Metastable Systems under Pressure

  • Conference proceedings
  • © 2010

Overview

  • Contains both review articles as well as novel results at the very cutting edge of the current science
  • There is the first message on the universal onset of the complex dynamics in glasses, the validity of the picture "one liquid — two glasses" for molecular liquids, novel VFT equation counterparts or surprising features of liquid crystals and nanoparticles are extremely hot issue for any specialist in the given field
  • Also clearly interdisciplinary, since it contains a comprehensive presentation of papers ranging from various branches of the soft matter physic through biotechnological issues to environmental/geophysical/deep earth issue
