Contains an account of numerical solutions of differential equations of elementary problems of Physics using Euler and 2nd order Runge-Kutta methods and Mathematica 6.0. The problems are motion under constant force, motion under Hooke's law force, and motion under a combination of Hooke's law force and a velocity dependent damping force.

Describes the physics of particle behaviour in the design, construction, and operation of light sources and colliders. Starting with an outline of the history, uses, and structure of electron storage rings, the book develops the foundations of beam dynamicss. The aim is to emphasize the physics behind key phenomena.

Guides students through some of the trickier areas of theoretical physics. The book moves beyond the initial courses in classical mechanics, special relativity, electromagnetism and quantum theory to more sophisticated views of these subjects and their interdependence. This approach reveals the elegance in each subject discussed.

Lissajous Figures are produced by combining two oscillations at right angles to each other. The figures, drawn by mechanical devices called Harmonographs, have scientific uses, but are also enjoyed for their own beauty. This book is intended for people who enjoy physics or art or both.

Provides a rigorous yet "physics-focused" introduction to mathematical logic that is geared towards natural science majors. The book presents a robust introduction to logic, focusing on the specific knowledge and skills that will unavoidably be needed in calculus topics and natural science topics in general.

Provides an historical description of past efforts in national missile defenses to understand the technical difficulties involved. The book also explains how national security concerns, the evolving international environment, and the complexities of US politics have affected the story.

Offers an insight into the physics of nuclear medicine by explaining the principles of radioactivity, how radionuclides are produced and administered as radiopharmaceuticals to the body and how radiation can be detected and used to produce images for diagnosis.

Provides an historical description of past efforts in national missile defenses to understand the technical difficulties involved. The book also explains how national security concerns, the evolving international environment, and the complexities of US politics have affected the story.

Presents the theory of electromagnetic pulses in a simple and physical way. All pulses discussed are exact solutions of the Maxwell equations, and have finite energy, momentum and angular momentum. The five chapters cover Fundamentals, Solutions of the Wave Equation, Electromagnetic Pulses, Angular Momentum, and Lorentz Transformations.
