Methods and Materials for Remote Sensing
"Methods and Materials for Remote Sensing: InfraredPhoto-Detectors," "Radiometers and Arrays" presents the basicprinciples and the guidelines for the design of IR and microwaveradiometers intended for the detection of weak electromagnetic signalsin a noisy background.Significant attention is paid in this book to the discussion of theorigin of the noises and consideration of the physical factorslimiting the sensitivity of photo sensors. The physico-chemicalproperties of narrow-band semiconductors, which are the basicphotosensitive materials for the microwave and IR radiometry, arediscussed. Also described are the methods for growing the singlecrystals, epitaxial films and arrays from solid solutions of thesecompounds for the application in photosensitive detectors.The main goal of "Methods and Materials for Remote Sensing: Infrared" "Photo-Detectors, Radiometers and Arrays" is topresent the entire material from the unifying physical viewpoint, which will be helpful for the designers of photo-detecting devices, and professionals contributing in various areas of remote sensing.This book is also useful for the specialists working on thedevelopment of IR systems.
Geothermal Energy
Historically, cost effective, reliable, sustainable, and environmentally friendly, use of geothermal energy has been limited to areas where obvious surface features pointed to the presence of a shallow local heat source, such as hot springs and volcanoes. However, recent technological advances have dramatically expanded the range and size of viable resources, especially for applications such as modular power generation, home heating, and other applications that can use heat directly. These recent developments have greatly expanded opportunities for utilizing geothermal energy. Reflecting current interest in alternative energy, Geothermal Energy: Renewable Energy and the Environment explores ...
Ninth International Conference on Ferrites (ICF-9)
This proceedings includes 147 papers covering the latest scientific and technological developments in ferrites and related materials in three broad subject categories: Basic Science, Processing and Applications, and Special Topics and New Horizons. There are two main categories for ferrites: hard ferrites (permanent magnets) and soft ferrites. Topics covered are energy conversion, magnetite biomineralization, microwave ferrites, magneto-optical properties and applications of ferrite films, bonded magnets, physics of electronic superstructures in magnetite, physics of perovskites, nanostructural ferrites, and multilayer chip inductors.
Conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh, Abkhazia and South Ossetia
The conflicts in the South Caucasus are now a decade old, but still appear impervious to solution. The hopes that independence raised have been dashed by an insidious cocktail of past and present regional hegemony, historical antipathy and Soviet planning. Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia, thus, continue to wait for their long awaited Spring. In a region where Western academic writing has focussed, during the last decade, almost exclusively on the dynamics of regional security and Great Power rivalry, even in the context of conflict, this volume provides an important and necessary legal appraisal of the possible processes and structures which may, ultimately, facilitate the finding of constit...

The Political Economy of Human Rights in Armenia
Since its independence from the Soviet Union in 1991, Armenia has experienced a reversal from democratization to a Soviet-style authoritarian regime and has been accused of repressive approaches to human rights. Here, Simon Payaslian juxtaposes a masterful survey of the history of the Armenian people from the nineteenth century through the first republic (1918-21) and Sovietization to the present, with the evolution of international human rights standards, and argues that a statist and authoritarian political culture has impeded political liberalization and institutionalization of human rights principles. Highlighting the clash between sovereignty on one side and human rights and democracy on the other, this comprehensive and in-depth analysis is essential for all those interested in human rights, democratization, political repression and the former Soviet republics.

Modern Microwave Circuits
A single-source reference on the modern microwave engineering and practical applications of microstrip circuit technology, this invaluable book explains how microstrip circuits are built and provides in-depth coverage of computer-aided simulation and underlying theories. Including over 450 equations and more than 200 illustrations, it places special emphasis on working examples and full-wave electromagnetic simulations. You find detailed discussions on such critical topics as microwave passive lumped circuits, filter design, and calibration techniques. The book gives you a thorough understanding of filter networks by explaining the key role of network synthesis.
