Reseña del editor

This volume is the proceedings of the Hiroshima Symposium on Elementary Excitations in Quantum Fluids, which was held on August 17 and 18, 1987, in Hiroshima, Japan, and was attended by thirty-two scientists from seven countries. Quantum fluids have been the subject of intense study as a consequence of their superfluid properties at very low temperatures. Elementary excitations in them are an important concept about which many important discoveries have been made in recent years. This symposium was arranged by a group of physicists from Hiroshima University to provide an opportunity to discuss these recent developments. It was conceived as a satellite conference of the 18th International Conference on Low Temperature Physics (LT 18), which was held in Kyoto, August 20-26, 1987. Emphasis was placed on the dynamic structures and correlations of ele­ mentary excitations, which resulted in invited speakers being selected from this field. However, enthusiastic contributors reported notable new results on various other aspects of the elementary excitations, which made the sympo­ sium lively and successful. It is our great satisfaction to present this volume, which includes papers of good quality and originality. We thank all the parti­ cipants for their cooperation throughout this symposium, and for preparing their manuscripts within a reasonable time.

This book reviews recent developments in the study of elementary excitations in quantum fluids such as superfluid helium-4. New findings and considerable advances have been achieved in recent years in this area. The book covers such subjects as the theoretical derivation of the dispersion relation of the elementary excitations, neutron inelastic scattering and Raman scattering studies of the dispersion and interactions of the elementary excitations, excitations in helium films, ripplon excitations, vortex excitations, quantum evaporation and interactions of ultracold neutrons with elementary excitations.
