Books in the Cambridge Studies in Low Temperature Physics series

First published in 1989, this book contained the first systematic account of magnetoresistance in metals, the study of which has provided solid-state physicists with much valuable information about electron motion in metals. The level of treatment is aimed at readers with a basic knowledge of undergraduate solid-state physics, and makes no great demand on mathematical ability.

This book is a concise introduction to the experimental technicalities of low and ultralow temperature physics research.

An up-to-date account of the microscopic theory of the dynamics of superfluid 4He, with a focus on the pivotal role of the Bose condensate. The book gives a systematic account of excitations in both the hydrodynamic and collisionless frequency regions.

This book describes the status of photoelectron spectroscopic techniques, both theoretical and experimental, that have been applied to the study of the cuprate ('high-temperature') superconductors. Comparison with results from other experimental techniques is made, and the authors outline expected future developments in the techniques.

This book discusses the properties of quantized vortex lines in superfluid helium-4 in the light of research on vortices in modern fluid mechanics, and gives the first comprehensive treatment of the problem.
