Analysis of Excitation and Ionization of Atoms and Molecules by Electron Impact (Repost)

Analysis of Excitation and Ionization of Atoms and Molecules by Electron Impact by Afzal Chaudhry , Hans Kleinpoppen
English | PDF (True) | 2010 | 236 Pages | ISBN : 1441969462 | 4.5 MB

The content of this book describes in detail the results of the present measurements of the partial and total doubly differential cross sections for the multiple-ionization of rare gas atoms by electron impact. These measurements show, beside other trends, the role of Auger transitions in the production of multiply ionized atoms in the region where the incident electron energy is sufficient to produce inner shell ionization. Other processes like Coster-Kronig transitions and shake off also contribute towards increasing the charge of the ions. The incident electron having energy of 6 keV, for example, in a collision with xenon atom can remove up to nine electrons! (*) X-ray-ion coincidence spectroscopy of the electron xenon atom collisions is also described.

Avalanches in Functional Materials and Geophysics (Repost)

Avalanches in Functional Materials and Geophysics by Ekhard K.H. Salje, Avadh Saxena, Antoni Planes
English | PDF (True) | 2017 | 310 Pages | ISBN : 3319456105 | 19.4 MB

This book provides the state-of-the art of the present understanding of avalanche phenomena in both functional materials and geophysics. The main emphasis of the book is analyzing these apparently different problems within the common perspective of out-of-equilibrium phenomena displaying spatial and temporal complexity that occur in a broad range of scales. Many systems, when subjected to an external force, respond intermittently in the form of avalanches that often span over a wide range of sizes, energies and durations. This is often related to a class of critical behavior characterized by the absence of characteristic scales. Typical examples are magnetization processes, plastic deformation and failure occuring in functional materials. These phenomena share many similarities with seismicity arising from the earth crust failure due to stresses that originate from plate tectonics.

Fundamentals of Physics and Chemistry of the Atmosphere

Fundamentals of Physics and Chemistry of the Atmosphere by Guido Visconti
English | PDF | 2001 | 591 Pages | ISBN : 3540674209 | 46.5 MB

This book originates from the translation of an Italian textbook on the physics and chemistry of the atmosphere. The idea for this earlier effort came to me after I published, in 1989, "L' Atmosfera", a popular science book. A few years later I discovered, to my great surprise, that it was adopted as a textbook by a few univer­ sities or university courses. The publication of the book coincided with the intro­ duction in Italy of a university curriculum on Environmental Science and a partial reform of the physics curriculum that allows the teaching of courses like Atmos­ pheric Physics, Meteorology and Environmental Physics.

Plasma Turbulence in the Solar System

Plasma Turbulence in the Solar System by Yasuhito Narita
English | PDF | 2012 | 108 Pages | ISBN : 364225666X | 2.7 MB

Dynamics of astrophysical systems is often described by plasma physics, yet understanding the nature of plasma turbulence remains as a challenge in physics in both theories and experiments. This book is an up-to-date summary and review of recent results in research on waves and turbulence in near-Earth space plasma turbulence, obtained by Cluster, the multi-spacecraft mission. Spatial and temporal structures of solar wind turbulence as well as its interaction with the bow shock ahead of the Earth are presented using Cluster data. The book presents (1) historical developments, (2) theoretical background of plasma physics, turbulence theories, and the plasma physical picture of the solar system, (3) analysis methods for multi-spacecraft data, (4) results of Cluster data analysis, and (5) impacts on astrophysics and Earth sciences.

Quantitative Remote Sensing in Thermal Infrared: Theory and Applications (Repost)

Quantitative Remote Sensing in Thermal Infrared: Theory and Applications by Huajun Tang, Zhao-Liang Li
English | PDF | 2014 | 298 Pages | ISBN : 3642420265 | 7.1 MB

This book provides a comprehensive and advanced overview of the basic theory of thermal remote sensing and its application in hydrology, agriculture, and forestry. Specifically, the book highlights the main theory, assumptions, advantages, drawbacks, and perspectives of these methods for the retrieval and validation of surface temperature/emissivity and evapotranspiration from thermal infrared remote sensing. It will be an especially valuable resource for students, researchers, experts, and decision-makers whose interest focuses on the retrieval and validation of surface temperature/emissivity, the estimation and validation of evapotranspiration at satellite pixel scale, and the application of thermal remote sensing.

Numerical Modeling of Sea Waves

Numerical Modeling of Sea Waves by Dmitry V. Chalikov
English | PDF(True) | 2016 | 340 Pages | ISBN : 3319329146 | 10.2 MB

Presenting a novel approach to wave theory, this book applies mathematical modeling to the investigation of sea waves. It presents problems, solutions and methods, and explores issues such as statistical properties of sea waves, generation of turbulence, Benjamin-Feir instability and the development of wave fields under the action of wind. Special attention is paid to the processes of dynamic wind-wave interaction, the formation of freak waves, as well as the role that sea waves play in the dynamic ocean/atmosphere system.
