Thermal Engineering
This book is a basic textbook of comprehensive thermal science and energy utilization technologies, which is divided into two parts: Engineering Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer. Engineering Thermodynamics mainly introduces the basic concepts and laws of thermodynamics, thermophysical properties of commonly used working medium, analysis of typical thermal processes and cycles and ways to improve the cycle efficiency. Heat Transfer mainly introduces the basic laws of heat conduction, convection and radiation, together with the solving methods and technical measures to control the heat transfer process, and design and check methods for heat exchangers. This book absorbs the experience and advantages of similar textbooks, enriches the discussion of basic concepts and laws, and expands the scope of knowledge of thermal engineering. Whether the readers are students embarking on their academic journey or seasoned engineers seeking to enhance their understanding of thermal phenomena, "Thermal Engineering: Engineering Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer" is an indispensable resource that bridges theory with practice, offering invaluable insights into the complexities of thermal systems and their relevance to modern engineering challenges.
A Course in Quantum Many-Body Theory
This textbook presents various methods to deal with quantum many-body systems, mainly addressing interacting electrons. It focusses on basic tools to tackle quantum effects in macroscopic systems of interacting particles, and on fundamental concepts to interpret the behavior of such systems as revealed by experiments.The textbook starts from simple concepts like second quantization, which allows one to include the indistinguishability and statistics of particles in a rather simple framework, and linear response theory. Then, it gradually moves towards more technical and advanced subjects, including recent developments in the field. The diagrammatic technique is comprehensively discussed. Some of the advanced topics include Landau's Fermi liquid theory, Luttinger liquids, the Kondo effect, and the Mott transition.The ultimate goal of the book is to gain comprehension of physical quantities that are routinely measured experimentally and fully characterize the system, therefore it is useful for graduate students but also young researchers studying and investigating the theoretical aspects of condensed matter physics.
