Novel Superfluids [Complete Two Volume Set]

Describes the latest developments in the field of Superfluidity, one of the most fundamental problems in physics, with applications ranging from metals, helium liquids, photons in cavities, excitons in semiconductors, to the interior of neutron stars and the present state of the Universe as a whole.

K. H. Bennemann is Professor of Physics at the FU Berlin (1971-). He graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana, where he worked with J. Bardeen. He has also been a research Sloan-fellow. He is internationally known in particular for research on magnetism, non-linear optics, superconductivity and ultrafast dynamics in condensed matter.

J. B. Ketterson is Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Northwestern University (1974- ). He was earlier at Argonne National Laboratory (1962 - 1974). He received his PhD from the University of Chicago (1962) under Prof. A. W. Lawson. He specializes in condensed matter physics (electronic properties of metals, liquid helium, superconductivity, cold trapped gasses, magnetism, liquid crystals and Langmuir films, and non linear optics).

Both authors are well known for their classic books on Superfluid He and Superconductivity.
