Professor Yoseph (Joe) Imry, an early initiator of
mesoscopic physics, has been among the leaders in this field for
several decades. This book contains articles by leading (theoretical
and experimental) scientists working in nanoscience and in related
fields. Most of the contributions, consisting both reviews of the state
of the art and new results, summarize invited talks given at two
conferences held in honor of Imry's 70th birthday: the 101st
Statistical Mechanics Conference (Rutgers University, May 10-12, 2009),
and Perspectives of Mesoscopic Physics (Weizmann Institute of Science,
May 31-June 1, 2009). This book covers a broad range of active research
in nanoscience, including topics like quantum interference,
decoherence, electron correlations, nano superconductors and nano
magnets, nonequilibrium and glassy behavior.
