De bekende astrofysicus en wetenschapspionier Carl Sagan stelde al in de jaren tachtig: "Om te begrijpen hoe je een appeltaart bakt, moet je eerst het heelal uitvinden." Geïnspireerd door die legendarische woorden gaat de Britse natuurkundige Harry Cliff op zoek naar de fundamentele materie waaruit het heelal bestaat. Benodigdheden: ingrediënten die je zeker niet in de supermarkt kunt vinden, kosmische ovens met een bereik van biljoenen graden en een bereidingstijd van 13,8 miljard jaar. In opmerkelijk heldere bewoordingen onthult Harry Cliff de meest actuele inzichten over het ontstaan van het heelal, het mysterieuze verschijnsel van antimaterie en spookachtige deeltjes als de neutrino. Hij neemt ons mee op een van de meest uitdagende ontdekkingstochten die de mens ooit heeft ondernomen: die naar de bron van ons bestaan.

Superconductivity in materials without inversion symmetry in the respective crystal structures occurs in the presence of antisymmetric spin-orbit coupling as a consequence of an emerging electric field gradient. The superconducting condensate is then a superposition of spin-singlet and spin-triplet Cooper pairs. This scenario accounts for various experimental findings such as nodes in the superconducting gap or extremely large upper critical magnetic fields. Spin-triplet pairing can occur in non-centrosymmetric superconductors in spite of Anderson's theorem that spin-triplet pairing requires a crystal structure that exhibits inversion symmetry. This book, authored and edited by leading researchers in the field, is both an introduction to and overview on this exciting branch of novel superconductors. Its self-contained and tutorial style makes it particularly suitable for self-study and as source of teaching material for special seminars and courses. At the same time it constitutes an up-to-date and authoritative reference for anyone working in this exciting field.

This text gives a detailed account of various techniques that are used in the study of dynamics of continuous systems, near as well as far from equilibrium. The analytic methods covered include diagrammatic perturbation theory, various forms of the renormalization group and self-consistent mode coupling. Dynamic critical phenomena near a second order phase transition, phase ordering dynamics, dynamics of surface growth and turbulence form the backbone of the book. Applications to a wide variety of systems (e.g. magnets, ordinary fluids, superfluids) are provided covering diverse transport properties (diffusion, sound). It is unique in that it gives a detailed description of perturbation theory for nonlinear continuous systems, it focuses on techniques which can be applied to problems ranging from near equilibrium dynamics to fully developed turbulence, and it provides a discussion of physical properties (e.g. critical ultrasonics) that are generally not covered in text books. Audience: Beginning graduate students, senior undergraduates, researchers
