This memorial quantity in honor of Dr Akira Tonomura is to commemorate his huge, immense contributions to primary physics as well as the elemental know-how of electron microscopy. Dr Tonomura kicked the bucket on may possibly 2, 2012 on the age of 70. He was once Fellow of Hitachi, Ltd., workforce Director of unmarried Quantum Dynamics learn crew of RIKEN, critical Investigator of the 1st Tonomura venture, and Professor of Okinawa Institute of technological know-how and expertise Graduate college.
The booklet contains: 1) contributions from amazing physicists, who participated within the "Tonomura FIRST overseas Symposium on Electron Microscopy and Gauge Fields" deliberate by means of Tonomura himself and held in Tokyo on could 9-10, 2012, and a pair of) reprints of key papers by means of Tonomura and his group. Invited audio system at this Symposium contain Chen Ning Yang and different unique physicists similar to Yakir Aharonov, Gordon Baym, Christian Colliex, Anthony J Leggett, Naoto Nagaosa, Nobuyuki Osakabe and Masahito Ueda. This "memorial" Symposium used to be initially deliberate to commemorate the beginning of the Japanese-government-sponsored FIRST Tonomura undertaking to build the 1.2 MV holography electron microscope able to looking at quantum phenomena within the microscopic global. furthermore, the ebook contains contributions from contributors of the earlier ISQM-Tokyo symposia held at Hitachi and from Tonomura's longtime associates, together with Michael Berry, Jerome Friedman, Hidetoshi Fukuyama, Joseph Imry, Yoshinori Tokura, Jaw-Shen Tsai, and Anton Zeilinger.
The co-editors are Kazuo Fujikawa, Tonomura's longtime pal, and Yoshimasa A Ono who's Tonomura's affiliate at Hitachi complex learn Laboratory and now within the FIRST Tonomura undertaking.
Readership: Graduate scholars and researchers in physics, fabrics technological know-how and similar fields.
