This textbook is intended for undergraduates who are carrying out laboratory experiments in the physical sciences for the first time. It is a practical guide on how to analyze data and estimate errors. The necessary formulas for performing calculations are given, and the ideas b…
This book is meant for young and mature adults who want to understand the scientific foundations of efficient use of energy, foundations stemming directly from thermodynamics and, less directly, from general principles of physics and chemistry.

This volume from the Einstein Studies Series is based largely on papers presented at the Sixth International Conference on the History of General Relativity, held in Amsterdam on June 26-29, 2002. These contributions from notable experts offer both new and historical insights on…
Recent developements in Computerised Axial Tomography, non-destructive testing of materials, and elemental analysis have encouraged a renewed theoretical and experimental interest in the determination of attenuation coefficients. In particular, the low energy region, < 100 keV, …
The development of magnox fuel cans at the Heston Laboratories of A.P.C. Ltd. required a non-contact method of measuring fuel can temperature during heat transfer tests. Infra-red techniques were examined and a two colour ratio pyrometer was selected as offering the greatest pro…
The goal of Evaluating Measurement Accuracy: A Practical Approach is to present methods for estimating the accuracy of measurements performed in industry, trade, and scientific research. From developing the theory of indirect measurements to proposing new methods of reduction, t…
Today many scientists recognize plasma as the key element to understanding new observations in near-Earth, interplanetary, interstellar, and intergalactic space; in stars, galaxies, and clusters of galaxies, and throughout the observable universe. Physics of the Plasma Universe,…
This book tells the fascinating story of the people and events behind the turbulent changes in attitudes to quantum theory in the second half of the 20th century. The huge success of quantum mechanics as a predictive theory has been accompanied, from the very beginning, by doubt…
