Governing the Atom: The Politics of Risk
ISBN: 9781560008347 / Angielski / Miękka / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Promoted as a form of limitless, low-cost energy without the polluting effects of its fossil fuel counterparts, nuclear power has enjoyed unparalleled support in several countries. Despite the development of an extensive set of policy and institutional mechanisms to foster its use, nuclear technology has been troubled by a wide range of problems and continues to pose risks many believe are far greater than society should accept. The legacy of failure ranges from catastrophic accidents like that at Chernobyl to the declaration of bankruptcy by the Washington Public Power Supply System....

Neutrino Interactions with Electrons and Protons
ISBN: 9781563962288 / Angielski / Twarda / 149 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Market: Researchers and graduate students in high energy physics, physics historians. This book contains 13 papers that reflect the development of neutrino interactions with the electrons and protons in a fixed-target experiment that, beginning in 1980, grew out of the formal collaboration in high energy physics between Japanese and American institutions. These experiments were crucial to the merger of quantum electrodynamics and quantum weak dynamics, the foundation of electroweak theory today.

Nuclear Power and Social Power
ISBN: 9781566394864 / Angielski / Miękka / 191 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. We often think of 'progress' and 'economic growth' as natural developments that benefit various members of society. This title challenges this view and instead suggests that specific definitions of progress and economic growth can be molded by powerful individuals, organizations, and classes.

Nuclear Technology
ISBN: 9781573563369 / Angielski / Twarda / 656 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Although advanced technologies are the cornerstone of modern life, few people understand how such technologies as robotics or nuclear science actually work. Fewer still realize how--and how dramatically--technology influences our society and culture. "Nuclear Technology," the newest volume in the "Sourcebooks in Modern Technology" Series, is a reference guide that provides non-specialists with the most up-to-date information on seminal developments in nuclear technology, as well as covering the social, political, and technical impacts of those developments on everyday life, both now and in...

The Radiochemistry of Nuclear Power Plants with Light Water Reactors
ISBN: 9783110132427 / Angielski / Twarda / 737 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this text, radioactivity and the chemical reactions of radionuclons within the different areas of a nuclear power plant are discussed. The text concentrates on commercially-operated light water reactors which currently represent the greatest faction of the world's nuclear power capacity. In 1994, the total electricity production of such plants corresponded to approximately 17 per cent of the global production. Part A of the text is devoted to a short description of the design of different types of plants in current operation, focusing mainly on those aspects of the plants that are relevant...

Nuclear Fusion Research: Understanding Plasma-Surface Interactions
ISBN: 9783540230380 / Angielski / Twarda / 461 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It became clear in the early days of fusion research that the effects of the containment vessel (erosion of impurities) degrade the overall fusion plasma performance. Progress in controlled nuclear fusion research over the last decade has led to magnetically confined plasmas that, in turn, are sufficiently powerful to damage the vessel structures over its lifetime. This book reviews current understanding and concepts to deal with this remaining critical design issue for fusion reactors. It reviews both progress and open questions, largely in terms of available and sought-after plasma-surface...

High-Energy Particle Diffraction
ISBN: 9783540421078 / Angielski / Twarda / 410 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. High-energy diffraction has become a hot and fashionable subject in recent years due to the great interest triggered by the HERA and Tevatron data. These data have helped to show the field from a different perspective paving the road to a hopefully more complete understanding than hitherto achieved. The forthcoming data in the next few years from even higher energies (LHC) promise to sustain this interest for a long time. We believe that it is therefore necessary to summarize the main devel opments which have marked the growth of high-energy diffractive physics in recent decades, and to...

Power Plant Surveillance and Diagnostics: Applied Research with Artificial Intelligence
ISBN: 9783540432470 / Angielski / Twarda / 386 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In little more than a decade, the availability of nuclear power plants in the United States and most European and Pacific Rim countries has increased dramatically- from around 60% to about 90%. Such improvement is equivalent to adding approximately 30,000 MW e of new generating capacity in this period in the United States and perhaps an equal amount elsewhere. Some of this improvement has been due to longer fuel cycles-increases from 12 months to 18 or 24 months, but the major gains have been due to on-line maintenance and improved operation and planning by the utilities, accomplished...

Deep Inelastic Positron-Proton Scattering in the High-Momentum-Transfer Regime of Hera
ISBN: 9783540677086 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The book reviews recent developments in the field of deep inelastic electron-proton reactions at high momentum transfers. These studies have been made feasible by the high-statistics "ep" collision data collected by the experiments ZEUS and H1 at the HERA accelerator at DESY. The standard model framework for describing deep inelastic scattering and scenarios beyond the standard model, as well as the experimental situation, is discussed, and the experimental results are collected and confronted with the theoretical predictions.

Numerical Challenges in Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics: Joint Interdisciplinary Workshop of John Von Neumann Institute for Computing, Jülich, and Inst
ISBN: 9783540677321 / Angielski / Miękka / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Lattice gauge theory is a fairly young research area in Theoretical Particle Physics. It is of great promise as it offers the framework for an ab-initio treatment of the nonperturbative features of strong interactions. Ever since its adolescence the simulation of quantum chromodynamics has attracted the interest of numerical analysts and there is growing interdisciplinary engage ment between theoretical physicists and applied mathematicians to meet the grand challenges of this approach. This volume contains contributions of the interdisciplinary workshop "Nu merical Challenges in Lattice...

Fuzzy Systems and Soft Computing in Nuclear Engineering
ISBN: 9783790812510 / Angielski / Twarda / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Fuzzy systems and soft computing are new computing techniques that are tolerant to imprecision, uncertainty and partial truths. Applications of these techniques in nuclear engineering present a tremendous challenge due to its strict nuclear safety regulation. The fields of nuclear engineering, fuzzy systems and soft computing have nevertheless matured considerably during the last decade. This book presents new application potentials for Fuzzy Systems and Soft Computing in Nuclear Engineering. The root of this book can be traced back to the series of the first, second and third international...
