The Scientific Legacy of Beppo Occhialini
The thirtieth anniversary of the death of Beppo Occhialini, the cosmic-ray physicist associated among other things to the fundamental discoveries of the electron-positron pairs and of the pion thanks to his contributions to the development of the controlled cloud chamber and of new nuclear emulsions, is the occasion to publish his memoirs on the main events of his scientific life, which he dictated shortly before his death. This second edition of The Scientific Legacy of Beppo Occhialini takes us by the hand to appreciate the admiration if not the veneration he had for Patrick Blackett, the ironic rudeness of Lord Rutherford, or the troubled relationship with Cecil Powell. A particularly tho...
The Scientific Legacy of Beppo Occhialini
The present volume is a collection of reviews, essays and personal reminiscences on Occhialini's scientific life and work. Through these recollections the reader will also gain a vivid impression of the pioneering days of elementary particle physics when new detection methods emerged, like the triggered cloud chamber and nuclear emulsions - two techniques perfected by Occhialini - which made progress on comic ray physics possible in the first place.
Advanced Dynamics of Mechanical Systems
This book introduces a general approach for schematization of mechanical systems with rigid and deformable bodies. It proposes a systems approach to reproduce the interaction of the mechanical system with different force fields such as those due to the action of fluids or contact forces between bodies, i.e., with forces dependent on the system states, introducing the concepts of the stability of motion. In the first part of the text mechanical systems with one or more degrees of freedom with large motion and subsequently perturbed in the neighborhood of the steady state position are analyzed. Both discrete and continuous systems (modal approach, finite elements) are analyzed. The second part...
Advances in Applied Chemistry and Industrial Catalysis
Presenting a collection of papers resulting from the conference on "Applied Chemistry and Industrial Catalysis (ACIC 2021), Qingdao, China, 24-26 December 2021". The theme of the conference was: "Clean Production and High Value Utilization", discussing how to reduce the environmental footprint at the source and produce high value-added end products in chemical manufacturing. The conference brought together scholars from the Chinese government, top universities, business associations, research centers and high-tech enterprises, and was committed to building and enabling a platform for the cooperation among the Chinese government, Chemical industry, and scholars. The goal was to build a bridge...
Tumor Microenvironment
Revealing essential roles of the tumor microenvironment in cancer progression, this volume focuses on the extracellular matrix components of the tumor microenvironment during cancer development. Furthermore, it teaches readers about the roles of distinct constituents of the tumor microenvironment and how they affect cancer development. Topics include elastin, decorin, syndecan-1, versican, lipoproteins, brevican, thrombospondin, and much more. Taken alongside its companion volumes, Tumor Microenvironment: Extracellular Matrix Components – Part B updates us on what we know about the different aspects of the tumor microenvironment, as well as apprises us on the future advances in the field. ...
