Molekülphysik und Quantenchemie führt systematisch und leicht zugänglich in die Grundlagen der beiden Gebiete ein, wie es zum Verständnis der physikalischen Eigenschaften von Molekülen und der chemischen Bindung erforderlich ist.

Methoden der Quantenmechanik mit Mathematica wendet sich an interessierte Studenten der Physik und Mathematik, die Zugang zu Mathematica haben und dieses umfassende Computer-Algebra-System konsequent auf quantenmechanische Probleme anwenden wollen.
This is the third Selecta of publications of Elliott Lieb, the first two being Stabil- ity of Matter: From Atoms to Stars, edited by Walter Thirring, and Inequalities, edited by Michael Loss and Mary Beth Ruskai.
Initially proposed as rivals of classical logic, alternative logics have become increasingly important in sciences such as quantum physics, computer science, and artificial intelligence.
This edition combines the earlier two volumes on Quantum Mechanics of Atoms and Molecules and on Quantum Mechanics of Large Systems, thus including in a single volume the material for a two-semester course on quantum physics.
Nowadays it is becoming clearer and clearer that, in the description of natural phenomena, the triadic scheme - microseopie, mesoscopic, macroscopic - is only a rough approximation and that there are many levels of description, probably an infinite hierarchy, in which the specific properties of a given level express some kind of cumulative or collective behaviour of properties or sys- tems corresponding to the lower levels.
Laser physics has always been driven by a genuinely scientific quest to extend existing limits, limits of physical knowledge and limits of physical methods.
The second edition of this "e;selecta"e; of my work on the stability of matter was sold out and this presented an opportunity to add some newer work on the quantum- mechanical many-body problem.
Elements of Quantum Optics gives a broad coverage of the basic elements necessary to understand and carry out research in laser physics and quantum optics.
Chaos: A Program Collection for the PC presents an outstanding selection of executable programs with introductory texts to chaos theory and its simulation.
Quantum Networks is focused on density matrix theory cast into a product operator representation, particularly adapted to describing networks of finite state subsystems.
Shuji Nakamura's development of commercial light emitters from Gallium Nitride and related materials has recently propelled these materials into the mainstream of interest.
The first edition of "e;The Stability of Matter: From Atoms to Stars"e; was sold out after a time unusually short for a selecta collection and we thought it ap- propriate not just to make a reprinting but to include eight new contributionso They demonstrate that this field is still lively and keeps revealing unexpected featureso Of course, we restricted ourselves to developments in which Elliott Lieb participated and thus the heroic struggle in Thomas-Fermi theory where 7 3 5 3 the accuracy has been pushed from Z 1 to Z 1 is not includedo A rich landscape opened up after Jakob Yngvason's observation that atoms in magnetic fields also are described in suitable limits by a Thomas-Fermi-type theoryo Together with Elliott Lieb and Jan Philip Solovej it was eventually worked out that one has to distinguish 5 regionso If one takes as a dimensionless measure of the magnetic field strength B the ratio Larmor radius/Bohr radius one can compare it with N "e;' Z and for each of the domains 4 3 (i) B N 1 , 4 3 (ii) B "e;' N 1 , 4 3 3 (iii) N 1 B N , 3 (iv) B "e;' N , 3 (v) B N a different version ofmagnetic Thomas-Fermi theory becomes exact in the limit N --+ ooo In two dimensions and a confining potential ("e;quantum dots"e;) the situation is somewhat simpler, one has to distinguish only (i) B N, (ii) B "e;'N,
Decoherence, a concept known only to few physicists when the first edition appeared in 1996, has since become firmly established experimentally and understood theoretically, as well as widely reported in the literature.
Laser Processing and Chemistry gives an overview of the fundamentals and applications of laser--matter interactions, in particular with regard to laser material processing.
Quantum Networks is focused on density matrix theory cast into a representation - SU(n) algebra - particularly adapted to describing networks of quasi-molecular subsystems.
