Electromagnetic Geothermometry explores, presents and explains the new technique of temperature estimation within the Earth's interior; the Electromagnetic technique will identify zones of geothermal anomalies and thus provides locations for deep drilling. This book includes man…
In a wonderful synthesis of science, history, and imagination, Gino Segre, an internationally renowned theoretical physicist, embarks on a wide-ranging exploration of how the fundamental scientific concept of temperature is bound up with the very essence of both life and matter.…
Theorizes that temperature is the most revealing method of measurement, considering such topics as the fixed internal temperature of most mammals and the significance of hydrothermal vents on the ocean floor.
Temperature, Second Edition gives a comprehensive account of the principles of thermometry over the range 0.5 K to about 3000 K. The book focuses on various topics on the field of thermometry such as the full description of the ITS-90, its practical application and preparation; …
Updates developments which have taken place since the previous edition in 1983. The measurement of temperature is the most common and important physical measurement in both research and industry, and this book provides a guide to thermometry, including the 1990 International Tem…
