Understanding Quantum Phase Transitions
Series: Condensed Matter Physics
Quantum phase transitions (QPTs) offer wonderful examples of the radical macroscopic effects inherent in quantum physics: phase changes between different forms of matter driven by quantum rather than thermal fluctuations, typically at very low temperatures. QPTs provide new insight into outstanding...

Thermodynamics of the Glassy State
Series: Condensed Matter Physics
In the past thirty years, the area of spin glasses has experienced rapid growth, including the development of solvable models for glassy systems. Yet these developments have only been recorded in the original research papers, rather than in a single source. Thermodynamics of the Glassy State...

One- and Two-Dimensional Fluids
Properties of Smectic, Lamellar and Columnar Liquid Crystals
Series: Condensed Matter Physics
Smectic and lamellar liquid crystals are three-dimensional layered structures in which each layer behaves as a two-dimensional fluid. Because of their reduced dimensionality they have unique physical properties and challenging theoretical descriptions, and are the subject of much current research....

The Magnetocaloric Effect and its Applications
Series: Condensed Matter Physics
The magnetocaloric effect describes the change in temperature of a magnetic material under adiabatic conditions through the application or removal of an external magnetic field. This effect is particularly pronounced at temperatures and fields corresponding to magnetic phase transitions, and it is...
