  • Quantum Quenching, Annealing and Computation

    Edited by Anjan Kumar Chandra, Arnab Das, Bikas K. Chakrabarti ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The process of realizing the ground state of some typical (frustrated) quantum many-body systems, starting from the ‘disordered’ or excited states, can be formally mapped to the search of solutions for computationally hard problems. The dynamics through the critical point, in between, are therefore extremely crucial. In the context of such computational optimization problems, the dynamics (of ... Read more

  • Faust in Copenhagen

    A Struggle for the Soul of Physics

    by Gino Segre ...
    A physicist himself, Gino Segrè writes about what scientists do and why they do it with intimacy, clarity, and passion. In Faust in Copenhagen, he evokes the fleeting, magical moment when physics' and the world was about to lose its innocence forever. Known by physicists as the miracle year, 1932 saw the discovery of the neutron and antimatter, as well as the first artificially induced nuclear ... Read more

  • Green Governance

    Ecological Survival, Human Rights, and the Law of the Commons

    by Burns H. Weston, David Bollier ...
    The vast majority of the world's scientists agree: we have reached a point in history where we are in grave danger of destroying Earth's life-sustaining capacity. But our attempts to protect natural ecosystems are increasingly ineffective because our very conception of the problem is limited; we treat 'the environment' as its own separate realm, taking for granted prevailing but outmoded ...

  • The Globalization of Cost-Benefit Analysis in Environmental Policy

    Edited by Michael A. Livermore, Richard L. Revesz ...
    Cost-benefit analysis -- the formal estimating and weighing of the costs and benefits of policy alternatives -- is a standard tool for governments in advanced economies. Through decades of research and innovation, institutions have developed in the United States, European Union, and other developed countries that examine and weigh policy alternatives as an aid to governmental decisionmaking. ...

  • Symmetries in Fundamental Physics

    by Kurt Sundermeyer ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Over the course of the last century it has become clear that both elementary particle physics and relativity theories are based on the notion of symmetries. These symmetries become manifest in that the "laws of nature" are invariant under spacetime transformations and/or gauge transformations. The consequences of these symmetries were analyzed as early as in 1918 by Emmy Noether on the level of ... Read more

  • Beyond Classical Physics

    by Mark A. Cunningham ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This undergraduate textbook discusses the nature of the microscopic universe from a modern perspective, based on Einstein's notions of relativity and Noether's proof of the emergence of conservation laws from symmetries of the equations of motion. These ideas drove the development of the Standard Model of particle physics and subsequent attempts to define a unified (string) theory. The second half ... Read more

  • The European Emission Trading System and Its Followers

    Comparative Analysis and Linking Perspectives

    by Simone Borghesi, Massimiliano Montini, Alessandra Barreca ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Given the rapid spread of ETSs in an increasing number of countries and the important role that they are likely to play for the success or failure of the environmental policy in the years to come, this book provides an interdisciplinary analysis of the EU ETS from both the legal and economic perspectives comparing it with the other main ETSs existing worldwide, in order to assess whether the EU ...

  • Quantum Kinetic Theory

    by Michael Bonitz ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book presents quantum kinetic theory in a comprehensive way. The focus is on density operator methods and on non-equilibrium Green functions. The theory allows to rigorously treat nonequilibrium dynamics in quantum many-body systems. Of particular interest are ultrafast processes in plasmas, condensed matter and trapped atoms that are stimulated by rapidly developing experiments with short ... Read more

  • Transnational Climate Change Governance

    by Harriet Bulkeley, Michele M. Betsill, Daniel Compagnon, Thomas Hale, Matthew J. Hoffmann, Peter Newell, Matthew Paterson, Charles Roger, Stacy D. VanDeveer, Liliana B. Andonova ...
    The world of climate politics is increasingly no longer confined to the activities of national governments and international negotiations. Critical to this transformation of the politics of climate change has been the emergence of new forms of transnational governance that cut across traditional state-based jurisdictions and operate across public and private divides. This book provides the first ... Read more

  • Successful Agricultural Innovation in Emerging Economies

    New Genetic Technologies for Global Food Production

    Edited by David J. Bennett, Richard C. Jennings ...
    World population is forecast to grow from 7 to 9 billion by 2050, 1 in 6 is already hungry and food production must increase by 70-100% if it is to feed this growing population. No single solution will solve this problem but recent developments in the genetic technologies of plant breeding can help to increase agricultural efficiencies and save people from hunger in a sustainable manner, ...
