Information About

The present volume contains the proceedings of the Workshop, where experts on the early universe, the quark-hadron and the electroweak phase transitions explained the role of first order transitions in particle physics and presented the concepts they have developed to study these transitions. Experts on first order transitions in condensed matter physics reviewed classical and modern theories on equilibrium properties and phase separation dynamics. Lively discussions arose about the definition and measurements of interfaces.
