The Primary Scope Of This Text-Book Covers The Transmission As Well As Reflection Optics Of Minerals And The Methods Of Their Studies. To Explain The Optical Behaviour Of Minerals, Some Relevant Concepts In Spectroscopy Have Been Introduced. This Book Fills The Need Of The Students To A Better Understanding Of The Physical Nature Of Minerals Through Studies In Ir-Visible-X-Ray Region.This Book Contains Seven Chapters Titled As: General Optics: Interactions Of Light With Matter, Study In Polarised Light, Optical (Absorption) Sepctroscopic Studies Of Minerals, Reflection Optics, Reflection Spectroscopy, Vibrational Spectroscopy: Infrared And Raman - An Outline, X-Ray Optics. It Also Offers As Appendices The Transmission, Reflection Properties And X-Ray Data Of Minerals.This Is The Only Book That Lucidly Introduces The Principles Of Modern Methods Of Mineral Optics In A Single Volume For The Students Of Graduate And Post-Graduate Levels.
Significant achievements have been made at the cross-roads of physics and planetary science. In the second half of the twentieth century, the discipline of planetary sciences has witnessed three major episodes which have revolutionized its approach and content: (i) the plate-tectonic theory, (ii) human landing and discoveries in planetary astronomy and (iii) the extraordinary technical advancement in high P-T studies, which have been abetted by a vast improvement in computational methods. Using these new computational methods, such as first principles including ab initio models, calculations have been made for the electronic structure, bonding, thermal EOS, elasticity, melting, thermal condu...
In a weak moment, I have written a book. Margaret Mitchell This book is a multilayered creation that touches on a wide array of topics, many of them drawn from personal experiences. Indeed, you the lucky reader will be blessed with enough material for at least three books within one cover. Why would I want to write such a multi-themed book? It wasnt my original intention. Maybe Ive learned an important lesson and wont do so next time. Like many older folks, I wanted to share what I have learned to be true and useful and couldnt seem to stay with a single topic. Ive lived long enough to confirm an important realization: the gleanings from a well-lived life are at least as important as knowled...
