Optical Interferometry, 2e
Elsevier Science 2003; US$ 105.95When the first edition of "Optical Interferometry" was published, interferometry was regarded as a rather esoteric method of making measurements, largely confined to the laboratory. Today, however, besides its use in several fields of research, it has applications in fields as diverse as measurement of length and velocity, sensors for rotation, acceleration,... more...
Atom Interferometry
Elsevier Science 1997; US$ 290.00The field of atom interferometry has expanded rapidly in recent years, and todays research laboratories are using atom interferometers both as inertial sensors and for precision measurements. Many researchers also use atom interferometry as a means of researching fundamental questions in quantum mechanics. Atom Interferometry contains contributions... more...
Vacuum Ultraviolet Spectroscopy
Elsevier Science 2000; US$ 190.00Techniques of Vacuum Ultraviolet Spectroscopy was first published in 1967. In the three decades since, the techniques associated with vacuum ultraviolet spectroscopy have been greatly expanded.

Optical Materials
Elsevier Science 1999; US$ 155.00This book presents, in a unified form, the underlying physical and structural processes that determine the optical behavior of materials. It does this by combining elements from physics, optics, and materials science in a seamless manner, and introducing quantum mechanics when needed. The book groups the characteristics of optical materials into classes... more...
Somitogenesis
Springer 2008; US$ 159.99We visualise developmental biology as the study of progressive changes that occur within cells, tissues and organisms themselves during their life span. This title includes nine chapters that cover topics that endeavour to capture the spirit of this dynamic discipline. It is suitable for different kinds of scientists, including basic researchers. more...
The Theory of the Moiré Phenomenon
Springer 2009; US$ 119.99Presents the work on the theory of the moire phenomenon, providing a full general-purpose and application-independent exposition of this fascinating effect. Based on the Fourier theory, this title leads the reader through the various phenomena which occur in the superposition of repetitive layers, both in the image and in the spectral domains. more...
