Symmetry in Quantum Optics Models
(2019)
Prototypical quantum optics models, such as the Jaynes–Cummings, Rabi, Tavis–Cummings, and Dicke models, are commonly analyzed with diverse techniques, including analytical exact solutions, mean-field theory, exact ...
Symmetry in Graph Theory
(2019)
This book contains the successful invited submissions to a Special Issue of Symmetry on the subject of ""Graph Theory"". Although symmetry has always played an important role in Graph Theory, in recent years, this role has ...
Symmetry in Vision
(2017)
Symmetry has a central role in the study of vision. The concept of symmetry has an ancient origin in considerations of visual appearance; in modern times, abstracted and formalized into Group Theory, it has found spectacular ...
Symmetry in Special and General Relativity
(2020)
The development of special and general relativity has relied significantly on ideas of symmetry. Similarly, modern efforts to test these theories have often sought either violations or extensions of the symmetries seen, ...
Solid Phase Extraction: State of the Art and Future Perspectives

Spectral Line Shapes in Astrophysics and Related Topics
(2020)
Spectral lines, widths, and shapes are powerful tools for emitting/absorbing gas diagnostics in different astrophysical objects (from the solar system to the most distant objects in the universe—quasars). On the other hand, ...
Spectral Line Shapes in Plasmas
(2015)
Line-shape analysis is one of the most important tools for diagnostics of both laboratory and space plasmas. Its reliable implementation requires sufficiently accurate calculations, which imply the use of analytic methods ...
Thermo-Mechanical Behaviour of Structural Lightweight Alloys
