Description for Vortices in Unconventional Superconductors and Superfluids
Hardback. Vortices are quantized flux lines which are formed in superconductors, Bose-Einstein condensates and neutron stars. This book summarizes the knowledge in this field. It is suitable for researchers and advanced students. Editor(s): Huebener, Rudolf P.; Volovik, G. E. Series: Springer Series in Solid-State Sciences. Num Pages: 380 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PHFB; PHFC; PHK; TGM; TJFD5. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 22. Weight in Grams: 719.
The physics of vortices in classical fluids has been a highly important subject for many years, both in fundamental science and in engineering applications. About 50 years ago, vortices started to become prominent as quantum me chanical objects constructed from a macroscopic wavefunction. Here the key developments are associated with the names R. Feynman, L. Onsager, L. D. Landau, F. London, V.L. Ginzburg and A.A. Abrikosov. Recently, the physics of vortices has undergone a further important step of diversification, namely in unconventional superconductors and superfluids, which are characterized by an anisotropic and/or spatially complex order parameter. It is this latest ... Read more
