About this book series
Aims and Scope
The series "Springer Theses" brings together a selection of the very best Ph.D. theses from around the world and across the physical sciences. Each volume has been selected for its scientific excellence by an internationally renowned institute or department. For greater accessibility to non-specialists, the published versions include an extended introduction, as well as a foreword by the student's supervisor explaining the special relevance of the work for the field. The series as a whole provides a valuable resource both for newcomers to the research fields, and for other scientists seeking detailed background information on special questions. Finally, it serves as an accredited documentation of the valuable contributions made by today's younger generation of scientists.
How to Apply
Theses prepared at internationally leading universities and institutes may be nominated for publication by supervisors with the endorsement of the head of department. Each such department is entitled to nominate one thesis per year. Enquiries and requests for a nomination form should be sent, together with the thesis, to Ms. Nathalie Berg (see link on right).
Eligibility Criteria
To qualify for consideration, theses should fulfil the following criteria:
- They must be written in good English.
- The topic should fall within the confines of Chemistry, Physics, Earth Sciences, Engineering and related interdisciplinary fields such as Materials, Nanoscience, Chemical Engineering, Complex Systems and Biophysics.
- The work reported in the thesis must represent a significant scientific advance.
- A maximum of 30% of the text may be a verbatim reproduction from the author's previous publications.
- They must have been examined and passed during the 12 months prior to nomination.
- The theses should have a clearly defined structure including an introduction accessible to new PhD students and scientists not expert in the relevant field.
- After acceptance, theses should be supplemented by a "Supervisor's Foreword" outlining the wider scientific relevance of the work
