Applications of Statistical and Field Theory Methods to Condensed Matter

Applications of Statistical and Field Theory Methods to Condensed Matter edited by Dionys Baeriswyl, Alan R. Bishop, J. Camelo.

There is no doubt that we have, during the last decade, moved into a "golden age" of condensed matter science. The sequence of discoveries of novel new states of matter and their rapid assimilation into experimental and theoretical research, as well as devices, has been remarkable. To name...
