Correlations in Condensed Matter under Extreme Conditions A tribute to Renato Pucci on the occasion of his 70th birthday

Correlations in Condensed Matter under Extreme Conditions A tribute to Renato Pucci on the occasion of his 70th birthday / edited by G. G. N. Angilella, Antonino La Magna.

This book addresses a wide range of topics relating to the properties and behavior of condensed matter under extreme conditions such as intense magnetic and electric fields, high pressures, heat and cold, and mechanical stresses. It is divided into four sections devoted to condensed matter theory, m...
