Horizons in World Physics

This book presents the latest developments in world physics, including chapters on the neoclassic approach to cosmology based on the invariant integral; the versatile approach to the study of cosmological models; the reexamination of the main method in astronomy; sarma superfluid state in a spin-orbit-coupled fermi gas in a two-dimensional optical lattice; low-cost, high-speed hydrophilic finishing of lightweight polypropylene nonwovens by ambient air plasma; extremely low frequency wave propagation; high harmonic generation and harmonic tuning in undulators for FEL with account for losses; Bose-Einstein-condensate built with focuses electron beam induced processing at room-temperature and novel applications; photodiodes based on thick Ge/Si(001) epilayers; and radiation shielding efficiency of lead zinc borate glasses.
