Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Ultrasound-mediated imaging in scattering media has deeper roots than hitherto imagined, roots in condensed matter physics. Vasu and Roy discuss this in order to establish a firm connection between measurement and a host of parameters in the medium, mechanical and optical. These connections are verified through the recovery of parameters using simulations and experiments. Explaining their research, inter alia, the authors explore problems such as noise-assisted small-signal amplification, stochastic search schemes for optimization and anisotropic particle diffusion. For graduates and researchers in the field, this book will highlight key features of the developing science and will enable practitioners to adopt the simulation algorithms and experimental modalities presented.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - In 1947, it was discovered that multiple scattering theory (MST) can be used to solve the Schröedinger equation for the stationary states of electrons in a solid. Written by experts in the field, J S Faulkner, G Malcolm Stocks and Yang Wang, this book collates the results of numerous studies in the field of MST and provides a comprehensive, systematic approach to it. For many scientists, students and engineers working with multiple scattering programmes, this will be a useful guide to help expand the existing knowledge of MST as well as understanding its future implications.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - This is the third volume in a three-part series that uses art photography as a point of departure for learning about physics, while also using physics to ask fundamental questions about the nature of photography as an art. This volume focuses on the physics and chemistry of photographic light-sensitive materials, as well as the human retina. It also considers the rudimentary nature of digital photography and its relationship to the analog photography that preceded it.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Modern Interferometry for Length Metrology: Exploring limits and novel techniques gives an overview of refined traditional methods and novel techniques in the field of length and distance metrology. The representation of a length according to the definition of the meter in the International System of Units (SI) requires a measurement principle that establishes a relation between the travelling time of light in vacuum and the length to be measured. This comprehensive book covers the basic concepts of length metrology, sophisticated methods to reach smallest measurement uncertainties in length measurements and innovative interferometer concepts. Aimed at students, researchers and practitioners in the field, this book will provide a far-reaching audience with key data, enabling them to better apply and understand interferometry and length metrology.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - As the most powerful explosions that occurs in the universe, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are one of the most exciting objects being studied in astrophysics. Creating more energy than the Sun does in its entire lifetime, GRBs create a blaze of light that will outshine every other object visible in the sky, enabling us to measure galaxies that are several million years old. GRBs cover various areas of astronomy and interest in them reaches a wide range of fields. Andrew Levan explores the fascinating history of these astronomical occurrences and details our current understanding of GRBs. The science behind them is rapidly moving and this book examines the knowledge that we now have as well as the questions that are continually being raised. Predominantly aimed at PhD students and researchers in the area, Gamma-Ray Bursts addresses this captivating topic and outlines the principles and initial applications of a fascinating astronomical phenomena.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The fascinating and observationally spectacular world of binary stars is a vast and beautiful one that is a significant aspect of many astrophysical studies. Modeling and Analysis of Eclipsing Binary Stars gives a comprehensive analysis and description of the science behind eclipsing binaries. It also explores the assumptions and the difficulties that can occur when using the modeling principles of the classical codes as well as introducing PHOEBE (the PHysics Of Eclipsing BinariEs) - a modern suite for modeling binary stars. PHOEBE was conceived by Andrej Prsa and his collaborators, and has become one of the standard tools in the eclipsing binary field. This book provides a constructive and intriguing contribution to the expansion of the modeling approaches of binaries and our subsequent understanding of the processes that govern stellar evolution. Aimed at a wide audience, Prsa provides new astronomers with the knowledge and background of eclipsing binary stars as well as facilitating researchers a better understanding of the intricate details behind eclipsing binary models.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Differential geometry has encountered numerous applications in physics. More and more physical concepts considered as fundamental can be understood as a direct consequence of geometric principles. The mathematical structure of Maxwell's electrodynamics, general theory of relativity, string theory and gauge theories, to name but a few, are of a geometric nature. All of these disciplines require a curved space for the description of a system, and we require a mathematical formalism that can handle the dynamics in such spaces if we wish to go beyond a simple and superficial discussion of physical relationships. This formalism is differential geometry. Even areas like thermodynamics and fluid mechanics greatly benefit from a differential geometric treatment. Not only in physics, but in important branches of mathematics, has differential geometry effected important changes. Aimed at graduate students, and requiring only linear algebra and differential and integral calculus, this book presents, in a concise and direct manner, the appropriate mathematical formalism and fundamentals of differential topology and differential geometry, together with essential applications in many branches of physics.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Computational astrophysics is a new and quickly-growing discipline. This book outlines the fundamentals for computational astrophysics, focusing on the use of the Astronomical Multipurpose Software Environment (AMUSE), which is a general-purpose simulation environment in astrophysics written in Python. AMUSE allows you to combine existing solvers to build new applications that can be combined again to study gradually more complex situations. This enables the growth of multi-physics and multi-scale application software in a hierarchical fashion, testing each intermediate step, as the complexity of the software continues to increase. All examples in the book are associated with codes that run on a simple laptop or workstation. All figures are reproducible with a simple script and all scripts are available online to be downloaded and run accordingly.…
