Phase Dynamics — A Review and a Perspective

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Synergetics ((SSSYN,volume 41))

Abstract

That there is a strong similarity between phase transitions in equilibrium systems (as e.g. the paramagnetic-ferromagnetic transition in magnetic systems or the superfluid-normal fluid transition in 4He) and nonequilibrium phase transitions is well established since the pioneering work of Graham and Haken [1] and de- Giorgio and Scully [2], who pointed out the analogy between second order phase transitions and the onset of laser action in the single mode laser in the field of quantum optics. Since then many examples of such a similarity have been found in nonequilibrium systems including fields such as quantum optics, hydrodynamic instabilities, autocatalytic chemical reactions, nonlinear oscillators in diverse fields etc.
