics and cosmology. Starting from an experimental perspective, it provides a unified view of these fields that reflects the very rapid advances being made. This new edition has a number of improvements and has been updated to include material on the Higgs particle and to describe the recently discovered gravitational waves. Astroparticle and particle physics share a common problem: we still don???t have a description of the main ingredients of the Universe from the point of view of its energy budget. Addressing these fascinating issues, and offering a balanced introduction to particle and astroparticle physics that requires only a basic understanding of quantum and classical physics, this book is a valuable resource, particularly for advanced undergraduate students and for those embarking on graduate courses. It includes exercises that offer readers practical insights. It can be used equally well as a self-study book, a reference and a textbook. |

| Title | Beyond Classical Physics |
| Author(s) | Cunningham, Mark A |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2018. |
| Description | XXI, 358 p. 157 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This undergraduate textbook discusses the nature of the microscopic universe from a modern perspective, based on Einstein's notions of relativity and Noether's proof of the emergence of conservation laws from symmetries of the equations of motion. These ideas drove the development of the Standard Model of particle physics and string theory. The second half of the book explores various aspects of many-body physics, ranging from chemical systems to plasmas to black holes. Like the previous textbook authored by by Mark Cunningham, Neoclassical Physics, this text uses a guided discovery approach of instruction, highlighting the experimental results that drove development of our modern picture of subatomic physics. Many problems utilize Mathematica software to enable students to explore the meaning of different equations in a graphical manner. Students will gain an appreciation of the current state of physical theory, in preparation for more detailed, advanced study as upperclassmen |

| Title | Electroweak Physics at the LHC |
| Author(s) | Mozer, Matthias U |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2016. |
| Description | IX, 115 p. 43 illus., 35 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The book discusses the recent experimental results obtained at the LHC that involve electroweak bosons. The results are placed into an appropriate theoretical and historical context. The work pays special attention to the rising subject of hadronically decaying bosons with high boosts, documenting the state-of-the-art identification techniques and highlighting example results their application. The document is not limited to electroweak physics in the strict sense, but also discusses the use of electroweak vector-bosons as tool in the study of other subjects in particle physics, such as determinations of the proton structure or the search for new exotic particles. The book is particularly well suited for graduate students, starting their thesis work on topics that involve electroweak bosons, as the book provides a comprehensive description of phenomena observable at current accelerators as well as a summary of the most relevant experimental techniques |

| Title | Heavy Quarkonium Production Phenomenology and Automation of One-Loop Scattering Amplitude Computations |
| Author(s) | Shao, Hua-Sheng |
| Publication | Singapore, Springer Singapore, 2016. |
| Description | XVII, 167 p. 44 illus., 33 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book focuses on the study of heavy quarkonium production at high-energy colliders as a useful tool to explain both the perturbative and non-perturbative aspects of quantum choromodynamics. It provides the first comprehensive comparison between the theory and recent experiments and clarifies some longstanding puzzles in the heavy quarkonium production mechanism. In addition, it describes in detail a new framework for implementing precise computations of the physical observables in quantum field theories based on recently developed techniques. It can be used to simulate the complicated collider environment of the Large Hadron Collider at the Conseil Europ??en pour la Recherche Nucl??aire (CERN). Its accomplishment implies that the Monte Carlo simulations for high-energy physics experiments have reached the limits of precision. It offers readers a wealth of valuable information on the relevant techniques |

| Title | Measurement of Quarkonium Polarization to Probe QCD at the LHC |
| Author(s) | Kn??nz, Valentin |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2017. |
| Description | XVII, 166 p. 74 illus., 37 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This thesis discusses in detail the measurement of the polarizations of all S-wave vector quarkonium states in LHC proton-proton collisions with the CMS detector. Heavy quarkonium states constitute an ideal laboratory to study non-perturbative effects of quantum chromodynamics and to understand how quarks bind into hadrons. The experimental results are interpreted through an original phenomenological approach, which leads to a coherent picture of quarkonium production cross sections and polarizations within a simple model, dominated by one single color-octet production mechanism. These findings provide new insights into the dynamics of heavy quarkonium production at the LHC, an important step towards a satisfactory understanding of hadron formation within the standard model of particle physics |
