OUVRAGE SCIENTIFIQUE
This
volume is the fourth edition of thebook on the Langevin equation method
for the solution of problems involving the translational and rotational
Brownian motion of particles and spins in a potential highlighting
modern applications in physics, chemistry, electrical engineering,
nanomagnetism, spintronics, and so on. In order to improve the
presentation, to accommodate all the new developments, and to appeal to
the specialized interests of the various communities involved, the book
has been extensively rewritten and a very large amount of new material
has been added. This has been done in order to present a comprehensive
overview of the subject emphasizing via a synergetic approach that
seemingly unrelated physical problems involving random noise may be
described using virtually identical mathematical methods in the spirit
of the founders of the subject, viz., Einstein, Langevin, Smoluchowski,
Kramers, etc. The book has been written in such a way that all the
material should be useful both to an advanced researcher and a
beginning graduate student. It draws together, in a coherent fashion, a
variety of results which have hitherto been available only in the form
of scattered research papers and review articles.
L’Equipe PHYSIQUE regroupe 9 enseignants-chercheurs (4PR et 5
MCF)
de l’Université de Perpignan Via Domitia. Ce regroupement
est le
résultat d’un processus de rapprochement continu
initié il y a
maintenant plusieurs années pour assurer les recherches de
qualité en
physique au sein d’une structure pluridisciplinaire.
Les activités scientifiques de la composante PHYSIQUE combinent
des
modélisations et des études théoriques
synergétiques des phénomènes
irréversibles avec applications dans les domaines de la
Mécanique des
Fluides, de l'Energétique, de la Physique Moléculaire, du
Nanomagnétisme, de la Physique Statistique et de la Physique
d'un gaz
d'électrons et des semi-conducteurs très dopés.
La responsable de cette équipe est Adina Velcescu.
