1 From Materials to Models and Back Dieter Vollhardt 28 th Edgar Lüscher Seminar, Klosters; February 8, 2017
2 From Materials to Models and Back - The Need for Models in Condensed Matter Physics - Outline: The art of modeling From materials to models and back: From models to materials Universality of models
3 The need for models Natural phenomena: often complicated (or even complex) What do we observe? How can we explain it? Can we predict new phenomena? Idealization, abstraction, reduction necessary Need models!
4 The need for models Natural phenomena: often complicated (or even complex) Models must be simple, yet sufficiently specific Micro-cosmos Macro-cosmos Construction of models: Somewhere between art and science
5 The art of modeling Weighing scale Every-day use Simple model for theoretical investigation (Archimedes)
6 The art of modeling Steam engines Every-day use blacinc.com Simple model Papin (1680) Extreme idealization
7 The art of modeling Earth s magnetic field 1269 Pierre PELERIN de Maricourt: spherical lodestone has poles 1600 William GILBERT of Colchester ( Father of magnetism ) De Magnete Spherical lodestone = model of the earth The earth is a magnet
8 The art of modeling Electromagnetism It seems to me that the test of Do we or do we not understand a particular point in physics? is, Can we make a mechanical model of it? (Lord Kelvin) J. C. Maxwell (1857): "I have been grinding at many things and lately during this letter at a vortical theory of magnetism & electricity which is very crude but has some merits." Maxwell s mechanical model of electromagnetism: Vortices in a molecular medium provided basis for the displacement current Maxwell equations: 1864
9 The art of modeling Electromagnetism It seems to me that the test of Do we or do we not understand a particular point in physics? is, Can we make a mechanical model of it? (Lord Kelvin) Mechanical model for the coupling between two electrical circuits Boltzmann (1891)
10 The art of modeling Properties of solids Example: Magnetite (Fe 3 O 4 ) Macroscopic view Explanation of the origin T-dependence of the magnetization M? Microscopic view: O(10 23 ) interacting electrons + ions Much more difficult to model
