The new edition of this seminal work highlights the development of fiber optic sensors, while providing an overview of...

The field of Adaptive Optics (AO) for astronomy has matured in recent years, and diffraction-limited image resolution in the near-infrared is now routinely achieved by ground-based 8 to 10m class telescopes. This book presents the proceedings of the ESO Workshop on Science with Adaptive Optics held in the fall of 2003. The book provides an overview on AO instrumentation, data acquisition and reduction strategies, and covers observations of the sun, solar system objects, circumstellar disks, substellar companions, HII regions, starburst environments, late-type stars, the galactic center,...

From the reviews: "Takes the reader on a journey that covers all the basic science and engineering related to the topic of developing a solid-state laser for common materials processing problems. ...] Entrants to the field will certainly find it a book to keep for future reference."

This practice-oriented textbook shows how to utilize the huge variety of NMR experiments available today in addition to standard experiments. Intended as a practical guide for students and laboratory personnel, it treats theoretical aspects only to the extent necessary to understand the experiments and to interpret the results.

The book is significantly revised and expanded for the 2nd edition, and now includes the nuclei ¹H/²H, ¹³C, ³¹P, ¹⁷O, ¹⁵N, ¹⁹F, ²⁹Si, ⁷⁷Se, ¹¹³Cd,...

Square-wave voltammetry is a technique readily available to every researcher, scientist, engineer and practitioner applying modern electrochemical measurement systems. It is of beneficial use in analytical applications and in fundamental studies of electrode mechanisms. But the optimised exploitation of this technique is only possible for those with a detailed knowledge of signal generation and of the thermodynamics and kinetics involved. This volume, written by three distinguished experts, systematically delivers the complete and in-depth information that enables both researchers and...

Nanotechnology has reached a level where almost every new development and even every new product uses features of nanoscopic properties of materials. As a consequence, an enormous amount of scientific instruments is used in order to synthesize and analyze new structures and materials. Due to the surface sensitivity of such materials, many of these instruments require ultrahigh vacuum that has to be provided under extreme conditions like very high voltages.

In this book, Yoshimura provides a review of the UHV related development during the last decades. His very broad experience in...

Das Wagelexikon ist ein umfassendes Nachschlagewerk der Wagepraxis fur alle Nutzer von Waagen in Industrie und Wissenschaft. Es erlautert uber 1000 Begriffe aus der Wagetechnik und verwandten Gebieten; zahlreiche Abbildungen tragen zum besseren Verstandnis bei. Entstanden ist das Lexikon als Gemeinschaftswerk der Physikalisch-Technischen Bundesanstalt (PTB) und des Waagenherstellers METTLER TOLEDO.

L introduzione delle lauree triennali ha in molti casi costretto i docenti a ridurre drasticamente il numero di ore di insegnamento e quindi l estensione dei programmi dei corsi di Fisica.

In questo volumetto l'autore si e proposto di esporre sinteticamente ma con il massimo rigore possibile il corso di Fisica Generale I evitando le dimostrazioni delle leggi fisiche, ma dando la priorita alle applicazioni di tali leggi e allo svolgimento di esercizi che in genere viene trascurato in molti corsi.

I problemi proposti sono interamente svolti e commentati criticamente sottolineando i...

This is quite simply the first volume of its kind dedicated to the area of high time resolution astrophysics. High time resolution astrophysics (HTRA) is an important new window on the universe and a vital tool in understanding a range of phenomena from diverse objects and radiative processes. Underlining this science foundation, technological developments in both instrumentation and detectors are described.
