Product Description An important field in chemical physics is the study of atomic vibrations in various media. Atomic vibrations are of great interest because they are responsible for the storage and transport of heat. The behavior of vibrations in ordered, crystalline materials has been extensively researchedand documented. This research book aims to give the first unified treatment of vibrational dynamics in a variety of disordered systems such as disordered lattices, liquids, and glasses. About the Author S.N. Taraskin and S.R. Elliott are both in the Department of Chemistry at Cambridge University.
