Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

This book presents the subject of physical kinetics from an original and unique angle, by deriving the Boltzmann equation from atomic motion, making extensive use of Landau’s concept of elementary excitations. It includes external forces, besides statistical motion, in its treatment of the subject wherever relevant. It also details the kinetic theory of classical gas and its transport, devoting special attention to the classical plasma. In addition, the book emphasises the role played by the anharmonic interactions in the lifetime of phonons, and presents the basic features of superconductivity and superfluidity.

Many-body Theory

Normal Fermi Liquid

By: Marian Apostol

The interaction of bodies blurs the concept of independent particles. This book presents a way of accommodating the interaction in ensembles of many interacting fermions, like electrons in solids, or H e 3 at low temperatures. The theory of interacting fermions at zero temperatures is described, and its application to the quasiparticle picture is thoroughly investigated, with the aim of relating Landau's theory of the normal Fermi liquid to the quantum-mechanical interaction effects. The reader should have a background knowledge of quantum mechanics, statistical physics and quantum-field theory. The book derives the phenomenological interaction function of the normal Fermi liquid from the underlying fermion interaction, and presents specific calculations of the relevant quantities. In particular, the validity of the quasiparticle concept is investigated, and quantitative limits are given. An estimation of the ground-state energy and the chemical potential is presented, which is a long-standing problem in this phenomenological theory.

Statistical Physics

By: Marian Apostol

This book explores statistical physics, with an emphasis on the distinct character of the statistical motion and difficult subjects, related, mainly, to condensed matter. It discusses the interaction problem in real gases, as well as dimensionality effects and melting. The book shows how to estimate easily the critical temperature of the Ising ferromagnets, the origin of the drag force, how to get an inverse-wind vortex in turbulence, the entropy of the earthquakes, and how the gas-liquid transition occurs. It also describes the hadronization of the quark-gluon plasma, the phase diagram of the quantum chromodynamics, and the thermodynamics of black holes.

Equations of Mathematical Physics

By: Marian Apostol

The differential equations of mathematical physics have a twofold character: their physical content and their mathematical solutions. This book discusses the basic tools of theoretical physicists, applied mathematicians, and engineers, providing detailed insights into linear algebra, Fourier transforms, special functions, Laplace and Poisson, diffusion and vector equations. These basic tools are a set of methods and techniques, known as the equations of mathematical physics. At first sight, they look like a collection of disparate things. Many students in theoretical physics perceive them as strange, autonomous, inflexible, and ultimately unknown objects, whose sole use resides in their being applied to solving usually standard physical problems. While mathematicians are oriented towards empty generalizations and the so-called mathematical rigour, theoretical physicists often limit themselves to giving a set of recipes and examples. Both succeed in producing large, heavy tomes, which are, to a large extent, useless. The only exception seems to be Sommerfeld’s Partielle Differentialgleichungen der Physik, which, however, is rather limited to a restricted list of subjects. The physical nature and origin of the equations of mathematical physics is emphasized in this book, and their various elements and great flexibility are described. The book reveals the indissoluble connection between physical ideas and mathematical concepts, and how these visions can be transcribed into accurate mathematics.

Singular Equations of Waves and Vibrations

By: Marian Apostol

This book presents an exploration of the wave and vibration equation in one, two and three dimensions, with emphasis on singular solutions. The distinction between the wave treatment and the vibration treatment is particularly discussed with the causality principle being the leading principle for waves in this context. The necessity of regularization of the singular solutions is presented whilst the scattered waves are differentiated from the reflected (and refracted) waves, according to Huygens principle. The physical content of the wave equation is underlined. Relevant applications are included and some more exotic phenomena are discussed, such as pulses, tsunami and storm breakers, the ringing of bells and the collapsing of towers, and classical waves and vibrations in an elastic half-space or a sphere. This book is oriented to students, instructors, teachers, researchers in physics and applied mathematics, as well as engineers and other practitioners of mathematical physics.

Magnetic and Electric Resonance

By: Marian Apostol

This book is devoted to a quasi-classical treatment of quantum transitions, with an emphasis on nuclear magnetic resonance, nuclear quadrupole resonance and electric dipolar resonance. The method described here is based on the quasi-classical description of condensed matter, and makes use of the equation of motion of harmonic oscillators with external forces. In addition to known results in magnetic resonance, the book also presents parametric resonance for electric dipoles and dipolar interaction which may lead to spontaneous electric polarization.

CĂSĂTORIA ȘI FAMILIA ÎN EPISTOLELE SFÂNTULUI APOSTOL PAVEL

By: MARIAN VILD

„În înţelepciunea Sa, Domnul Dumnezeu a rânduit ca în chip firesc omul să înveţe dragostea în familie. Astfel, eliberarea treptată de egoism vine ca un firesc în relaţiile familiale. Tinerii sunt gata să renunţe la unele din ideile şi nevoile lor imediate pentru a fi pe placul persoanei iubite. Mai târziu, în căsătorie, renunţarea la impunerea în permanenţă a voinţei proprii face posibilă convieţuirea soţilor. Dacă există iubire, acest lucru nu este greu, ci vine ca un firesc, bucuria pe care i-o face unul dintre soţi celuilalt prin acceptarea părerii aceluia într-o chestiune sau alta, este una împlinitoare şi pentru cel care renunţă la părerea sa. O nouă etapă în desăvârşirea dragostei este apariţia copiilor. Rod al dragostei dintre soţi, şi absolut dependenţi din punct de vedere fizic de părinţi în prima etapă a vieţii lor, copiii sunt un motiv de noi renunţări la timpul şi nevoile cele mai fireşti ale părinţilor. Atunci când familia nu se limitează la naşterea unui singur copil, practica punerii propriilor nevoi pe ultimul loc în ordinea priorităţilor devine una zilnică, şi astfel, despătimitoare. În acest fel, familia este o şcoală a dragostei jertfelnice, în care cei din familie au întotdeauna prioritate în faţa propriilor dorinţe şi nevoi.” Pr. Marian Vild
