Description

Structural Phase Transitions II, Paperback by Müller, K. A. (CON); Thomas, Ha.... Both techniques are particularly sensitive to local properties. Structural Phase Transitions II, Paperback by Müller, K. A. (CON); Thomas, Harry (EDT); Fayet, J. C. (CON); Borsa, Ferdinando (CON), ISBN 3662101157, ISBN-13 9783662101155, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Structural Phase Transitions II , like its predecessor (Topics in Current Physics, Vol. 23), presents selected methods and recent advances in the experimental investigation of phase transitions in solids. The two chapters in this volume deal with electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and with nuclear magnetic and nuclear quadrupole resonance (NMR-NQR). Both techniques are particularly sensitive to local properties. The chapter on EPR concentrates largely on the investigation of static properties, including mean-field behaviour, critical and multicritical phenomena, whilst NMR is shown to be a powerful tool for studying nonlinear dynamics, incommensurate transitions, and disordered systems. This book will serve as an excellent introduction to the methodology and applications of EPR and NMR-NQR for all those wishing to become acquainted with these important tools for studying structural phase transitions.
