May 21, 2010 by · Leave a Comment 

Product Description
Auger analysis can be used to identify all elements and is increasingly found in surface science laboratories as a means of producing compositional maps of surfaces at submicron resolutions. Auger Microprobe Analysis is both a working manual and a useful book of reference for experienced and inexperienced scientists in industrial, academic, or government laboratories. It describes the different types of Auger Microprobe and how they can be used to solve problems in many fields such as microcircuitry, materials failure, corrosion, tribology and environmental sampling. The book gives a thorough grounding in the subject, and for the scientist about to set up an Auger laboratory, there is detailed practical advice which is based upon the author’s own experience. The book covers every facet of Auger analysis including ultra high vacua, Auger signal detection, secondary electron microscopy and chemical bonding effects. It contains an extensive Auger related glossary and gives tables essential for qualitative and quantitative Auger analysis.

Product Description
The world at the turn of the twentieth century was in the throes of “Marconi-mania”-brought on by an incredible invention that no one could quite explain, and by a dapper and eccentric figure (who would one day win the newly minted Nobel Prize) at the center of it all. At a time when the telephone, telegraph, and electricity made the whole world wonder just what science would think of next, the startling answer had come in 1896 in the form of two mysterious wooden boxes containing a device Marconi had rigged up to transmit messages “through the ether.” It was the birth of the radio, and no scientist in Europe or America, not even Marconi himself, could at first explain how it worked…it just did.

Here is a rich portrait of the man and his era-a captivating tale of British blowhards, American con artists, and Marconi himself-a character par excellence, who eventually winds up a virtual prisoner of his worldwide fame and fortune.
