Discovered some 20 years ago with a Nobel Prize awarded in 1985 for work in this intriguing area of condensed matter physics, many unanswered questions remain about quantum Hall effects. Jacak and his
Originally published in 1958 by McGraw-Hill Book Company, this volume introduces the basic quantities and concepts in electromagnetic engineering. Imparting the fundamentals of vector analysis and its
Designed as an upper-level undergraduate/beginning graduate text and as a reference for research scientists, Modern Problems in Classical Electrodynamics addresses a wide range of topics in modern phy
This book presents a fresh, original exposition of the foundations of classical electrodynamics in the tradition of the so-called metric-free approach. The fundamental structure of classical electrody
The "discovery" of superconductivity happened in 1911, but it wasn't until the mid-1980s that serious work began into applications. Matricon and Waysand (both formerly affiliated with the U. Denis Did

This is one of the most comprehensive and advanced books on the quantum Hall effect, which remains one of the most important subjects to have emerged in condensed matter physics over the past 20 years
The fractional quantum Hall effect has opened up a new paradigm in the study of strongly correlated electrons and it has been shown that new concepts, such as fractional statistics, anyon, chiral Lutt
Introduces electricity, discussing its static and current forms; the uses of batteries, generators, and power stations; and the importance of safety precautions.
With projects ranging from building a basic battery-connected circuit to a do-it -yourself burglar alarm, children will have fun discovering the properties and principles of electricity.
Practically all of modern physics deals with fields—functions of space (or spacetime) that give the value of a certain quantity, such as the temperature, in terms of its location within a prescribed v
