Overview: A new theoretical approach to understanding the dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates.Develops optimized models that are shown to perform better than conventional models.Nominated as an outstanding co.At extremely low temperatures, clouds of bosonic atoms form what is known as a Bose-Einstein condensate. Recently, it has become clear that many different types of condensates? -- so called fragmented condensates -- exist. In order to tell whether fragmentation occurs or not, it is necessary to solve the full many-body Schr?dinger equation, a task that remained elusive for experimentall

Overview: Certain noises, many aspects of turbulence, and almost all aspects of finance exhibit a level of temporal and spatial variability whose "wildness" impressed itself vividly upon the author, Benoit Mandelbrot, in the early 1960‘s. He soon realized that those phenomena cannot be described by simply adapting the statistical techniques of earlier physics, or even extending those techniques slightly. It appeared that the study of finance and turbulence could not move forward without the recognition that those phenomena represented a new second stage of indeterminism. Altogether new mathema

Overview: At the 50th Anniversary Meeting of the Institute of Food Technologists the ten most significant innovations in food science developed during the past 50 years were named (Food Technology, September 1989). Among the "Top 10" innovations, controlled atmosphere packaging (CAP) for fruits and vegetables was listed 5th in order of importance. Of course, CAP is a forerunner of MAP (modified atmosphere packaging) in which a variety of food products are packaged under selective mixtures of atmospheric gases, but without the on-going maintenance (control) of the gas mixture. Development of pa

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .This volume is a sequel to “Manis Valuation and Prüfer Extensions I,” LNM1791. The Prüfer extensions of a commutative ring A are roughly those commutative ring extensions R / A, where commutative algebra is governed by Manis valuations on R with integral values on A. These valuations then turn out to belong to the particularly amenable subclass of PM (=Prüfer-Manis) valuations. While in Volume I Prüfer extensions in general and individual PM valuations were studied, now the focus is on families of PM valuations. One highlight is the presentation of a

Overview: First and definitive Mootools book by one of the framework developers.Proof-read by the development team of the framework.Book to be endorsed by open source Mootools project and CNET.Mootools is a light, modular JavaScript framework that makes adding Ajax, animations, and interactive elements to your site a breeze. But it‘s more than fancy effects and shortcuts; Mootools enhances the JavaScript language and makes writing clean, object–oriented code almost pleasant. Unlocking the power of Mootools, and therefore JavaScript, isn‘t that hard, but knowing where to start can be. .Mootools

Overview: Chronicles the history of the now notorious Mars One venture from concept to candidate selection.Explains the technological and medical infeasibility of the Mars One plans, with direct comparisons to .This book dissects the hype and hubris of the Mars One venture. Every aspect of the mission design is scrutinized, from?the haphazard selection process to the unproven mission architecture. A controversial project, many professional astronauts consider Mars One a reckless attempt, yet it gained popular attention..This go-to reference guide provides the reader with insights into the myri

Overview: .Models, Methods, Concepts and Applications of the AnalyticHierarchy. .Process. is a volume dedicated to selectedapplications of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) focused on threethemes: economics, the social sciences, and the linking of measurementwith human values. (1) The AHP offers economists a substantiallydifferent approach to dealing with economic problems through ratioscales. The main mathematical models on which economics has based itsquantitative thinking up to now are utility theory, which usesinterval scales, and linear programming. We hope that the variety ofexamples

Overview: The generalized area of multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) can be defined as the body of methods and procedures by which the concern for multiple conflicting criteria can be formally incorporated into the analytical process. MCDM consists mostly of two branches, multiple criteria optimization and multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA). While MCDA is typically concerned with multiple criteria problems that have a small number of alternatives often in an environment of uncertainty (location of an airport, type of drug rehabilitation program), multiple criteria optimization is ty

Overview: Represents a broad range of positions on the sources of modal knowledge, highlighting the new trend toward empiricism in modal epistemology.Features essays that explore candidate empirical sources andThis collection highlights the new trend away from rationalism and toward empiricism in the epistemology of modality. Accordingly, the book represents a wide range of positions on the empirical sources of modal knowledge. Readers will find an introduction that surveys the field and provides a brief overview of the work, which progresses from empirically-sensitive rationalist accounts to
