The first evidence on the adverse effects of organic pollutants on Arctic ecosystems was provided by international research initiatives more than 30 years ago.
"e;Novel Colloidal Forming of Ceramics"e; discusses several new near-net-shape techniques for fabricating highly reliable, high-performance ceramic parts.
The term "e; nite Fermi systems"e; usually refers to systems where the fermionic nature of the constituents is of dominating importance but the nite spatial extent also cannot be ignored.
Persistent organic contaminants, which are bioaccumulative and toxic are a concern for the ecosystems and human health and are regulated under international law (global and regional conventions, besides other).
The latest authors, like the most ancient, strove to subordinate the phenomena of nature to the laws of mathematics Isaac Newton, 1647-1727 The approach quoted above has been adopted and practiced by many teachers of chemistry.
Mohamed Medhat Gaber "e;It is not my aim to surprise or shock you - but the simplest way I can summarise is to say that there are now in the world machines that think, that learn and that create.
Microdosimetry and Its Applications is an advanced textbook presenting the fundamental concepts and numerical aspects of the absorption of energy by matter exposed to ionizing radiation.
"e;Physical Chemistry in Depth"e; is not a stand-alone text, but complements the text of any standard textbook on "e;Physical Chemistry"e; into depth having in mind to provide profound understanding of some of the topics presented in these textbooks.
Scope of the Book Synthetic and natural polymers exhibit a complex structural and morphological hierarchy on multiple length scales [1], which determines their performance.
This second edition of Plant Drug Analysis includes more than 200 updated color photographs of superb quality demonstrating chromatograms of all relevant standard drugs.
Scanning Tunneling Microscopy II, like its predecessor, presents detailed and comprehensive accounts of the basic principles and the broad range of applications of STM and related scanning probe techniques.
Plasma Spectroscopy systematically develops the foundations of spectroscopy for plasmas subjected to quasi-monochromatic electric fields in the microwave or visible range.
Applications of X-ray scattering to soft matter have advanced considerably within recent years, both conceptually and technically - mature high-power X-ray sources, synchrotrons and rotating anodes, as well as high-speed detectors have become readily available.
The liquid crystalline state may be identified as a distinct and unique state of matter which is characterised by properties which resembles those of both solids and liquids.
The aesthetically pleasing molecular architectures of fullerenes and nanotubes are appealing not only because of their beauty but also because they are responsible for the many unprecedented chemical and physical properties of this compound class.
On the level of a textbook a self-consistent approach to liquid separations with membranes is presented, contrasting equilibrium separations with the rate-controlling effects of barrier interference on mass transfer.
