The initial impetus for the search for an organic superconductor was the proposal of the existence of a polymer superconductor with a high critical temperature (Tc).
While the first two volumes on Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) and its related scanning probe (SXM) methods have mainly concentrated on intro- ducing the experimental techniques, as well as their various applications in different research fields, this third volume is exclusively devoted to the theory of STM and related SXM methods.
Graduate students who want to become familiar with advanced computational strategies in classical and quantum dynamics will find here both the fundamentals of a standard course and a detailed treatment of the time-dependent oscillator, Chern-Simons mechanics, the Maslov anomaly and the Berry phase, together with many worked examples throughout the text.
In crystals as diverse as sodium chloride, silicon dioxide,sold xenon, pyrene, arsenic triselenide, and silverchloride, the fundamental electronicexcitation (exciton) islocalized within its own lattice distortion field veryshortly after its creation.
Scanning Tunneling Microscopy II, like its predecessor,presents detailed and comprehensive accounts of the basicprinciples and broad range of applications of STM andrelated scanning probe techniques.
Scanning Tunneling Microscopy I provides a unique introduction to a novel and fascinating technique that produces beautiful images of nature on an atomic scale.
Four years aga Walter Thirring suggested to me that it would be desirable to have a book describing recent results of the "e;algebraic approach"e; to quantum field theory and statistical mechanics.
This book aims at providing graduate students and researchers with funda- mental knowledge indispensable for entering the new field of "e;microclus- 3 ters"e;.
Atomic physics and its underlying quantum theory are the point of departure for many modern areas of physics, astrophysics, chemistry, biology, and even electrical engineering.
Lasers, having proven useful in such diverse areas as high- resolution spectroscopy and the guiding of ferryboats, are cur- rently enjoying great popularity among materials scientists and engineers.
This volume contains the notes of lectures given at the school on "e;Nonlinear Dy- namics in Solids"e; held at the Physikzentrum Bad Honnef, 2-6 October 1989 under the patronage of the Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft.
This book provides a basis by which instruments and transducers can be selected, assembled and integrated with a computer to measure and control physical processes in an accurate and predictable manner.
With the surprising discovery of superconductivity at temperatures above 100 K, this field was not only brought into the public eye, but also stimulated research in universities, scientific institutions and industry, thus continuing the fascinating development which began with the discovery of the Josephson effect in the sixties.
This book is designed to give a short introduction to the field of materials pro- cesses for students in the different engineering and physical sciences.
The present volume contains the text of the invited lectures presented at the Symposium on Many- Body Methods in Quantum Chemistry, held on the campus of Tel Aviv University in August 1988.
Computer simulation studies in condensed matter physics form a rapidly developing field making sigificant contributions to important physical problems.

Although the subject of wave propagation in solids has a long history, the classical theory of elastic waves having been developed in the nine- teenth century by STOKES, POISSON, RAYLEIGH and KELVIN, the last two decades have seen a remarkable revival of interest in this subject among both theoreticians and experimenters.
Next to the harmonic oscillator and the Coulomb potential the class of two-body models with point interactions is the only one where complete solutions are available.
Following the biannual meetings in MUnster (1977) and Stanford (1979) the Third International Conference on Secondary Ion Mass Spectroscopy was held in Budapest from August 31 to September 5, 1981.
Much progress has been made in scattering theory since the publication of the first edition of this book fifteen years ago, and it is time to update it.
Das von einem der versiertesten Experten der physikalischen Metallkunde geschriebene Standardwerk erläutert mit den Mitteln der Festkörperphysik, der Chemischen Thermodynamik und Kinetik die Eigenschaften, die Umwandlungsvorgänge und das Gefüge von metallischen Werkstoffen.
