Welche Rolle spielte die Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft in den Jahren der nationalsozialistischen Gewaltherrschaft, welche Position nahm sie im Prozess der wissenschafts- und forschungspolitischen Neuorientierung ein und was war ihre Funktion im politischen Macht- und Handlungsgefuge des Dritten Reiches? Welchen Einfluss hatten die Vertreter der so genannten «Deutschen Physik» in der Deutschen Physikalischen Gesellschaft und in der damalige ...
Complex interacting networks are observed in systems from such diverse areas as physics, biology, economics, ecology, and computer science. For example, economic or social interactions often organize themselves in complex network structures. Similar phenomena are observed in traffic flow and in communication networks as the internet. In current problems of the Biosciences, prominent examples are protein networks in the living cell, as well as mo ...
In this sequel to his book, «The Optics of Rays, Wavefronts, and Caustics,» Stavroudis not only covers his own research results, but also includes more recent developments. The book is divided into three parts, starting with basic mathematical concepts that are further applied in the book. Surface geometry is treated with classical mathematics, while the second part covers the k-function, discussing and solving the eikonal equation as well as Ma ...

The material for this book stems from collaborations fostered by the Center for Adaptive Optics, a conso ...
Dieses Lehrbuch gibt eine umfassende Einfuhrung in die theoretischen Grundlagen und experimentellen Methoden der Kern- und Elementarteilchenphysik. Dabei werden durch eine einheitliche Beschreibungsweise die Parallelen zwischen beiden Gebieten aufgezeigt. Entstanden aus einer Vorlesung an der Universitat Duisburg/Essen bietet das Buch, unterstutzt durch zahlreiche Illustrationen und Beispiele, den gesamten Inhalt einer entsprechenden Kursvorlesu ...
The first half deals with the motion of a single particle under the influence of electronic and magnetic fields. The basic language of linear and circular accelerators is developed. The principle of phase stability is introduced along with phase oscillations in linear accelerators and synchrotrons. Presents a treatment of betatron oscillations followed by an excursion into nonlinear dynamics and its application to accelerators. The second half d ...
Focusing on real applications of nanocomposites and nanotechnologies for sustainable development, this book shows how nanocomposites can help to solve energy and environmental problems, including a broad overview of energy-related applications and a unique selection of environmental topics. Clearly structured, the first part covers such energy-related applications as lithium ion batteries, solar cells, catalysis, thermoelectric waste heat harves ...
