Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fascinating world of high vacua, a realm of extremely low pressure once considered a mere scientific curiosity. The author delves into the historical context of vacuum research, starting with Torricelli's discovery of the "Torricellian vacuum" and the invention…of the first mechanical air pump by Otto von Guericke. The book then traces the evolution of vacuum technology through the development of the incandescent light bulb and the groundbreaking work of physicists like J.J. Thomson, who first identified the electron. The book uses the kinetic theory of gases, a theoretical framework that explains gas behavior at the molecular level, to provide a clear understanding of the phenomena associated with high vacua. The author explores how this theory can be applied to calculate the velocities of gas molecules, their average free paths, and their collision frequency. The book also delves into the relationship between gas viscosity and pressure and the applications of this knowledge for understanding heat conductivity and diffusion. The author goes beyond the theoretical to discuss the practical implications of high vacua, including its use in the development of hot cathode X-ray tubes and other important technological innovations. The book explores methods for producing high vacua, including the use of various pumps and the process of "clean-up," which removes residual gases. The book offers a valuable resource for anyone interested in the scientific and technological advancements that have shaped our understanding of matter and energy, revealing the profound impact of high vacua on a wide range of scientific fields. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
