  • Exploring Monte Carlo Methods

    by William L. Dunn, J. Kenneth Shultis ...
    Exploring Monte Carlo Methods is a basic text that describes the numerical methods that have come to be known as "Monte Carlo." The book treats the subject generically through the first eight chapters and, thus, should be of use to anyone who wants to learn to use Monte Carlo. The next two chapters focus on applications in nuclear engineering, which are illustrative of uses in other fields. Five ... Read more

  • Quantum Gravity

    by Carlo Rovelli ...
    Series series Cambridge Monographs on Mathematical Physics
    Quantum gravity is perhaps the most important open problem in fundamental physics. It is the problem of merging quantum mechanics and general relativity, the two great conceptual revolutions in the physics of the twentieth century. The loop and spinfoam approach, presented in this 2004 book, is one of the leading research programs in the field. The first part of the book discusses the ... Read more

  • 100 Years Of Subatomic Physics

    by Ernest M Henley, Stephen D Ellis ...
    By year 1911 radioactivity had been discovered for over a decade, but its origin remained a mystery. Rutherford's discovery of the nucleus and the subsequent discovery of the neutron by Chadwick started the field of subatomic physics — a quest for understanding the fundamental constituents of matter.This book reviews the important achievements in subatomic physics in the past century. The chapters ... Read more

  • Laser Wakefield Electron Acceleration

    A Novel Approach Employing Supersonic Microjets and Few-Cycle Laser Pulses

    by Karl Schmid ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis covers the few-cycle laser-driven acceleration of electrons in a laser-generated plasma. This process, known as laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA), relies on strongly driven plasma waves for the generation of accelerating gradients in the vicinity of several 100 GV/m, a value four orders of magnitude larger than that attainable by conventional accelerators. This thesis demonstrates ... Read more
