Description: Modern Approach to Critical Phenomena, Paperback by Herbut, Igor, ISBN 0521142385, ISBN-13 9780521142380, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US The study of critical phenomena is one of the most exciting areas of modern physics. Originally published in 2007. this book provides a thorough but economic introduction into the principles and techniques of the theory of critical phenomena and the renormalization group, from the perspective of modern condensed matter physics. Assuming basic knowledge of quantum and statistical mechanics, th discusses phase transitions in magnets, superfluids, superconductors, and gauge feld theories. particular attention is given to modern topics such as gauge field fluctuations in superconductors, the kosterlitz-Thouless transitionm, duality transformatins, and quantum phase transitions, all of which are a the forefront of today's physics reseach. A modern Approach to critical phenomena contains numerous problems of varying degrees of difficulty, with solutions. these provlems provide readers with a wealth of material to test their understanding of the subject. it is ideal for graduate students and more experienced researcheres in the fields of condensed matter physics , statistical physics and many-body physics.
