This graduate-level introduction to the theory and applications of time correlation functions and the molecular theory of fluid dynamics provides experimentalists with the theoretical tools useful for analysis of experimental results, and theoreticians a comprehensive source of illustrations of theories most relevant in practical applications. The book reviews the concepts, basic tools and basic approximations of molecular hydrodynamics, then explores self-diffusion, space-dependent diffusion, hydrodynamic fluctuations, fluctuations at finite wavelengths and finite frequencies. 110 illustrations.

Gem,
This review is from: Molecular Hydrodynamics (Paperback)
This is an excellent monograph. The authors beautifully introduce and motivate the need to go beyond the long wavelength hydrodynamic model in order to understand, for instance, the dispersive character of linear waves in fluid medium by accounting for short range structural order. Morever, it serves as a very good text for learning classical statistical mechanics and see it being used. Many thanks to the authors for sharing their knowledge and devoting their time to produce this exhaustive and pedagogical text.

This review is from: Molecular Hydrodynamics (Paperback)
I would highly recommend this book to any researcher in the field. It has an enormous amount of material that you simply cannot find anywhere else. The book is well written and makes a nice connection with experiment and numerical simulations.
