Atom Interferometry |
|
In the past several years, there have been many important developments in the rapidly emerging field of atom interferometry. Atom interferometers have been constructed by several research groups around the world and used both as inertial sensors and for precision measurements. Also, atom interferometers allow researchers to probe interesting fundamental questions in quantum mechanics. This volume contains contributions from theoretical and experimental physicists at the forefront of these developments. There is a balance of background material and recent results that will enable the reader to acquire both a general overview of atom interferometry and an appreciation of the promise it holds for the future.

Basic Astronomy Labs |
|
Providing the tools and know-how to apply the principles of astronomy first-hand, these 43 laboratory exercises each contain an introduction that clearly shows budding astronomers why the particular topic of that lab is of interest and relevant to astronomy. About one-third of the exercises are devoted solely to observation, and no mathematics is required beyond simple high school algebra and trigonometry.Organizes exercises into six major topics--sky, optics and spectroscopy, celestial mechanics, solar system, stellar properties, and exploration and other topics--providing clear outlines of what is involved in the exercise, its purpose, and what procedures and apparatus are to be used. Offers variations on standard and popular exercises, and includes many that are new and innovative, such as 'The Messier List' which helps users discover basic facts about the Milky Way Galaxy by plotting these objects on a star chart; 'Motions of Earth' demonstrates just how fast the Earth is moving through space and in which direction it is going, and; 'Radioactivity and Time'

Mechanics, Heat, and the Human Body: An Introduction to Physics |
|
FEATURES Presents a wide range of examples and problems that demonstrate basic physics concepts as they relate to human movement, increasing readers' understanding of both physics and why and how physical therapy methods work. Emphasizes topics such as equilibrium problems involving joints (e.g., hip, knee, elbow, and lower back), heat generation within the body, and heat transfer both within the body and between the body and the environment. Each topic is developed quantitatively using high-school-level algebra (linear equations, simultaneous equations), trigonometric functions, and vectors, making topics more accessible to readers. SI and USA systems of units are used throughout, allowing readers to use the system with which they are most familiar.
