Computer simulation studies in condensed-matter physics XX: Proceedings of the Twentieth Workshop Athens, GA, USA, February 19--23, 2007

This volume represents a ‘status report’ emanating from presentations made during the 20th Annual Workshop on Computer Simulations Studies in Condensed Matter Physics. It provides a broad overview of the most recent advances in the field, spanning the range from statistical physics to soft condensed matter andbiological systems. Results on nanostructures and materials are included as are several descriptions of advances in quantum simulations and quantum computing as well as.methodological advances.
