Centennial History of the Carnegie Institution of Washington: Volume 2, The Department of Terrestrial Magnetism

In 1902, Andrew Carnegie founded the Carnegie Institution of Washington, to support innovative science research. Since its creation two years later, the Department of Terrestrial Magnetism has undertaken a broad range of research from terrestrial magnetism, ionospheric physics and geochemistry to biophysics, radio astronomy and planetary science. This second volume in a series of five histories of the Carnegie Institution describes the people and events, the challenges and successes that the Department has witnessed over the last century. Contemporary photographs illustrate some of the remarkable expeditions and instruments developed in pursuit of scientific understanding, from sailing ships to nuclear particle accelerators and radio telescopes to mass spectrometers. These photographs show an evolution of scientific progress through the century, often done under trying, even exciting circumstances.

The Theory of Games

This book, which first appeared in Chinese, comprises an introduction to game theory. It aims to present the fundamental concepts while developing themes such as continuous games, and n-person non-co-operative and co-operative games in a rigorous fashion. The first part of the book explores the properties of matrix games, and two elementary proofs of the Minimax Theorem are given. The author then considers the theory and applications of continuous games and n-person non-co-operative games. The book culminates in a comprehensive treatment of n-person co-operative games and includes an introduction to the nucleolus concept which is of great significance in this context. Students of mathematics and related subjects will find this to be a readable first account of game theory and an invaluable introduction to key topics.

Switching Arc Phenomena in Transmission Voltage Level Vacuum Circuit Breakers

Vacuum circuit breakers are widely used in distribution power systems for their advantages such as maintenance free and eco-friendly. Nowadays, most circuit breakers used at transmission voltage level are SF6 circuit breakers, but the SF6 they emit is one of the six greenhouse gases defined in Kyoto Protocol. Therefore, the development of transmission voltage level vacuum circuit breaker can help the environment. The switching arc phenomena in transmission voltage level vacuum circuit breakers are key issues to explore. This book focuses on the high-current vacuum arcs phenomena at transmission voltage level, especially on the anode spot phenomena, which significantly influence the success o...

New Progress in Cancer Biomarkers and Therapy

As we know, cancer is an important disease threatening human health. According to the latest statistics in “Global Cancer Statistics 2020”, cancer is expected to overtake cardiovascular disease as the leading cause of premature death in most countries this century. That sounds pretty terrible, but it is believed that this situation should be better along with the advances in tumor biology. There is no doubt that biomarkers have very significant clinical implications, which can be used for early diagnosis, monitoring progress, and predicting the prognosis of cancer.
