Description
Book SynopsisThis book aims to provide the readers with a wide panorama of different aspects related to Chaos, Complexity and Transport. It consists of a collection of contributions ranging from applied mathematics to experiments, presented during the CCT'07 conference (Marseilles, June 4-8, 2007). The book encompasses different traditional fields of physics and mathematics while trying to keep a common language among the fields, and targets a nonspecialized audience.
Table of ContentsTheory: Out of Equilibrium Phase Transitions in Mean-Field Hamiltonian Dynamics (S Ruffo); Chaotic Geodesics (J-L Thiffeault); Wave Condensation (S Rica); Applications: Plasmas and Fluids: Experimental Studies of Advection-Reaction Diffusion Systems (T H Solomon); Intermittency Scenario of Transition to Chaos in Plasma (D G Dimitriu); On the Complexity of the Neutral Curve of Oscillatory Flows (M Wadih); Others: The Formation of Spiral Arms and Rings in Barred Galaxies (M Romero-Gomez); Wave Chaos and Ghost Orbits in an Underwater Sound-Channel (D V Makarov); Nodal Pattern Analysis for Conductivity of Quantum Ring in Magnetic Field (M Tomiya); and other papers.
