Radar Interferometry
Springer 2006; US$ 139.99Deals with the Persistent Scatterer Technique, a development in radar interferometric data processing. Using this technique, millimetric displacements can be observed at hundreds of thousands of targets that are affected only slightly from temporal and geometric decorrelation. more...
Modern Optical Spectroscopy
Springer 2007; US$ 69.99Gives explanations of the theory of optical spectroscopic phenomena and shows how these ideas are used in modern molecular and cellular biophysics and biochemistry. This book covers topics such as electronic and vibrational absorption, fluorescence, resonance energy transfer, exciton interactions, circular dichroism, and coherence and dephasing. more...
The Theory of the Moiré Phenomenon
Springer 2007; US$ 99.99Presents the theory of the moire phenomenon between aperiodic or random layers. This book provides a general purpose and application-independent exposition of the subject. It leads the reader through the various phenomena that occur in the superposition of correlated aperiodic layers, both in the image and in the spectral domains. more...
Terahertz Spectroscopy
Taylor & Francis 2007; US$ 189.95Provides a reference on terahertz spectroscopic techniques. The first section of this book focuses on instrumentation and methods for terahertz spectroscopy. The second and third sections present an overview of a range of applications of terahertz spectroscopy, both fundamental and applied, to key areas of interest in different fields. more...
Patterns of Light
Springer 2007; US$ 64.99Begins by addressing properties of light as seen in the everyday world: events such as refraction in a pool, lenses in the form of glasses, the colors of objects, atmospheric events, and more. This title includes chapters that explain these events at the atomic and subatomic level. more...
