Summary

All articles were peer reviewed. The aim of the Advanced Summer School in Physics 2006 was to offer a series of courses which could be attended by graduate and advanced undergraduate students. This book collects the material presented throughout the course. The courses covered several frontier topics on physics such as Rigged Hilbert spaces, neutrinos, nanostructures, complex networks, and colloidal systems.
