Hermann Sicius bringt dem Leser in knapper Form alle wichtigen Informationen rund um die Halogene nahe, die eine der chemisch reaktivsten Gruppen von Elementen sind. Die Halogene sind teils schon lange bekannt, werden in sehr vielen Anwendungen eingesetzt und zeigen eine vor all…
This book surveys the main mathematical ideas and techniques behind some well-established imaging modalities such as X-ray CT and emission tomography, as well as a variety of newly developing coupled-physics or hybrid techniques, including thermoacoustic tomography. The Radon Tr…
Held at the American Chemical Society meeting in New York, Aug. 29-30, 1972 ; co-sponsored by the Division of Fuel Chemistry and the Division of Petroleum Chemistry.
Sex, drugs, rocks, gold, murder, war, mass poisonings, the deaths of Napoleon, Tchaikovsky, Mozart, and others are all linked by one element - arsenic! Arsenic has been around since the beginning of time and the word has become a metaphor for poison with associated shock value. …
The Periodic Table of Elements hasn''t always looked like it does now, a well-organized chart arranged by atomic number. In the mid-nineteenth century, chemists were of the belief that the elements should be sorted by atomic weight. However, the weights of many elements were cal…
"The Lost Elements tells stories of errors and mistakes in the development of the Periodic Table of Elements, from its conception to the present. Covers topics like false discoveries, scientific retractions, and elements removed from the Table."

Throughout its formation, the periodic table has seen false entries, good-faith errors, retractions, and dead ends; in fact, there have been more elemental 'discoveries' that have proven false than there are current elements on the table. This book collects the most notable of t…

In 1913, English physicist Henry Moseley established an elegant method for ""counting"" the elements based on atomic number, ranging them from hydrogen (#1) to uranium (#92). It soon became clear, however, that seven elements were mysteriously missing from the line up--seven ele…
