Overview: Nominated as an outstanding Ph.D. thesis by the Kyoto University, Kyoto, Japan.Provides a comprehensive review of observations of quantum oscillations in Kondo insulators.Describes in detail experimen.Electronic state of every solid is basically classified into two categories according to its electrical responses: insulator or metal. A textbook of modern solid state physics explains that shape of a Fermi surface plays a key role in most physical properties in metals. One of the well-established experimental methods to detect a Fermi surface is measurement of quantum oscillations that

Overview: Covers the state of the art of quantum transport and quantum kinetics in semiconductors, plus the latest applications.Supplies theoretical basis for ultrashort laser pulse spectroscopy in semiconducto.Nanoscale miniaturization and femtosecond laser-pulse spectroscopy require a quantum mechanical description of the carrier kinetics that goes beyond the conventional Boltzmann theory. On these extremely short length and time scales, the electrons behave as do partially coherent waves. This monograph deals with quantum kinetics for transport in low-dimensional microstructures and for ult

Overview: Explains the philosophy behind quantum mechanics.Considers whether phenomena commonly considered "paranormal" can be accommodated by quantum mechanics.Avoids equations almost completely!.Includes supp.This book explains, in simple but accurate terms, how orthodox quantum mechanics works. The author, a distinguished theoretical physicist, shows how this theory, realistically interpreted, assigns an important role to our conscious free choices. Stapp claims that mainstream biology and neuroscience, despite nearly a century of quantum physics, still stick essentially to failed classical

Overview: Quantitative anaesthesia - exact registration of the degree of anaesthesia - has long been the anaesthetist‘s dream. Such pre­ cision could decrease the risk for the patient. Can -this dream now be realized in the foreseeable future? And can the quantifi­ cation be technically verified? This workshop was organized for these questions to be discussed by a group of experts. Schleswig-Holstein was a logical location for such a gathering. Medical and associated technical advances have socioeconomic consequences: in Schleswig-Holstein there are nowadays more jobs in medical technology tha

Overview: Establishes a relationship between coefficient of friction (COF), floor slipperiness and floor roughness.Includes supplementary material: .This book investigates the factors that lead to slip and fall incidents and establishes a relationship between the coefficient of friction (COF), floor slipperiness and floor roughness. It also examines human perception of slipperiness through measured coefficient of friction (COF). On the basis of questionnaire surveys among manufacturing workers, it identifies potential risk factors and assesses human perceptions of slipperiness. It also uses a
