Principles of Nanophotonics (Optics and Optoelectronics)

Taylor & Francis, 2008

The Theory and Applications of Nanophotonics Devices, Fabrication, and Systems

Coauthored by the developer of nanophotonics, Principles of Nanophotonics outlines physically intuitive concepts of the subject using a novel theoretical framework that differs from conventional wave optics. It probes far-reaching physical...

Particle and Astroparticle Physics (Series in High Energy Physics, Cosmology and Gravitation)

Taylor & Francis, 2007

From superstring theory to models with extra dimensions to dark matter and dark energy, a range of theoretically stimulating ideas have evolved for physics beyond the standard model. These developments have spawned a new area of physics that centers on the interplay between particle physics and cosmology—astroparticle physics. Providing the...

The Mathematical Theory of Cosmic Strings (Series in High Energy Physics, Cosmology and Gravitation)

Taylor & Francis, 2002

Anderson provides a comprehensive summary and review of the mathematical theory of cosmic strings. The subject is not in a state of rapid change so the book is up to date and it is likely to remain so for some time. Although the book is technical and requires a strong mathematical background and an interest in differential geometry, it is well...

Scientifically Speaking: A Dictionary of Quotations, Second Edition

Taylor & Francis, 2000

In 1995 I needed a book of statistical quotations. When I went to the library I found that there wasn’t such a book and so decided to compile my own. That book of statistical quotations has now grown into a series of six science quotation books. Scientifically Speaking: A Dictionary of Quotations, the sixth book of the series, is the largest...

Quantum Mechanics: An Introduction for Device Physicists and Electrical Engineers, Second Edition

Taylor & Francis, 2001

Many of my friends have used the first edition of this book, and have suggested a number of changes and additions, not to mention the many errata necessary. In the second edition, I have tried to incorporate as many additions and changes as possible without making the text over-long. As before, there remains far more material than can be covered in...

The Fourth State of Matter

Taylor & Francis, 2001

A valuable book has become even better. It deserves a large market.
- Professor Falthammar

Many analogies to everyday life liven things up The book is strong on history, not only of plasma, but also of atomic physics and electromagnetism.
- E. Infeld, Journal of Plasma Physics

Plasma physics may hold the...

The Physics Companion

Taylor & Francis, 2003

The Physics Companion is a revision aid and study guide for undergraduates in physics. It covers the core topics, deriving key concepts and equations in clear one-page figure-rich descriptions. Each subsection contains a summary of the main equations, together with a set of worked examples.

The topics covered include:
...

The Galactic Black Hole: Studies in High Energy Physics, Cosmology and Gravitation

Taylor & Francis, 2002

The supermassive black hole in the center of our Milky Way is the nearest such object and relatively easy to observe and study. Not surprisingly therefore, it is the best studied supermassive black hole. Many astrophysical and even general relativistic effects can be investigated in great detail. The Galactic Black Hole: Lectures on General...

Black Holes, Wormholes & Time Machines

Taylor & Francis, 1999

Do you know: · What might happen if you fall into a black hole? · That the Universe does not have an edge? · That the reason it gets dark at night is proof of the Big Bang? · That cosmic particles time-travel through the atmosphere defying death? · That our past, present and future might all coexist...

Computational River Dynamics

Taylor & Francis, 2007

This comprehensive text on the fundamentals of modeling flow and sediment transport in rivers treats both the physical principles and numerical methods for various degrees of complexity. It covers 1-D, 2-D (both depth- and width-averaged), and 3-D models, as well as the integration and coupling of these models. The volume includes a broad selection...

Computer Modelling of Concrete Mixtures

Taylor & Francis, 1999

While the traditional procedure of making trial mixes is now unnecessary, expensive and time consuming, the data generated can be incorporated into the development of computer-based systems and combined with knowledge from research and practice. The author has developed systems by which a small amount of materials data can be used to predict the...
