The interaction of electromagnetic waves with matter has always been a fascinating subject of study. As matter in the universe is mostly in the plasma state, the study of electromagnetic waves in plasmas is of importance to astrophysics, space physics and ionospheric physics. The physics of electromagnetic wave interacting with electron beams and plasmas also serves as a basis for coherent radiation generation such as free electron laser and gyrotron and advanced accelerators. This monograph aims at reviewing the physical processes of linear and nonlinear collective interactions of electromagnetic waves with electron beams and unmagnetized plasmas.

Intelligent electronics could shape future smart cities and promote initiatives on exploring brand-new integrated circuits, high-effective intelligent reconfigurable surfaces, nondestructive evaluation, terahertz (THz), ITS, 6G, medical and safety imaging, and signal filtering. This book presents mainstream principles, circuitry architectures, and a development roadmap for intelligent electronic systems. Its content ranges from theoretical basis to materials characteristics, and from featured advances to practical applications.
The products that drive the wireless communication industry, such as cell phones and pagers, employ circuits that operate at radio and microwave frequencies. Following on from a highly successful first edition, the second edition provides readers with a detailed introduction to RF and microwave circuits. Throughout, examples from real-world devices and engineering problems are used to great effect to illustrate circuit concepts. * Takes a top-down approach, describing circuits in the overall context of communication systems. * Presents expanded coverage of waveguides and FT mixers. * Discusses new areas such as oscillators design and digital communication. *An Instructor's Manual presenting detailed solutions to all the problems in the book is available from the Wiley editorial department.
Progress in Optics
This book presents the fundamental principles and applications of electromagnetic theory, with emphasis on applications in communication. The underlying theory for technological advances like medium and short wave communication, cellular communication, radar and satellite communication, laser and optical communication, remote sensing and geological and earth observing applications have also been explained lucidly. Thus, given the breadth of its coverage, besides being used as a textbook for electrodynamics for beginner and advanced undergraduate students of physics and engineering, this book may also serve as an effective reference source for telecommunication engineers, physicists and researchers. Key features: - rigorous mathematical details provided for involved physical concepts - In-text problem with complete solutions at relevant places in the chapters - unsolved problems with hints and answers - list of references at the end of each unit for interested readers - extensive figures annotating the text
Explores the English origins of the principles of judicial review in common law jurisdictions and autochthonous pressures for their adaptation.
The field of high-power laser-plasma interaction has grown in the last few decades, with applications ranging from laser-driven fusion and laser acceleration of charged particles to laser ablation of materials. This comprehensive text covers fundamental concepts including electromagnetics and electrostatic waves, parameter instabilities, laser driven fusion,charged particle acceleration and gamma rays. Two important techniques of laser proton interactions including target normal sheath acceleration (TNSA) and radiation pressure acceleration (RPA) are discussed in detail, along with their applications in the field of medicine. An analytical framework is developed for laser beat-wave and wakefield excitation of plasma waves and subsequent acceleration of electrons. The book covers parametric oscillator model and studies the coupling of laser light with collective modes.
Since Volume 1 was published in 1982, the centres of interest in the basic physics of semiconductors have shifted. Volume 1 was called Band Theory and Transport Properties in the first edition, but the subject has broadened to such an extent that Basic Properties is now a more suitable title. Seven chapters have been rewritten by the original authors. However, twelve chapters are essentially new, with the bulk of this work being devoted to important current topics which give this volume an almost encyclopaedic form. The first three chapters discuss various aspects of modern band theory and the next two analyze impurities in semiconductors. Then follow chapters on semiconductor statistics and...
