Cathodic Arcs
Cathodic arcs are among the longest studied yet least understood objects in science. Plasma-generating, tiny spots appear on the cathode; they are highly dynamic and hard to control. With an approach emphasizing the fractal character of cathode spots, strongly fluctuating plasma properties are described such as the presence of multiply charged ions that move with supersonic velocity. Richly illustrated, the book also deals with practical issues, such as arc source construction, macroparticle removal, and the synthesis of dense, well adherent coatings. The book spans a bridge from plasma physics to coatings technology based on energetic condensation, appealing to scientists, practitioners and graduate students alike.
Enduring Love
The shores of the Outer Banks not only offer sandy beaches, but the perfect setting for a romance to blossom as well. In love from the moment they met, Chloe and Jonathan’s feelings for one another would be stretched to the limit. When Jonathan was arrested one summer morning and charged with murder, it seemed their whirlwind summer romance had come to a devastating end. Doomed to spend the rest of his life in prison, Jonathan relied on the adage, “If you love someone, set them free.” Never one to give up, Chloe persisted. Several years later her prayers would be answered. Jonathan had finally come out of his shell of pity and wrote her a letter. Reconnecting, their love for one anothe...
Slavery, Migrations, and Transformations: Connecting Old and New Diasporas to the Homeland - Student Edition
Note: this is an abridged version of the book with references removed. The complete edition is also available on this website. From the historical movements of enslaved Africans to the Americas to newer migrations of Africans to spaces like Belgium and France, experiences of blackness on a global stage reflect themes of negotiation, persecution, isolation, unification, remembrance, and much more. Yet, it is impossible to minimize the complex experiences that make up the African diaspora throughout the world, as diasporic communities face a range of struggles, specifically related to the politics of identity and connections to the continent of Africa itself. This book is thus a timely and muc...
Between Philosophy and Poetry
Between Philosophy and Poetry examines the complex and controversial relation that has informed literary theory since ancient times: the difference between philosophy and poetry. The book explores three specific areas: the practice of writing with respect to orality; the interpretive modes of poetic and philosophical discourse as self-narration and historical understanding; how rhythm marks the differential spaces in poetry and philosophy. The book brings together some of the most prominent international scholars in the fields of philosophy and literature to examine the differences between orality and writing, the signs and traces of gender in writing, the historical dimension of the tension...
Communicating Science: A Practical Guide For Engineers And Physical Scientists
'The book under review is indeed a guide, and a practical one too, but it is not only for engineers and physical scientists — it is useful to all those who communicate technical information or need to and want to do the job well. The book achieves the objectives: every PhD student may not want to read the book, but should — and will not regret it.'European Science EditingRead this book before you write your thesis or journal paper! Communicating Science is a textbook and reference on scientific writing oriented primarily at researchers in the physical sciences and engineering. It is written from the perspective of an experienced researcher. It draws on the authors' experience of teaching...
A Plasma Formulary for Physics, Technology, and Astrophysics
Plasma physics has matured rapidly as a discipline, and now touches on many different research areas, including manufacturing processes. This collection of fundamental formulae and definitions in plasma physics is vital to anyone with an interest in plasmas or ionized gases, whether in physics, astronomy or engineering. Both theorists and experimentalists will find this book useful, as it incorporates the latest results and findings. The text treats astrophysical plasmas, fusion plasmas, industrial plasmas and low temperature plasmas as aspects of the same discipline - a unique approach made possible by the abbreviated nature of a formulary.
