snowflakes book kenneth libbrecht: Snow Crystals Kenneth G. Libbrecht, 2021-12-21 Despite substantial, cross-disciplinary interest in the subject as a scientific case study, surprisingly little has been written on the science of snowflakes and their formation. For materials scientists, snowflakes constitute archetypal examples of crystal growth; for chemists, the site of complex molecular dynamics at the ice surface. Physicists can learn from snowflake symmetry and self-assembly; geologists study snow as mineral crystals; and biologists can even gain insight into the creation of shape and order in organisms. In the humble snowflake are condensed many of the processes-many of them still not fully understood-that govern the organization of classical systems at all levels of the natural world. This book by Kenneth Libbrecht-inarguably the world's foremost expert on the subject-will be the authoritative text on the science of snow crystals. It will cover all of the physical processes that govern the life of a snowflake, including how snowflakes grow and why they have the shapes they do. It will also outline techniques for creating and experimenting with snow crystals, both with computer models and in the lab. Featuring hundreds of color illustrations, the book will be comprehensive and is sure to become definitive resource for researchers for years, if not decades, to come-- |

snowflakes book kenneth libbrecht: The Six-Cornered Snowflake Johannes Kepler, 2010-01-01 In 1611, Kepler wrote an essay wondering why snowflakes always had perfect, sixfold symmetry. It's a simple enough question, but one that no one had ever asked before and one that couldn't actually be answered for another three centuries. Still, in trying to work out an answer, Kepler raised some fascinating questions about physics, math, and biology, and now you can watch in wonder as a great scientific genius unleashes the full force of his intellect on a seemingly trivial question, complete with new illustrations and essays to put it all in perspective.—io9, from their list 10 Amazing Science Books That Reveal The Wonders Of The Universe When snow began to fall while he was walking across the Charles Bridge in Prague late in 1610, the eminent astronomer Johannes Kepler asked himself the following question: Why do snowflakes, when they first fall, and before they are entangled into larger clumps, always come down with six corners and with six radii tufted like feathers? In his effort to answer this charming and never-before-asked question about snowflakes, Kepler delves into the nature of beehives, peapods, pomegranates, five-petaled flowers, the spiral shape of the snail's shell, and the formative power of nature itself. While he did not answer his original question—it remained a mystery for another three hundred years—he did find an occasion for deep and playful thought. A most suitable book for any and all during the winter and holiday seasons is a reissue of a holiday present by the great mathematician and astronomer Johannes Kepler…Even the endnotes in this wonderful little book are interesting and educationally fun to read.—Jay Pasachoff, The Key Reporter —New English translation by Jacques Bromberg —Latin text on facing pages —An essay, The Delights of a Roving Mind by Owen Gingerich —An essay, On The Six-Cornered Snowflake by Guillermo Bleichmar —Snowflake illustrations by Capi Corrales Rodriganez —John Frederick Nims' poem The Six-Cornered Snowflake —Notes by Jacques Bromberg and Guillermo Bleichmar |

snowflakes book kenneth libbrecht: A Prelude to Quantum Field Theory John Donoghue, Lorenzo Sorbo, 2022-03-08 A Prelude to Quantum Field Theory offers a short introduction to quantum field theory (QFT), a powerful framework for understanding particle behavior that is an essential tool across many subfields of physics. A subject that is typically taught at the graduate level in most physics departments, quantum field theory is a unification of standard quantum theories and special relativity, which depicts all particles as excitations that arise in underlying fields. It extends quantum mechanics, the modern theory of one or few particles, in a way that is useful for the analysis of many-particle systems in the real world. As it requires a different style of thinking from quantum mechanics, which is typically the undergraduate physics student's first encounter with the quantum world, many beginners struggle with the transition to quantum field theory, especially when working with traditional textbooks. Existing books on the subject often tend to be large, sophisticated, and complete; and an overwhelming wealth of information and technical detail makes it difficult for the novice to discern what is most important. This book is a concise, friendly entrée for QFT-beginners, guiding the reader from the style of quantum mechanical thinking to that of QFT, and distilling the key ideas without a welter of unnecessary detail. In contrast with standard texts, which are predominantly particle physics-centric, this book is designed to be subfield-neutral - usable by students of any background and interest, and easily adaptable in a course setting according to instructors' preferences. The authors' conviction is that QFT is a core element of physics that should be understood by all PhD physicists-but that developing an appreciation for it does not require digesting a large, encyclopedic volume-- |

snowflakes book kenneth libbrecht: Capturing Snowflakes Kenneth Libbrecht, Rachel Wing, 2021-10-05 High above the Earth, a snowflake is born. Crystalline branches form around a nucleus of microscopic dust, creating a one-of-a-kind natural design. Because it weighs next to nothing, a snow crystal may take hours to fall-finally landing where Kenneth Libbrecht's remarkable microphotography can capture the fleeting beauty and complexity of winter's frozen artistry. The wonder of snowflakes lies partly in how they are fashioned into such complex and symmetrical shapes with no blueprints or genetic codes to guide their formation. The snowflake is a fleeting, mysterious work of nature's art that has long fascinated humans. The first medieval scientist was so astounded by their remarkable symmetry that he wondered if these ice crystals might have souls. Indeed, how do they develop into such a never-ending and endlessly fascinating variety of intricate, lacy patterns? Join the world's leading snowflake expert, Caltech physicist Kenneth Libbrecht, as he delightfully chronicles the creation of the snow crystal, both in nature and in the laboratory. With this captivating book and keepsake ornament, we can better appreciate the snowflake's frozen artistry. Book jacket. |

snowflakes book kenneth libbrecht: Quantum Mechanics Phillip James Edwin Peebles, 1992-04-12 From the Nobel Prize–winning physicist P. J. E. Peebles teaches the often counterintuitive physics of quantum mechanics by working through detailed applications of general ideas. A principal example used in the book is the hyperfine structure of atomic hydrogen (the 21 cm line): the computation of the energy splitting and the induced and spontaneous transition rates. Peebles makes room for such calculations by omitting unneeded elements that can be readily found in the standard treatises after one fully understands the principles of quantum mechanics. To give a flavor of the discovery of the remarkable world picture of quantum mechanics, the author presents a set of examples of physics that are well worth knowing even aside from their historical interest. Then the general principles of quantum mechanics are stated first in terms of wave mechanics and then in the standard abstract linear space formalism. Measurement theory, an essential part of quantum mechanics, is discussed in some detail. The book also emphasizes the art of numerical estimates. And, lastly, a large number of problems are presented, some easy, some challenging, but all selected because they are physically interesting. The book is designed for advanced undergraduates or beginning graduate students in physics. |
snowflakes book kenneth libbrecht: Quantum Field Theory Eduardo Fradkin, 2021-03-23 The only graduate-level textbook on quantum field theory that fully integrates perspectives from high-energy, condensed-matter, and statistical physics Quantum field theory was originally developed to describe quantum electrodynamics and other fundamental problems in high-energy physics, but today has become an invaluable conceptual and mathematical framework for addressing problems across physics, including in condensed-matter and statistical physics. With this expansion of applications has come a new and deeper understanding of quantum field theory—yet this perspective is still rarely reflected in teaching and textbooks on the subject. Developed from a year-long graduate course Eduardo Fradkin has taught for years to students of high-energy, condensed-matter, and statistical physics, this comprehensive textbook provides a fully multicultural approach to quantum field theory, covering the full breadth of its applications in one volume. Brings together perspectives from high-energy, condensed-matter, and statistical physics in both the main text and exercises Takes students from basic techniques to the frontiers of physics Pays special attention to the relation between measurements and propagators and the computation of cross sections and response functions Focuses on renormalization and the renormalization group, with an emphasis on fixed points, scale invariance, and their role in quantum field theory and phase transitions Other topics include non-perturbative phenomena, anomalies, and conformal invariance Features numerous examples and extensive problem sets Also serves as an invaluable resource for researchers |

snowflakes book kenneth libbrecht: Atmospheric Halos Walter Tape, 2013-03-15 Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Antarctic Research Series, Volume 64. Archdeacon Stuck was seeing halos formed in moonlight. Their daytime counterparts are surprisingly common, not only in the arctic but in temperate climates as well. Many halos are possible, forming arcs of colored or white light almost anywhere in the sky. Their occasional brilliance, variety, and exotic shapes have impressed skywatchers for centuries. This book introduces halos and tries to convey some of their beauty. It tells much of what is known about them: how they arise, how so many are possible, and why some are rare, while others occur every few days or so. No such insights, of course, are necessary for the enjoyment of a halo display; indeed, an elaborate display is one of Nature's wonders. Nevertheless, understanding can add to enjoyment, especially since the makings of a great display turn out to be as remarkable as the display itself. |
