Presents a bird's-eye view of microwave tubes (MWTs) which continue to be important despite competitive incursions from solid-state devices (SSDs). The book offers a broad and introductory survey to encourage readers to explore the field of MWTs further in selected areas of relevance to their respective interests.

Presents the most recent advances of the application of the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) to complex flow phenomena of scientific and technical interest with particular focus on the multi-scale modelling of heterogeneous catalysis within nano-porous media and multiphase, multicomponent flows.

Describes gravity gradiometers, magnetic gradiometers, and electromagnetic (EM) gradiometers. This book provides readers with a comprehensive introduction, history, potential applications, and current developments in relation to some of the most advanced technologies in the 21st Century.

Today we know that there are four states of matter: solids, liquids, gasses and plasma. The plasma state is beyond the scope of this book. Although on the microscopic level all matter is made from atoms or molecules, everyday experience tells us that the three states have very different properties. The aim of this book is to examine some of these properties and the underlying physics.

The increasing availability of photoelectron imaging experiments, along with the increasing sophistication of experimental techniques, and the availability of computational resources for analysis and numerics, has allowed for significant developments in such photoelectron metrology. This volume discusses the fundamental concepts along with recent and emerging applications.

Takes readers on a five-stop journey through the physics and technology (and occasional bits of applications and history) of timekeeping. On the way, conceptual vistas and qualitative images abound, but since mathematics is spoken everywhere, the book visits equations, quantitative relations, and rigorous definitions are offered as well.
