An Introduction to the Physics of High Energy Accelerators (Wiley Series in Beam Physics and Accelerator Technology)

Buy
More than 50 years ago the discovery and understanding of radiation led to the idea of a beam of elementary particles. Since then the development of processes for the collection, focusing, and acceleration of such beams has given rise to a growing number of facilities designed to produce a variety of particle beams for a multitude of purposes.

The higher particle energies achieved in accelerators have provided a major stimulus for research into the constituents and nature of matter. Since the 1930s new sciences, from atomic to nuclear to particle physics, have emerged concurrent with newly developed beam probes which allow research to proceed to smaller and smaller sizes, deeper into matter. Fueled by technological innovation and motivated by scientific curiosity, the increase in energy of particle accelerators has been about an order of magnitude every seven years. Present strong focusing synchrotrons can achieve TeV (lo'* eV) energies-six orders of magnitude higher than the MeV (lo6 eV> energies achieved by the cyclotrons of 50 years ago.

Cranes: Design, Practice, and Maintenance
Cranes: Design, Practice, and Maintenance
This book looks at all types of cranes and deals with container and grab unloader cranes in some detail.

The objective has been to give a general overview of this very wide subject and then to provide positive, practical guidance to anyone involved in the design, specification, selection, or operation and

Markov Chains: Models, Algorithms and Applications (International Series in Operations Research & Management Science)
Markov Chains: Models, Algorithms and Applications (International Series in Operations Research & Management Science)
Markov chains are a particularly powerful and widely used tool for analyzing a variety of stochastic (probabilistic) systems over time. This monograph will present a series of Markov models, starting from the basic models and then building up to higher-order models. Included in the higher-order discussions are multivariate models, higher-order...
Galaxies and How to Observe Them (Astronomers' Observing Guides)
Galaxies and How to Observe Them (Astronomers' Observing Guides)

Galaxies are perhaps the most popular of all visual targets that are sought after by visual observers. At present the only way to get up-to-date information, is to query various (often highly technical) speciality books or digging deeply into the Internet. This can be a time consuming and often frustrating task, as the data aren’t often...


Spandrels of Truth
Spandrels of Truth
Among the various conceptions of truth is one according to which "is true" is a transparent, entirely see-through device introduced for only practical (expressive) reasons. This device, when introduced into the language, brings about truth-theoretic paradoxes (particularly, the notorious Liar and Curry paradoxes). The options for dealing...
Parallel Programming with Intel Parallel Studio XE (Wrox Programmer to Programmer)
Parallel Programming with Intel Parallel Studio XE (Wrox Programmer to Programmer)

Nearly all the computers sold today have a multi-core processor, but only a small number of applications are written to take advantage of the extra cores. Most programmers are playing catch-up. A recent consultation with a group of senior programming engineers revealed the top three hurdles in adopting parallelism: the challenges of porting...

Shark Hunting in Paradise Garden
Shark Hunting in Paradise Garden

Flying sharks and robots...More fun than the Bible!

What would you expect to find if you traveled back in time to the Garden of Eden? Adam and Eve? The tree of knowledge? A wicked serpent? How about some giant fucking flying sharks! That's right, I said sharks. Biblical sharks. Sharks that are bigger than city buses....
