ANNUAL REVIEWS OF COMPUTATIONAL PHYSICS IV

edited by Dietrich Stauffer (Cologne University)

Quantum phenomena and methods are the core of this volume in our series which publishes rapidly reviews of topics in computational physics. In addition, we look at phase transitions in Ising lattices, in continuum fluids, polymer solutions, and end with biological ageing. As before, papers were submitted by e-mail, and these files were used directly to produce the book, for increased speed and reliability.


Contents:

  • Preface (D Stauffer)
  • Simulations of Magnetic Fluids (M J P Nijmeijer & J J Weis)
  • Critical Phenomena in Simple and Complex Fluids (N B Wilding)
  • Quantum Monte Carlo on a Lattice: The World Line Algorithm (G G Batrouni)
  • Computer Simulation of Quantum Phenomena in Nanoscale Devices (H De Raedt)
  • Tight-Binding Molecular Dynamics (L Colombo)
  • Adsorption–Desorption Processes and Related Quantum Spin Models (M D Grynberg)
  • Series Expansions versus Simulations (J Adler)
  • High Speed Algorithms and Simulations of the Critical Dynamics of the Ising Model (H-O Heuer)
  • Larson models of Amphiphiles in Complex Fluids (T B Liverpool)
  • Monte Carlo Simulations of Biological Ageing (A T Bernardes)


Readership: Scientists and researchers in computational physics and condensed matter physics.
