A look at the William Head Quarantine Station in British Columbia and the thousands of immigrants who were housed there upon their arrival in Canada.
Denver's beloved columnist Gene Amole stunned readers of the Rocky Mountain News in October 2001 when he announced in his column that he was dying. He passed away six months later, just shy of his 79th birthday. This book presents Amole's powerful, poignant, and first-person account of his last days.
Trace Analysis by Mass Spectrometry deals with trace analysis of solids and liquids by mass spectrometric techniques. Topics include the physics and techniques of electrical discharge ion sources, transmission of ions through double focusing mass spectrometers, and detection and measurement of ions by ion-sensitive plates. The ion sources used are principally electrical discharge type sources. This book is comprised of 14 chapters. The first several chapters focus on the basic physics of electrical discharge ion sources, double focusing mass spectrometry, and the measurement of arrays of mass resolved ion beams by electrical detection methods and with ion sensitive emulsions. The discussion ...
This book presents the state of the art in reactor dosimetry as applied to nuclear power plants and to high performance research reactors, accelerator-driven systems and spallation sources. The reader will also find the latest advances in computer code development for radiation transport and shielding. In addition, the book focuses on radiation measurement techniques.
This book consists of a selection of original papers of the leading scientists in the fields of Space and Planetary Physics, Solar and Space Plasma Physics with important contributions to the theory, modeling and experimental techniques of the solar wind exploration. Its purpose is to provide the means for interested readers to become familiar with the current knowledge of the solar wind formation and elemental composition, the interplanetary dynamical evolution and acceleration of the charged plasma particles, and the guiding magnetic field that connects to the magnetospheric field lines and adjusts the effects of the solar wind on Earth. I am convinced that most of the research scientists actively working in these fields will find in this book many new and interesting ideas.

This symposium provided a forum for interchange of state-of-the-art techniques and databases and for standardization of radiation metrology.The proceedings are of value to anyone involved in reactor dosimetry, including researchers, manufacturers, and representatives from industry, utilities and regulatory agencies. The major topics treated are: reactor pressure vessel surveillance and plant life management; reactor dosimetry techniques; benchmarks; nuclear data; damage correlation and exposure parameters; experimental and calculational characterization of irradiation environments; dosimetry for research reactors and irradiation experiments.
