How did Madonna, subject of public outcry for her controversial performances and her book Sex, become a superstar of pop culture and a role model for teenage girls? Why now, as star of Evita and a new mother, is she becoming a mainstream hero? Karlene Faith says that Madonna signifies the times we live in. We are, in a sense, all responsible for who Madonna is. As fans, moral critics, media journalists, or university scholars, we mediate what she means to our society. And Madonna, as a shrewd career woman, has known how to exploit our attentions with her multiple talents. Her representation of sexual practices and values has not taken place in a political or social vacuum. She has counted on our readiness to witness the smashing of cultural taboos. Feminist reactions to Madonna have been divided. In her early career Madonna was a teenage role model, applauded as a liberated sex crusader. Later, she raised eyebrows by portraying cynical sex with multiple partners across identity boundaries and by capitalizing on sadomasochistic imagery. Madonna, Bawdy & Soul is a celebration and critical analysis of Madonna from a feminist perspective. It will, like Madonna, provoke controversy among fans, critics, and scholars. The book includes a comprehensive listing of songs, videos, tours, films, stage roles, and Internet sites. 606 $aSingers$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aMotion picture actors and actresses$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aSex in popular culture 607 $aUnited States$2fast 608 $aBiographies. 608 $aBiographies. 608 $aBiography 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSingers 615 0$aMotion picture actors and actresses 615 0$aSex in popular culture. 676 $a782.42166/092 700 $aFaith$b Karlene$01626246 702 $aWasserlein$b Frances 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910807106103321 996 $aMadonna, bawdy & soul$93962162 997 $aUNINA LEADER 06190nam 22007695 450 001 9910254616103321 005 20251116160530.0 010 $a3-319-25675-0 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-319-25675-7 035 $a(CKB)3710000000765449 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-319-25675-7 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6313113 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5588331 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL5588331 035 $a(OCoLC)953187331 035 $a(PPN)194514498 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000765449 100 $a20160701d2016 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aAdvanced Quantum Mechanics $eMaterials and Photons /$fby RAINER DICK 205 $a2nd ed. 2016. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Springer,$d2016. 215 $a1 online resource (XIX, 692 p. 63 illus., 36 illus. in color.) 225 1 $aGraduate Texts in Physics,$x1868-4513 311 08$a3-319-25674-2 327 $aThe Need for Quantum Mechanics -- Self-adjoint Operators and Eigenfunction Expansions -- Simple Model Systems -- Notions from Linear Algebra and Bra-Ket Formalism -- Formal Developments -- Harmonic Oscillators and Coherent States -- Central Forces in Quantum Mechanics -- Spin and Addition of Angular Momentum Type Operators -- Stationary Perturbations in Quantum Mechanics -- Quantum Aspects of Materials I -- Scattering Off Potentials -- The Density of States -- Time-Dependent Perturbations in Quantum Mechanics -- Path Integrals in Quantum Mechanics -- Coupling to Electromagnetic Fields -- Principles of Lagrangian Field Theory -- Non-relativistic Quantum Field Theory -- Quantization of the Maxwell Field: Photons -- Quantum Aspects of Materials II -- Dimensional Effects in Low-dimensional Systems -- Relativistic Quantum Fields -- Applications of Spinor QED. 330 $aIn this updated and expanded second edition of a well-received and invaluable textbook, Prof. Dick emphasizes the importance of advanced quantum mechanics for materials science and all experimental techniques which employ photon absorption, emission, or scattering. Important aspects of introductory quantum mechanics are covered in the first seven chapters to make the subject self-contained and accessible for a wide audience. Advanced Quantum Mechanics, Materials and Photons can therefore be used for advanced undergraduate courses and introductory graduate courses which are targeted towards students with diverse academic backgrounds from the Natural Sciences or Engineering. To enhance this inclusive aspect of making the subject as accessible as possible Appendices A and B also provide introductions to Lagrangian mechanics and the covariant formulation of electrodynamics. This second edition includes an additional 62 new problems as well as expanded sections on relativistic quantum fields and applications of quantum electrodynamics. Other special features include an introduction to Lagrangian field theory and an integrated discussion of transition amplitudes with discrete or continuous initial or final states. Once students have acquired an understanding of basic quantum mechanics and classical field theory, canonical field quantization is easy. Furthermore, the integrated discussion of transition amplitudes naturally leads to the notions of tr ansition probabilities, decay rates, absorption cross sections and scattering cross sections, which are important for all experimental techniques that use photon probes. Quantization is first discussed for the Schrödinger field before the relativistic Maxwell, Klein-Gordon and Dirac fields are quantized. Quantized Schrödinger field theory is not only important for condensed matter physics and materials science, but also provides the easiest avenue to general field quantization and is therefore also useful for students with an interest in nuclear and particle physics. The quantization of the Maxwell field is performed in Coulomb gauge. This is the appropriate and practically most useful quantization procedure in condensed matter physics, chemistry, and materials science because it naturally separates the effects of Coulomb interactions, exchange interactions, and photon scattering. The appendices contain additional material that is usually not found in standard quantum mechanics textbooks, including a completeness proof for Eigen functions of one-dimensional Sturm-Liouville problems, logarithms of matrices, and Green?s functions in different dimensions. 410 0$aGraduate Texts in Physics,$x1868-4513 606 $aQuantum theory 606 $aQuantum optics 606 $aOptical materials 606 $aElectronics$xMaterials 606 $aNanoscience 606 $aNanoscience 606 $aNanostructures 606 $aNanotechnology 606 $aQuantum Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19080 606 $aQuantum Optics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24050 606 $aOptical and Electronic Materials$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z12000 606 $aNanoscale Science and Technology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25140 606 $aNanotechnology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z14000 615 0$aQuantum theory. 615 0$aQuantum optics. 615 0$aOptical materials. 615 0$aElectronics$xMaterials. 615 0$aNanoscience. 615 0$aNanoscience. 615 0$aNanostructures. 615 0$aNanotechnology. 615 14$aQuantum Physics. 615 24$aQuantum Optics. 615 24$aOptical and Electronic Materials. 615 24$aNanoscale Science and Technology. 615 24$aNanotechnology. 676 $a530.12 700 $aDick$b Rainer$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0799821 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254616103321 996 $aAdvanced quantum mechanics$92037795 997 $aUNINA
