Classical Mechanics, Volume 3
Classical Mechanics: Newton’s laws and uniform circular motion focuses on the question: “Why does an object move?”. To answer that question, we turn to Isaac Newton. The hallmark of any good introductory physics series is its treatment of Newton’s laws of motion. These laws are difficult concepts...

The Physical Microbe
Physical biology is a fusion of biology and physics. This book narrows down the scope of physical biology by focusing on the microbial cell; exploring the physical phenomena of noise, feedback, and variability that arise in the cellular information-processing circuits used by bacteria. It looks a...

Defining and Measuring Nature
Weights and measures form an essential part of our ingrained view of the world. It is just about impossible to function effectively without some internalized system of measurement, enabling us to estimate and judge size, weight, duration, distance and value. In this volume, author Jeffrey Huw Wil...

Causality Rules
Scattering of light by light is a fundamental process arising at the quantum level through vacuum fluctuations. This short book will explain how, remarkably enough, this quantum process can be described in terms of classical quantities. The description is derived from general principles, such as ...

Advanced Numerical and Theoretical Methods for Photonic Crystals and Metamaterials
This book provides a set of theoretical and numerical tools useful for the study of wave propagation in metamaterials and photonic crystals. While concentrating on electromagnetic waves, most of the material can be used for acoustic (or quantum) waves. For each presented numerical method, numeric...

Physics is…
He’s back! “The Physicist” returns with a whole new set of questions and answers that explore the attributes of physics (practical, beautiful, surprising, cool, frivolous). The answers are responses to people looking for answers to fascinating (and often uninformed) questions. It covers topics su...

Computational Approaches in Physics
Computational Approaches in Physics reviews computational schemes that are used in the simulations of physical systems. These range from very accurate ab initio techniques up to coarse-grained and mesoscopic schemes. A bottom-up approach is used to present the various simulation methods, and outl...

Concepts in Physical Metallurgy
The progress of civilization can be, in part, attributed to their ability to employ metallurgy. This book is an introduction to multiple facets of physical metallurgy, materials science, and engineering. As all metals are crystalline in structure, attention is focussed on these structures, and ho...
