Riassunto

Cluster als mesoskopische Teilchen bilden das Bindeglied zwischen der Atom- und Molekülphysik auf der einen und der Physik der kondensierten Materie auf der anderen Seite. Die technische Entwicklung hin zu immer kleineren Dimensionen erfordert eine umfassende Kenntnis von Systemen, die aus nur "wenigen" Teilchen bestehen. Als Einführung in das Gebiet der Cluster-Physik mit Ausrichtung auf die Clusterdynamik schließt das Buch eine Lücke in der vorhandenen Literatur. Die Beschreibung der Clusterdynamik berücksichtigt sowohl aktuelle Entwicklungen in der Femtosekunden-Spektroskopie als auch im Bereich der zeitabhängigen Dichtefunktionaltheorie.

Informazioni sull'autore

Paul-Gerhard Reinhard has been professor for Theoretical Physics at the Friedrich-Alexander university Erlangen/Nürnberg since 1983. He received his PhD in 1970 at the Johann-Wolfgang-Goethe university Frankfurt. His post-doctoral studies brought him to Erlangen, Oxford, and Mainz. He obtained his Habilitation in 1977 at the Johannes-Gutenberg university in Mainz. He was fellow of the Heisenberg program in the years 1978-1983. His present research interests cover cluster physics, nuclear structure physics and plasma physics.

Eric Suraud has been professor for Theoretical Physics at the Paul-Sabatier university in Toulouse, France, since 1992. He received his PhD in 1984 at the Paris university and his Habilitation in 1989 at the Grenoble university. He was junior member of Institut Universitaire de France in 1994-1999. He is presently director of the Institute de Recherche sur les Systemes Atomiques et Moleculaires Complexes in Toulouse and Vice Director of Institut de Physique Nucléaire et des Particules at CNRS in Paris. His present research interests mostly cover cluster physics and nuclear dynamics.

Dalla quarta di copertina

Clusters as mesoscopic particles represent an intermediate state of matter between single atoms and solid materials. The tendency to miniaturise technical objects requires knowledge about systems which contain a “small” number of atoms or molecules only. This is all the more true for dynamical aspects, particularly in relation to the quick development of laser technology and femtosecond spectroscopy.

Here, for the first time is a highly qualitative introduction to cluster physics. With its emphasis on cluster dynamics, this will be vital to everyone involved in this interdisciplinary subject. The authors cover the dynamics of clusters on a broad level, including recent developments of femtosecond laser spectroscopy on the one hand and time-dependent density functional theory calculations on the other.
