Nicolaas 'Nico' Godfried Van Kampen 1921 -2013 Was A Dutch Theoretical Physicist Who Worked Mainly On Statistical Mechanics And Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics. Van Kampen Was Born In Leiden And Was A Nephew Of Frits Zernike. He Studied Physics At Leiden University Where In 1952 Under The Direction Of Hendrik Anthony Kramers He Earned His Phd With Thesis Contributions To The Quantum Theory Of Light Scattering. He Showed In His Thesis How To Deal With Singularities In Quantum Mechanical Scattering Processes Which Was An Important Step In The Development Of Renormalization According To Kramers. Van Kampen Made Fundamental Contributions To Non-Equilibrium Processes In Particular On The Master Equation And In Many-Body Theory Especially In Plasma Physics. His Work On Non-Equilibrium Processes Began In 1953 In The Research Group Of Sybren Ruurds De Groot The Successor To Kramers In Leiden. In 1955 Van Kampen Joined The Institute Of Theoretical Physics At Utrecht University Where He Later Became Full Professor And Professor Emeritus After His Retirement. His Monograph Stochastic Processes In Physics And Chemistry 1981 Is Considered A Classic. In His 2002 Book Waanwetenschap Science Van Kampen Condemned What He Saw As Pseudoscience Even Within The Scientific Community; The Book Met With A Mixed Reaction - Five Scientists Including Vincent Icke Floris Takens And Dennis Dieks Wrote A Commentary On His Book. Nico Van Kampen Was An Uncle Of The Dutch Theoretical Physicist And Nobel Prize Winner Gerard 'T Hooft And He Encouraged 'T Hooft To Study Physics In Utrecht.7 Van Kampen Was A Member Of The Royal Netherlands Academy Of Arts And Sciences Since 1973. Nico Van Kampen Was A Severe Critic Of Non-Orthodox Interpretations Of Quantum Mechanics. Some Of His Views On This Subject Were Published In An Article Entitled The Scandal Of Quantum Mechanics . He Disclosed His Own Approach To Quantum Mechanics In A Paper Entitled Ten Theorems About Quantum Mechanical Measurements. Courtesy Wikipedia. <br/> <br/> Rijksuniversiteit Te Utrecht paperback

Minor wear/soiling to boards. Bound volume includes Numbers 1-4. Binding has the name of R. J. Thompson in gilt lettering on front board. Dr. Thompson was Special Assistant to the Director of the Applied Physics Laboratory and had a long professional involvement with rocket technology development. He joined the Applied Physics Laboratory in 1974. The Johns Hopkins APL Technical Digest is an unclassified technical journal published quarterly by APL. The objective of the publication is to communicate the work performed at the Laboratory to its sponsors and to the scientific and engineering communities defense establishment academia and industry. Founded on March 10 1942-just three months after the United States entered World War II-APL was created as part of a federal government effort to mobilize scientific resources to address wartime challenges. APL was assigned the task of finding a more effective way for ships to defend themselves against enemy air attacks. The Laboratory designed built and tested a radar proximity fuze that significantly increased the effectiveness of anti-aircraft shells in the Pacific-and later ground artillery during the invasion of Europe. The product of the Laboratory's intense development effort was later judged to be along with the atomic bomb and radar one of the three most valuable technology developments of the war. On the basis of that successful collaboration the government The Johns Hopkins University and APL made a commitment to continue their strategic relationship. The Laboratory rapidly became a major contributor to advances in guided missiles and submarine technologies. Today more than seven decades later the Laboratory's numerous and diverse achievements continue to strengthen our nation. APL continues to relentlessly pursue the mission it has followed since its first day: to make critical contributions to critical challenges for our nation. Johns Hopkins APL hardcover
