Energy Budget In The High Energy Universe
World Scientific Publishing Company 2007; US$ 156.00The existence of materials with very high specific energies greatly exceeding the local virial temperature is best represented by cosmic rays, whose origin has long been a mystery. Recent astrophysical observations in X-ray, gamma-ray, neutrino, and high energy cosmic ray experiments, in conjunction with theoretical studies, have revealed various new... more...
Cosmic Rays at Earth
Elsevier Science 2001; US$ 330.00In 1912 Victor Franz Hess made the revolutionary discovery that ionizing radiation is incident upon the Earth from outer space. He showed with ground-based and balloon-borne detectors that the intensity of the radiation did not change significantly between day and night. Consequently, the sun could not be regarded as the sources of this radiation... more...
Electron Dynamics by Inelastic X-Ray Scattering
Oxford University Press, UK 2007; US$ 198.99The book offers the first comprehensive review of experimental methods, theory, and successful applications of synchrotron radiation based inelastic X-ray scattering (IXS) spectroscopy, which enables the investigation of electron dynamics in condensed matter (correlated motion and excitation). - ;Knowledge of the dynamics of many-electron systems is... more...
