This excellent text offers comprehensive treatment of the light-scattering properties of small, independent particles, covering both basic scattering theory and particular computations with different kinds of particles.
Axiomatic and constructive approaches to quantum field theory first aim to establish it on precise, nonperturbative bases: general axioms and rigorous definition of specific theories respectively. From the viewpoint of particle physics, the goal is then to develop a relativistic…
Soft matter (polymers, colloids, surfactants and liquid crystals) are an important class of materials in modern technology. They also form the basis of many future technologies, for example in medical and environmental applications. Soft matter shows complex behaviour between fl…

Scattering theory is, roughly speaking, perturbation theory of self-adjoint operators on the (absolutely) continuous spectrum. It has its origin in mathematical problems of quantum mechanics and is intimately related to the theory of partial differential equations. Some recently…
"Fundamentals of carrier transport is an introduction to the behavior of charged carriers in semiconductors and semiconductor devices. It is written specifically for engineers and students who do not have an extensive background in quantum mechanics and solid-state physics. This…
Discusses optical effects we see in the sky including sun pillars, sundogs, glories and mirages. Three of the seven chapters focus on ice crystal effects. Suitable for both layman and scientist.
