Add to basketBrossura. Condition: ottimo. Volume in 8° (cm 16,0 x 22,0) pagg XII + 349. Numerose illustrazioni in b/n nel testo. Peierls era un fisico britannico, ma tedesco di nascita; prof. di matematica applicata a Birmingham (1937-63), poi di fisica teorica a Oxford (1963-74) e infine (1974-77) a Seattle (università dello stato di Washin…gton). Ha fornito importanti contributi alla fisica teorica dello stato solido (effetto Hall anomalo, conduzione del calore nei cristalli non metallici, interazioni fononiche, diamagnetismo dei metalli), del nucleo (sistema neutrone-protone, reazioni e risonanze nucleari), della diffusione di particelle, delle interazioni "non locali". Peierls stesso, nella prefazione, chiarisce le ragioni che lo hanno indotto a scrivere il libro: le domande del pubblico che, alle sue conferenze su temi specifici, chiedeva chiarimenti e richiami alle nozioni base della fisica che tornava, con piacere, ad illustrare in un linguaggio semplice, abituale, Con poco uso di formule o conteggi. Dalle foto dell'indice si vede come la trattazione vada dalle leggi del moto ai mesoni.

Paperback. Condition: New. This book is a collection of the major scientific papers of Sir Rudolf Peierls (1907-95), including the Peierls-Frisch Memoranda of 1940 on the feasibility, and the predicted human effects, of an atomic bomb made of uranium-235. His papers range widely in topic. They include much on the fundamentals of… solid state physics, the thermal and electric conductivity of materials as a function of temperature T (especially T?0), the interpretation of the de Haas-van Alphen effect observed for a metal in a magnetic field, and the basics of transport theory. Many are on problems in statistical mechanics, including his constructive paper demonstrating the existence of a phase transition for Ising's model for a two-dimensional ferromagnet. In nuclear physics, they include the first calculations (with Bethe) on the photo-disintegration of the deuteron (made in response to a challenge by Chadwick), the Kapur-Peierls theory of resonance phenomena in nuclear reactions, the Bohr-Peierls-Placzek continuum model for complex nuclei (which first explained the narrow resonances observed for low energy neutrons incident on very heavy nuclei), and the Peierls-Thouless variational approach to collective phenomena in nuclei. Several of Peierls's wartime papers, now declassified, are here published for the first time.Brief commentaries on most of the papers in this book were added by Peierls, to indicate subsequent developments and their relationship with other work, or to correct errors found later on. A complete bibliography of his writings is given as an appendix.
