This bookis intended to be of assistance to the physicist or engineer concerned with designing and building electron devices such as high-vacuum transmitter- or amplifier tubes, gas- or vapor-filled rectifiers, thyratrons, X-ray or luminescent tubes, glow or incandescent lamps, Geiger- or ionization counters, vacuum photo- cells, photoconductive cells, selenium-, germanium- or silicon rectifiers or trans- istors.
The classical mechanistic idea of nature that prevailed in science during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries was an essentially mindless conception: the physically described aspects of nature were asserted to be completely determined by prior physically described aspects alone, with our conscious experiences entering only passively.
Assimilating new research in the field of low-dimensional metals, this monograph provides a detailed overview of the current status of research on quasi-one- and two-dimensional molecular metals, describing normal-state properties, magnetic field effects, superconductivity, and the phenomena of interacting p and d electrons.
Inspired by the general configuration characteristics of automatic production lines, the author discusses the modelisation of important sectors of a factory.
Professor Hunsperger's Integrated Optics is one of the few texts that is comprehensive and thorough enough for use both as a classroom text (practice problems are included) and as a specialist's reference.
In Dye Lasers: 25 years, the pioneers and leading experts inthe field of dye lasers present the current status andbright future perspectives of dye lasers and theirapplications in physics and chemistry.
The optically pumped laser has made an enormous contribution to research in the part of the electromagnetic spectrum known as the far infrared, or submillimetre region.
Most of the texts available on lasers deal with laser engineering and laser applications, only a few of them treating theoretical aspects of the laser at an advanced level.
Optical Solitons represent one of the most exciting and fascinating concepts in modern communications, arousing special interest due to their potential applications in optical fibre communication.
Based on the method of canonical transformation of variables and the classical perturbation theory, this innovative book treats the systematic theory of symplectic mappings for Hamiltonian systems and its application to the study of the dynamics and chaos of various physical problems described by Hamiltonian systems.
Die Verdichtung von Böden durch Rütteln geht auf Beobachtungen zurück, die HERTWIG [14] vor etwa drei Jahrzehnten anläßlich dynamischer Baugrundunter suchungen bei der Deutschen Forschungsgesellschaft für Bodenmechanik (Degebo) machte.
Es ist für mich eine besonders gern erfüllte Verpfiichtung, allen denen zu danken, die mir bei der Durchführung des Forschungsvorhabens geholfen und zu seinem erfolg reichen Abschluß beigetragen haben.
