  • Computational Colour Science using MATLABby Stephen Westland; Caterina Ripamonti

    John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 2004; US$ 140.00

    Presenting a practical, problem-based approach to colour physics, this title describes the key issues encountered in modern colour engineering, including efficient representation of colour information, fourier analysis of reflectance spectra and advanced colorimetric computation. Emphasis is placed on the practical applications rather than the techniques themselves, with material structured around key topics, such as colour calibration of visual displays, computer recipe prediction and models for colour-appearance prediction. Each topic is carefully introduced at three levels to enhance student understanding. Firstly, theoretical ideas and background information are discussed, explanations of mathematical solutions then follow and... more...

  • Vavilov-Cherenkov and Synchrotron Radiationby G.N. Afanasiev

    Springer 2004; US$ 309.00

    The theory of the Vavilov-Cherenkov radiation observed by Cherenkov in 1934 was created by Tamm, Frank and Ginsburg who associated the observed blue light with the uniform charge motion of a charge at the velocity greater than the velocity of light velocity in the medium. On the other hand, Vavilov, Cherenkov's teacher, attributed the observed blue light with the deceleration of electrons. This has given rise to the appearance of papers in which the radiation of a charge uniformly moving in a finite space interval was related to the bremsstrahlung arising at the end points of the motion interval. This monograph is intended for students of the third year and higher, for postgraduates, for professional scientists (both experimentalists and theoreticians)... more...

  • Colorimetryby Noboru Ohta; Alan Robertson

    John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 2006; US$ 135.00

    Colorimetry, the science of quantitvely describing color, is essential for color reproduction technology. This is because it creates standards by which to measure color, using mathematical techniques and software to ensure fidelity across media, allow accurate color mixing, and to develop color optimization. This book is a comprehensive and thorough introduction to colorimetry, taking the reader from basic concepts through to a variety of industrial applications. Set out in clear, easy-to-follow terminology, Ohta and Robertson explain fundamental principles such as color specification, the CIE (International Commission on Illumination) system, and color vision and appearance models. They also cover the following topics: the optimization of... more...

  • A History of Light and Colour Measurementby Sean F. Johnston

    CRC Press 2001; US$ 89.95

    Judging the brightness and colour of light has long been contentious. This is a history of the hidden workings of physical science - a technical endeavour embedded in a social context. It argues that this "undisciplined" subject may be typical not only of 20th-century science, but of its future. more...

  • Annual Reports on NMR Spectroscopyby Graham A. Webb

    Elsevier 2005; US$ 231.00

    Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is an analytical tool used by chemists and physicists to study the structure and dynamics of molecules. In recent years, no other technique has grown to such importance as NMR spectroscopy. It is used in all branches of science where precise structural determination is required and where the nature of interactions and reactions in solution is being studied. Annual Reports on NMR has established itself as a premier means for the specialist and nonspecialist alike to become familiar with new techniques and applications of NMR spectroscopy. * Includes comprehensive review articles on NMR Spectroscopy * NMR is used in all branches of science * No other technique has grown to such importance as NMR Spectroscopy... more...
