On the calculation of specific heats, thermal pressure coefficients and compressibilities in molecular dynamics simulations
Abstract Expressions are derived for the specific heat, Cv , the thermal pressure coefficient, γ v , and the adiabatic compressibility, β S , in terms of the fluctuations of the...
An Instance in Thermal Convection of Eddington's "Overstability"
The existence of modes of cellular convection driven by thermal instability which are oscillatory in type, rather than steady, has been predicted theoretically for systems that ...
Mechanical Action of Light on Atoms
Control of atomic motion with resonant laser light is the most interesting field of research which is rapidly expanding. The book discusses the latest theoretical and experiment...
The semiclassical theory of laser cooling
This paper reviews the basic theory of the mechanical action of light in resonant interaction with atoms. At present the main application is laser cooling, but the approach is a...
