Kondo Problem to Heavy Fermions

Klappentext 'a superb introduction to this fascinating field.' Physics Today Zusammenfassung The behaviour of magnetic impurities in metals has posed problems to challenge the condensed matter theorist over the past 30 years. This book deals with the concepts and techniques which have been developed to meet this challenge! and will be of interest to condensed matter physicists! particularly those interested in strong correlation problems. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1. Models of magnetic impurities; 2. Resistivity calculations and the resistance minimum; 3. The Kondo problem; 4. Renormalization group calculations; 5. Fermi liquid theories; 6. Exact solutions and the Bethe ansatz; 7. N-fold degenerate models I; 8. N-fold degenerate models II; 9. Theory and experiment; 10. Strongly correlated fermions; Appendices.
