Statistical Physics and Spatial Statistics The Art of Analyzing and Modeling Spatial Structures and Pattern Formation / edited by Klaus R. Mecke, Dietrich Stoyan.

Modern physics is confronted with a large variety of complex spatial patterns. Although both spatial statisticians and statistical physicists study random geometrical structures, there has been only little interaction between the two up to now because of different traditions and languages. This volu...
