Description for Spatial Hysteresis and Optical Patterns
Hardback. Devoted to the study of optical patterns and to optical bistability and hysteresis, this text is at the intersection of investigations in synergetics and modern nonlinear optics. Addressing researchers as well as students, it studies the rich class of spatially distributed bistable optical systems. Series: Springer Series in Synergetics. Num Pages: 308 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PHJ; PHK. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 19. Weight in Grams: 631.
This book addresses a subject at the crossing point of two lines of investi gation - synergetics and modern nonlinear optics. First, the book is devoted to optical patterns that previously were mainly attributed to the display of instabilities of homogeneous field distributions. Second, we deal with optical bistability and hysteresis, which historically were studied predominantly for point (lumped, spatially nondistributed) systems. In the book, which seems to be the first monograph devoted to opti cal patterns, I attempt to demonstrate that the variety of optical patterns and other synergetical phenomena is especially rich in spatially distributed bistable systems, and ...

Reviews for Spatial Hysteresis and Optical Patterns
"This book is very well written and contains many important and new original results that certainly play an important role in today’s nonlinear optics." (Physicalia, 25/3, 2003)
