Hans Christian Orsted (1777-1851) was one of the leading scientists of the nineteenth century, having played a crucial role in founding electromagnetism. Unfortunately for the English-speaking world, almost all of his research was published in other languages, particularly his native Danish. This book will help to elevate Orsted to his rightful place in the history of science by finally making his most important scientific works available in English.

The book includes, for example, Orsted's account of his revolutionary experiments in electromagnetism. In 1820, he discovered that a...

• Presents recent developments and application of fluorescent protein-labelling techniques and two-photon molecular probes.
• Introduces the theoretical and experimental　researches of super-resolution localization microscopy, photoacoustic molecular (functional) imaging, and　optical molecular tomography for small animal in vivo.
• Illustrates optical labeling techniques and imaging instruments and their application in biological studies.
• Suits well for researchers and graduates in biomolecular photonics fields.

The author outlines the main quantities to monitor in power converters (current, voltage and temperature) and the sensor technologies that are currently available in the market, with often experienced practical measurement problems and analog circuits allowing you to overcome these issues....

Although elemental semiconductors such as silicon and germanium are standard for energy dispersive spectroscopy in the laboratory, their use for an increasing range of applications is becoming marginalized by their physical limitations, namely the need for ancillary cooling, their modest stopping powers, and radiation intolerance. Compound semiconductors, on the other hand, encompass such a wide range of physical and electronic properties that they have become viable competitors in a number of applications. Compound Semiconductor Radiation Detectors is a consolidated...

This technical book describes a unified theory of Gravitation, ElectroMagnetism and the Strong interactions (GEMS). This theory provides explicit color confinement, and provides a formulation of gravity that modifies gravity on the galactic scale with results similar to MoND - Modified Newtonian Gravity but without the sacrifice of conventional principles of mechanics or quantum theory. With the introduction of ElectroMagnetism we find a new mechanism for gluon-photon interactions that may solve the long-standing 'missing proton spin' puzzle. The combined theory is consistent with our...

Your electronic devices swarm with it; the sun bathes you in it. It's zooming at you from cell towers, microwave ovens, CT scans, mammogram machines, nuclear power plants, deep space, even the walls of your basement. You cannot see, hear, smell or feel it, but there is never a single second when it is not flying through your body. Too much of it will kill you, but without it you wouldn't live a year.

From beloved popular science writer Bob Berman, ZAPPED tells the story of all the light we cannot see, tracing...

Is God an intelligent spirit who cares for and about his creation? Or is God merely a mechanical construct which indifferently operates the universe based on mathematical formulae? Can both be true? Paradox is a common feature to both spirituality and quantum physics. Maybe God is a paradox. Is the belief held by many that this world is illusory the same illusory world as described by quantum physics? Using quantum physics as a lens of reason, spirituality and cosmology will be examined on their scientific merits and be described in popular style. No fancy equations used. Unlike many other...
