Introduction—Atomic and Electron Fluids

Abstract

This volume contains the lectures given at the fourth international Gordon Godfrey workshop held at the University of New South Wales in Sydney from 26 to 28 September 1994. This time our lecturers came from Germany, Italy, Japan, the United States and Vietnam, as well as of course from Australia. There was a total of seventeen lectures. The workshops are jointly organised by the School of Physics at the University of New South Wales and the Department of Theoretical Physics, Research School of Physical Sciences at the Australian National University and are held annually at the University of New South Wales in Sydney. Each workshop concentrates on a different and novel research area of current interest in condensed matter physics. The late Gordon Godfrey was an Associate Professor of Physics at the University of New South Wales who bequeathed his estate for the promotion and the teaching of theoretical physics within the university.
