Physics of Life: The Physicist's Road to Biology
ISBN: 9780444527981 / Angielski / Twarda / 436 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The purpose of the book is to give a survey of the physics that is relevant for biological applications, and also to discuss what kind of biology needs physics. The book gives a broad account of basic physics, relevant for the applications and various applications from properties of proteins to processes in the cell to wider themes such as the brain, the origin of life and evolution. It also considers general questions of common interest such as reductionism, determinism and randomness, where the physics view often is misunderstood. The subtle balance between order and disorder is a repeated...

Chemical Bonding at Surfaces and Interfaces
ISBN: 9780444528377 / Angielski / Twarda / 520 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Molecular surface science has made enormous progress in the past 30 years. The development can be characterized by a revolution in fundamental knowledge obtained from simple model systems and by an explosion in the number of experimental techniques. The last 10 years has seen an equally rapid development of quantum mechanical modeling of surface processes using Density Functional Theory (DFT). Chemical Bonding at Surfaces and Interfaces focuses on phenomena and concepts rather than on experimental or theoretical techniques. The aim is to provide the common basis for...

ISBN: 9780444826183 / Angielski / Twarda / 600 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Making Sense of Inner Sense
'Terra cognita' is terra incognita. It is difficult to find someone not taken abackand fascinated by the incomprehensible but indisputable fact: there are material systems which are aware of themselves. Consciousness is self-cognizing code. During homo sapiens's relentness and often frustrated search for self-understanding various theories of consciousness have been and continue to be proposed. However, it remains unclear whether and at what level the problems of consciousness and intelligent thought can be resolved. Science's greatest... Making Sense of Inner Sense

Conformational Analysis of Molecules in Excited States
ISBN: 9780471297079 / Angielski / Twarda / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since 1990, advances in laser spectroscopy have made it possible to selectively excite and follow the fate of a single molecule with ultrafast resolution. This has made it possible to monitor the elementary processes that occur directly after absorption of a photon. This volume focuses on the conformational changes in organic molecules that result from absorption of a photon. These include those accompanying intramolecular excited state electron transfer, intra- and intramolecular excited state proton transfer, photoisomer formation, exciplex formation and control of photoproduct formation.

X-Rays from Laser Plasmas: Generation and Applications
ISBN: 9780471983972 / Angielski / Twarda / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Traditional X-ray sources are only efficient at generating hard X-rays, such as those applied in radiography, crystallography, and chemical analysis. The potential applications of soft X-rays have long been realized, but until recently these X-rays have only been generated via a type of particle accelerator called a synchrotron. While very efficient, synchrotrons are neither compact or user-friendly. An alternative to the synchrotron for producing soft X-rays is the laser-plasma source. The development of efficient laser plasma sources constitutes a leap forward in the field, and could open...
