It is somewhat presumptuous to produce yet another book on relativity, despite the fact that the publishers are producing a new series of texts on undergraduate physics. There is already a number of excellent texts on the market which deal clearly with many aspects of the subject. As always in this situation, the author is reduced to justifying his efforts by claiming that he hopes he has produced a new perspective on the subject. In my case that perspective is not really a new one but goes back to the arguments that were around at the beginning of this century. Most texts at undergraduate level omit, or treat very scantily, the role of electromagnetic theory in the development of special relativity, and yet it played a central role.

Un'originale storia d'amore… a quattro. Leonora Eyre è una donna che ha fatto della moderazione la sua principale virtù: graziosa ma non bella, elegante ma non vistosa, intelligente ma non intellettuale, benestante ma non ricca. E con una cerchia di pochi, fidati amici, in cui a un tratto entrano Humphrey, un affascinante antiquario, e suo nipote James. Se Humphrey si cala all'istante nel mondo della donna, in cui gli oggetti sono più importanti – e certamente più affidabili – delle persone, James si limita a osservare, senza accorgersi di essere manipolato da Leonora, che spera di conquistarlo. A rovesciare gli equilibri arriva però Ned, un giovane americano, che seduce James e poi lo abbandona..

Le trame, le passioni, i personaggi dei più grandi capolavori di Shakespeare raccontati come storie di guerra e di avventura, di equivoci e di amori, in cui un uso della narrazione moderno si alterna alle battute originali dei dialoghi shakespeariani. Drammi come Otello o Romeo e Giulietta, lotte per il potere come Macbeth e Riccardo II, intrighi di magia come La tempesta e Sogno di una notte di mezza estate, sono solo alcune delle dodici indimenticabili storie presenti nella raccolta e ormai patrimonio condiviso dalle culture di tutto il mondo. Un modo di far conoscere ai ragazzi i grandi capolavori che fanno ormai parte della cultura popolare.

This second edition was undertaken to update information which has become available since the first edition and to convert completely to the SI system. The main objective of this book is to stress application of soil physics principles to real problems. The problems are heavily oriented toward the soil­ water-plant-atmosphere continuum. This book grew out of a course taught to upper level undergraduate and graduate students from many different disciplines and backgrounds. I have found that problems are a very good teaching tool because students need to solve them on their own and adapt them to their own understanding. I have found this problem-solving experience to be greatly enhanced if examples are available. Thus, this book is heavily laden with examples. This edition includes reference to many models, involving basic concepts discussed herein, by which it is possible to solve many more realistic–and more complex–problems such as drainage below the root zone (and associated pollution), plant growth as related to climate, soil properties, management, etc. The intent is to encourage students to advance to the next level. The book is not intended to be a complete introduction to applied soil physics, but rather to emphasize problem-solving and the important aspects of soil water and temperature.

This book is based upon a series of lectures I have occasionally given at the University of Gottingen since 1951. They were meant to introduce the students of experimental physics to the work in a neutron physics laboratory dealing with the problem of measuring neutron flux, diffusion length, Fermi age, effective neutron temperature, absorption cross sections and similar problems. Moreover, these lectures were intended to prepare the students for a subsequent lecture covering the physics of nuclear reactors. The original character of this series of lectures has been retained in the book. It is intended for use by students as well as anyone desiring to work on neutron physics measurements. The first half mainly covers the theory of neutron fields, i. e. essentially diffusion and slowing down theory. The second half is largely concerned with measurements in neutron fields. The appendix contains information and data which, in our experience, are frequently required in a neutron laboratory. The field of nuclear physics proper is briefly touched upon in the first two chapters, but only to the extent necessary for the understanding of the following chapters. The multitude of applications of neutron radiation has not been covered. The conclusion of this manuscript coincided with the end of my long period of activity with the Max-Planck-Institut fur Physik at Gottingen. To Professor HEISENBERG lowe thanks for his advice and suggestions for many of the subjects treated here.

Effie, giovane domestica al servizio dell'arrogante famiglia Culver, si è innamorata del fascinoso Mr Benedict Ashbrooke. C'è solo un problema: una domestica non può sposare un gentiluomo, e davanti a lei si prospetta un futuro di infelicità. Almeno fino a che Effie non incontra Lord Blackthorn, che con la sua magia la trasforma in una dama di alto rango e le offre l'occasione di prendere parte a quei balli lussuosi che ha sempre sognato. L'ammaliante fae intende aiutarla a conquistare il cuore di Ashbrooke; tutto ciò che chiede in cambio è che la ragazza cucia diecimila punti sulla sua giacca preferita… Stringere un patto con un fae è pericoloso, ma la sua vita come domestica a Hartfield è così orribile che Effie è disposta a rischiare anche la sua anima. Ora ha cento giorni - e diecimila punti di cucito - per riuscire a sposare Mr Ashbrooke. Troverà il vero amore prima che il tempo scada?

This past July about sixty physicists from sixteen different countries gathered at St. Croix in the United States Virgin Islands for an Advanced Study Institute (ASI) on Techniques and Concepts of High Energy Physics. The initial idea for the Institute arose one blustery and miserable day at Fermilab during discussions about all the wonderful summer schools that were prevalent throughout Europe but essentially nonexistent in the United States. I felt that it would be of great value to have an Institute that was located in a beautiful area and that catered primarily to the hard­ working experimenters who stoically suffer both the winter cold and summer heat at Fermilab. Summer schools in our field generally provide the very useful opportunity of meeting physicists who work along different lines of research, as well as the opportunity of keeping abreast of new developments. All schools tend to emphasize recent theoretical advances and phenomenology, while technical questions that are of great interest to experimenters are seldom discussed. It seemed appropriate therefore to organize a summer institute that would combine topics in accelerator design, data acquisition and the like, with the more standard theoretical fare. This is the general idea that prevailed in setting up the program of the Institute at St.

Per la prima volta, sua santità il Dalai Lama racconta la sua storia e le prove che lui e il suo popolo hanno dovuto sostenere. Sua Santità il Dalai Lama ha dovuto combattere contro le autorità cinesi per quasi tutta la vita. Aveva solo 16 anni quando la Cina ha invaso il Tibet, nel 1950, appena 19 quando incontrò per la prima volta il Presidente Mao e 25 quando fu costretto a fuggire in esilio in India. Nei sette decenni trascorsi da allora, ha affrontato i leader comunisti cinesi – Mao, Deng Xiaoping, Jiang Zemin e Hu Jintao – lottando per la libertà del Tibet e cercando di preservarne la cultura, la lingua, la religione e la storia, nonostante un governo che lo ha emarginato e demonizzato..

When this publisher offered me the opportunity to \\Tite a book, some six years ago, I did not hesitate to say yes. I had just spent the last four years of graduate school struggling to understand the physics of strained quantum well lasers, and it seemed to me the whole experience was much more difficult that it should have been. For although many of the results I needed were easy to locate, the underlying physical premises and intervening steps were not. If only I had a book providing the derivations, I could have absorbed them and gone on my way. Such a book lies before you. It provides a unified and self-contained descrip­ tion of the essential physics of strained quantum well lasers, starting from first principles whenever feasible. The presentation I have chosen requires only the standard introductory background in quantum mechanics, solid state physics, and electromagnetics expected of entering graduate students in physics or elec­ trical engineering. A single undergraduate course in each of these subjects should be more than sufficient to follow the text. :'Iore advanced material on quantum mechanics is developed and collected in the first chapter. \Vhen pos­ sible, I have presented the results in a general setting and have later applied them to specific cases of interest. I find this the most satisfying way to ap­ proach the subject, and it has the additional benefit of solving many problems once and for all.
