Optical Metrology for Fluids, Combustion and Solids
Optical Metrology for Fluids, Combustion and Solids is the first practical handbook that presents the assemblage of the techniques necessary to provide a basic understanding of optical measurement for fluids, combustion, and solids. The use of light as a measurement tool has grown over the past twenty years from a narrowly specialized activity to a mainstay of modern research today. Until recently, the knowledge that could be extracted from the light interaction of light with physical objects was limited to specialized activities. The invention of the laser, the computer and microelectronics has enabled a measurement revolution such that virtually every parameter of engineering interest can be measured using the minimally intrusive properties of light. The authors of this book's chapters are leaders in this revolution. They work on the front lines of research in government, industry, and universities, inventing yet more ways to harness the power of light for the generation of knowledge.

Ghost Pot
John Wedgwood Clarke's first full-length collection opens up with the image of the titular Ghost Pot: a lobster trap that, torn free from fishermen who launched it, drifts along the sea-bed, continuing its business of catching lobsters until it is re-discoverd, 'crammed to the throat with bony shields'. Returning to the coastline so vividly captured in his pamphlet 'Sew Swim', these new poems thrillingly evoke the seafront vistas of North Yorkshire. The poems flit between bays, brigfs, cliffs and frets, deftly portraying sea creatures, landmarks above and below the surface, and half-glimpsed residents with 'voices the moon defines', their 'yellow winter pub-talk clacking down wet steps'.
