The Dislocation-Particle Analogy and Plasma-Crystal Models

ISBN: 9783035714715 出版年：2018 页码：126 Trans Tech Publications Ltd

The present monograph focuses on the very fruitful method of equating particle-physics phenomena - where the speed of light is a key factor – to dislocation-motion in solids – where the speed of sound plays an analogous role. The so-called ‘dusty plasma’ has proved to be a very useful substitute and its use confirms that the particle/dislocation analogy is well-founded.
