The Problem of Information

An Introduction to Information Science

by Douglas Raber ...

Information can be conceptualized in two fundamentally yet contradictory ways-it appears in the world as both a physical and a cognitive phenomenon. The dilemma information specialists face is similar to that of physicists who must cope with light as both a wave and a particle. Unlike physics, however, information science has yet to develop a unified theory that unites the contradictory ... Read more

Extra Dimensions in Space and Time

by Itzhak Bars, John Terning ...

Series series Multiversal Journeys
In physics, the idea of extra spatial dimensions originates from Nordstöm’s 5-dimensional vector theory in 1914, followed by Kaluza-Klein theory in 1921, in an effort to unify general relativity and electromagnetism in a 5 dimensional space-time (4 dimensions for space and 1 for time). Kaluza–Klein theory didn’t generate enough interest with physicist for the next five decades, due to its problems ... Read more

Statistical Physics of Non-Thermal Phase Transitions

From Foundations to Applications

by Sergey G. Abaimov ...

Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
This book addresses the application of methods used in statistical physics to complex systems—from simple phenomenological analogies to more complex aspects, such as correlations, fluctuation-dissipation theorem, the concept of free energy, renormalization group approach and scaling. Statistical physics contains a well-developed formalism that describes phase transitions. It is useful to apply ... Read more

Philosophical Issues in Condensed Matter Physics and Complex Systems

Edited by Brigitte Falkenburg, Margaret Morrison ...

Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
The physics of condensed matter, in contrast to quantum physics or cosmology, is not traditionally associated with deep philosophical questions. However, as science - largely thanks to more powerful computers - becomes capable of analysing and modelling ever more complex many-body systems, basic questions of philosophical relevance arise. Questions about the emergence of structure, the nature of ... Read more
