  • Quantum Plasmas

    An Hydrodynamic Approach

    by Fernando Haas ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book provides an overview of the basic concepts and new methods in the emerging scientific area known as quantum plasmas. In the near future, quantum effects in plasmas will be unavoidable, particularly in high density scenarios such as those in the next-generation intense laser-solid density plasma experiment or in compact astrophysics objects. Currently, plasmas are in the forefront of many ... Read more

  • Dense Matter in Compact Stars

    A Pedagogical Introduction

    by Andreas Schmitt ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The purpose and motivation of these lectures can be summarized in the following two questions: • What is the ground state (and its properties) of dense matter? • What is the matter composition of a compact star? The two questions are, of course, strongly coupled to each other. Depending on your point of view, you can either consider the ?rst as the main question and the second as a consequence or ...
