Book Description
This book is devoted to the development and application of the quasiparticle approach in the modern theory of solids in order to present some new results, ideas and phenomena. Considerable attention is paid to defects in quantum crystals.The volume, presenting a detailed discussion of quasiparticle mechanics and kinetics in nonstationary deformed solids, would be of particular interest to a wide class of specialists, lecturers and students in physics and mathematics.
Editorial Reviews
Review
“The chapter on the dynamics of deformable crystals with quasiparticles presents quite an original treatment of the problem posed by the crystalline periodicity and the fact that the ‘local dispersion relation’ … is really with respect to the comoving frame which is inertial. The author has presented a consistent and complete treatment of this problem that should be of interest to any condensed matter theorist … should be a useful reference text for theorists working in low and ultra-low temperature physics of quantum solids and quantum liquids. It is strongly recommended for libraries serving condensed matter physicists.” Indian J of Pure & Appl. Phys., India, 1992
