Researchers and graduate students interested in the Mössbauer Effect and its Application will find this volume of the Hyperfine Interactions Journal indispensable. The volume presents the most recent developments in the methodology of Mössbauer spectroscopy; it covers the progress in the understanding of the more recent fields of nanoparticles, nanowires, multilayers and superlattices, surfaces and interfaces. In addition, the traditional areas of applications in physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, earth science, mineralogy, archaeology, material science, thin films, metallurgy and industrial applications like corrosion and catalysis are well presented. The contributions include theoretical treatments using ab initio calculations, molecular simulations as well as experimental results utilizing techniques like transmission spectroscopy, CEMS and nuclear resonance scattering.
This volume contains papers presented at the 8th International Conference on Solid State Physics (SSP 2004), Workshop "Mössbauer Spectroscopy of Locally Heterogeneous Systems", held in Almaty, Kazakhstan, 23–26 August 2004. It should be of interest to researchers and PhD students working or interested in recent results in the locally inhomogeneous system investigations by Mössbauer Spectroscopy and the new concepts of data evaluation of complex Mössbauer spectra.

This volume is a collection of lectures and selected papers by Giorgio Parisi on the subjects of Field Theory (perturbative expansions, nonperturbative phenomena and phase transitions), Disordered Systems (mainly spin glasses) and Computer Simulations (lattice gauge theories).The basic problems discussed in the Field Theory section concern the interplay between perturbation theory and nonperturbative phenomena which are present when one deals with infrared or ultraviolet divergences or with nonconvergent perturbative expansions. The section on Disordered Systems contains a complete discussion about the replica method and its probabilistic interpretation, and also includes a short paper on mu...
This is the second volume in the NATO ASI series dealing with the topic of hydrogen in solids. The first (V. B76, Metal Hydrides) appeared five years ago and focussed primarily on crystalline phases of hydrided metallic systems. In the intervening period, the amorphous solid state has become an area of intense research activity, encompassing both metallic and non-metallic, e.g. semiconducting, systems. At the same time the problem of storage of hydrogen, which motivated the first ASI, continues to be important. In the case of metallic systems, there were early indications that metallic glasses and disordered alloys may be more corrosion resistant, less susceptible to embrittlement by hydrogen and have a higher hydrogen mobility than ordered metals or intermetallics. All of these properties are desirable for hydrogen storage. Subsequent research has shown that thermodynamic instability is a severe problem in many amorphous metal hydrides. The present ASI has provided an appropriate forum to focus on these issues.
ICAME is the major International Conference on research in which Mössbauer Spectroscopy plays a key role. Mainstream topics cover Condensed Matter Science, - magnetism, nanophase materials, chemical structure and bonding, industrial applications including catalysis and corrosion, biological and medical studies. Non-mainstream investigations include relating diamonds to the state of the earth's interior and processes on asteroids and meteorites. Techniques include synchrotron radiation studies as well as traditional spectroscopy to provide a snapshot of worldwide activity in this field of research in 2001.
Nanomaterials are of current focus of research to the scientist and technologists due to their new, interesting and superior properties over the bulk material. The present chapter provides the basic knowledge of nanomaterials. The classification, properties and applications of nanomaterial are briefly discussed. The interest in synthesis and characterization of spinel ferrite nanomaterials has increased almost in last two decades. The work carried out by various researchers on synthesis, characterization and measurement of magnetic and electrical properties of spinel ferrites are reported systematically in literature survey. The aim of the present work is to synthesize spinel ferrite nano¬particles with different preparative conditions and study their structural, magnetic and other properties.
This volume and its two companion volumes, entitled Tetrahedrally-Bonded Amorphous Semiconductors and Localization and Metal-Insulator Transitions, are our way of paying special tribute to Sir Nevill Mott and to express our heartfelt wishes to him on the occasion of his eightieth birthday. Sir Nevill has set the highest standards as a physicist, teacher, and scientific leader. Our feelings for him include not only the respect and admiration due a great scientist, but also a deep affection for a great human being, who possesses a rare combination of outstanding personal qualities. We thank him for enriching our lives, and we shall forever carry cherished memories of this noble man. Scientists...

The 2016 2nd International Conference on Energy Equipment Science and Engineering (ICEESE 2016) was held on November 12-14, 2016 in Guangzhou, China. ICEESE 2016 brought together innovative academics and industrial experts in the field of energy equipment science and engineering to a common forum. The primary goal of the conference is to promote research and developmental activities in energy equipment science and engineering and another goal is to promote scientific information interchange between researchers, developers, engineers, students, and practitioners working all around the world. The conference will be held every year to make it an ideal platform for people to share views and experiences in energy equipment science and engineering and related areas. This second volume of the two-volume set of proceedings covers the field of Structural and Materials Sciences, and Computer Simulation & Computer and Electrical Engineering.
