{"product_id":"9781681740454","title":"An Introduction to Quantum Monte Carlo Methods","description":"Monte Carlo methods have been very prominent in computer simulation of various systems in physics, chemistry, biology, and materials science. This book focuses on the discussion and path-integral quantum Monte Carlo methods in many-body physics and provides a concise but complete introduction to the Metropolis algorithm and its applications in these two techniques. To explore the schemes in clarity, several quantum many-body systems are analysed and studied in detail. The book includes exercises to help digest the materials covered. It can be used as a tutorial to learn the discussion and path-integral Monte Carlo or a recipe for developing new research in the reader's own area. Two complete Java programs, one for the discussion Monte Carlo of 4^He clusters on a graphite surface and the other for the path-integral Monte Carlo of cold atoms in a potential trap, are ready for download and adoption.","brand":"Morgan \u0026 Claypool Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47042567962864,"sku":"9781681740454","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781681740454_p0.jpg?v=1763694002","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781681740454","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
