This book provides a self-contained presentation of optical methods used to measure the structure and dynamics of complex fluids subject to the influence of external fields.

This early work by Alfred Russel Wallace was originally published in 1907 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography.

In this book the interaction of radiation and matter, and the principles of laser operation are treated at a level suitable for fourth-year undergraduate courses or introductory graduate courses in physics, chemistry or engineering.

The scanning tunnelling microscope (STM) was invented by Binnig and Rohrer and received a Nobel Prize of Physics in 1986.

In an era when knowledge can travel with astonishing speed, the need for analysis of intellectual property (IP) law-and its focus on patents, trade secrets, trademarks, and issues of copyright-has never been greater.

Ballistics examines the analytical and computational tools for predicting a weapon's behavior in terms of pressure, stress, and velocity, demonstrating their applications in ammunition and weapons design.

This book tells the human story of one of man's greatest intellectual adventures - how it came to be understood that light travels at a finite speed, so that when we look up at the stars, we are looking back in time.

This textbook reduces the complexity of the coverage of optics to allow a student with only elementary calculus to learn the principles of optics and the modern Fourier theory of diffraction and imaging.

MRI has emerged as a powerful way of studying in-vivo brain structure and function in both healthy and disease states.

Most previous texts on quantum optics have been written primarily for the graduate student market at PhD level and above.

This book is on inertial confinement fusion, an alternative way to produce electrical power from hydrogen fuel by using powerful lasers or particle beams.

Analytical measurements at the single molecule level under ambient conditions have become almost routine in the past few years.

Rather different problems can be lumped together under the general term 'laser control of atoms and molecules'.

The counter-intuitive aspects of quantum physics have been long illustrated by thought experiments, from Einstein's photon box to Schrodinger's cat.

This book is primarily intended to accompany an advanced undergraduate course in atomic physics.

Holography exploded on the scientific world in 1964, but its slow fuse had been burning much longer.

This book presents a comprehensive overview of the role space is playing in unlocking Latin America's developmental aspirations.

This book addresses methods used in the synthesis of light alloys and composites for industrial applications.

This new fourth edition of the standard text on atomic-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) retains previous material on the fundamentals of electron optics and aberration correction, linear imaging theory (including wave aberrations to fifth order) with partial coherence, and multiple-scattering theory.

This book gathers the outcomes of the second ECCOMAS CM3 Conference series on transport, which addressed the main challenges and opportunities that computation and big data represent for transport and mobility in the automotive, logistics, aeronautics and marine-maritime fields.

Microcavities are semiconductor, metal, or dielectric structures providing optical confinement in one, two or three dimensions.

Quantum Optics and Nanophotonics consists of the lecture notes of the Les Houches Summer School 101 held in August 2013.
