Title: Capillarity today
Description: Beginning with Nobel laureate I. Prigogine's lecture "Entropy Revisited", this book gives a well-balanced survey on capillarity properties at liquid and solid interfaces. It approaches the subject from both the microscopic (statistical mechanics) and the macroscopic (mechanics and thermodynamics) points of view. Experimental aspects and technological applications are also presented. The book addresses researchers and graduate students of physics and physical chemistry.
Subjects: Capillarity, Congresses, Physics, Physical organic Chemistry, Statistical physics, Thermodynamics, Surfaces (Physics)
