  • Structure Of Liquid Crystal Phases

    EPB Publishers Pte Ltd Structure Of Liquid Crystal Phases

    Out of stock

    Book SynopsisCurrent understanding of different phases as well as the phase transitions between them has only been achieved following recent theoretical advances on the effects of dimensionality in statistical physics. P S Pershan explains the connection between these two separate areas and gives some examples of problems where the understanding is still not complete. The most important example is the second order phase transition between the nematic and smectic-A phase. Others include the relation between the several hexatic phases that have been observed and the first order restacking transitions between phases that were all previously identified as smectic-B, but which should more properly be identified as crystalline-B. Some relatively recent experimental developments on the discotic phase, liquid crystal surfaces and lyotropic phases are also included. The book includes 41 major reprints of some of the recent seminal work on the structure of liquid crystals. They are introduced by a brief review of the symmetries and other properties of liquid crystalline phases. In addition, there is a discussion of the differences between true liquid crystalline phases and others that were described as liquid crystalline in the early literature, but which have since been shown to be true three-dimensional crystals. The progression from the isotropic fluid, through the nematic, smectic, and various crystalline phases can be understood in terms of a systematic decrease in symmetry, together with an accompanying variation in structure is explained. A guide to the selected reprints and a sort of “Rosetta Stone” for these various phases is provided. The goal of this book is to explain the systematics of this progression to students and others that are new to this field, as well as to provide a useful handbook for people already working in the field.

    Book SynopsisThis book provides an introduction to contemporary research in the physics of dense matter, which refers to matter in the density range 500 - 1017 g/cm3. The presentation is intended for the application of dense matter physics to astrophysical problems, such as those manifested in the supernova process and in the structure of the neutron star.Trade Review"In no other place, to my knowledge, can a student find collected so conveniently all the relevant ingredients of many-body physics, atomic physics and nuclear physics. This book is an excellent reference." John W Negele Physics Today (USA), 1987

    World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd Collapse Of Tori And Genesis Of Chaos In

    Out of stock

    Book SynopsisThis book provides a good coverage of the recent developments and future directions in the study of dissipative systems. The primary thrust here is in exposing the reader to the frontiers of chaos, pointing out clues for further work in nonlinear science. With the aid of various types of mappings, the collapse of tori is investigated. The book contains much valuable introductory material and copious reference lists. Some notes on the historical development of the subject are interspersed in this volume.Trade Review"It contains a wealth of numerical observations which reveal of lot of different phenomena. It is not written for the uninitiated but I recommend it to anyone who thinks that the world is simple. Your illusions will be shattered." R S Mackay Journal of Modern Optics (USA), 1987
