"This book presents a large number of numerical topics and exercises together with discussions of methods for solving such problems using Mathematica. The accompanying CD-ROM contains Mathematica Notebooks for illustrating most of the topics in the text and for solving problems in mathematical physics." "Although is it primarily designed for use with the author's Mathematical Methods: For Students of Physics and Related Fields, the discussions in the book are sufficiently self-contained that the book can be used as a supplement to any of the standard textbooks in mathematical methods for undergraduate students of physical sciences or engineering."--Jacket.

The book describes all basic experimental facts about high temperature superconductivity of materials, with a critical temperature of 30 Kelvin and higher, and explains them microscopically starting with a Hamiltonian followed by step-by-step statistical mechanical calculations. All important theoretical formulas are derived without omitting steps and all basic questions are answered in a manner which is easy to understand. The book is therefore suitable as a textbook for a second-year graduate physics course. Many fresh, and some challenging, ideas are presented and researches in the field are invited to examine the text.

This foundational text is written for students who want to go beyond the perceptual stage of music to learn how musical sound is created and perceived. It includes over 300 diagrams, photographs, and tables. Each chapter concludes with questions, problems, and projects, in addition to references for further study.--Provided by publisher.

There has in recent years been a remarkable growth of interest in the area of discrete integrable systems. Much progress has been made by applying symmetry groups to the study of differential equations, and connections have been made to other topics such as numerical methods, cellular automata and mathematical physics. This volume comprises state of the art articles from almost all the leading workers in this important and rapidly developing area, making it a necessary resource for all researchers interested in discrete integrable systems or related subjects.
