The Fourth International Symposium “Atomic Cluster Collisions: Structure and Dynamics from the Nuclear to the Biological Scale” (ISACC 2009) (AIP Conference … / Atomic, Molecular, Chemical Physics)

The symposium was devoted to discussion of the structure and properties of nuclear, atomic, molecular, biological and complex cluster systems studied by means of photonic, electronic, atomic and cluster collisions, high resolution mass spectroscopy, ion traps, versatile tunable lasers, new detectors and imaging techniques, NMR and atomic force spectroscopy. In the symposium, a particular attention has been devoted to dynamical phenomena, many-body effects taking place in clusters, nanostructures, molecular and biological systems, which include problems of fusion and fission, fragmentation, collective electron excitations, phase transitions and many more. Both experimental and theoretical aspects of cluster physics uniquely placed between nuclear physics on the one hand and atomic, molecular, and solid state physics on the other, were the subjects of the symposium.

Metal Clusters at Surfaces: Structure, Quantum Properties, Physical Chemistry

Metal Clusters at Surfaces: Structure, Quantum Properties, Physical Chemistry

Numerous experiments and calculations have shown that isolated metal clusters possess many interesting features, quite different from those known from surface and solid- state physics or from atomic and molecular physics. The technological exploitation of these new properties, e.g. in miniature electronic or mechanical components, requires the cluster to be brought into an environment such as an encapsulating matrix or a surface. Due to the interaction with the contact medium, the properties of the clusters may change or even disappear. Thus the physics of cluster-on-surface systems — the main subject of this book — is of fundamental importance. The book addresses a wide audience, from the newcomer to the expert. Starting from fundamental concepts of adsorbate-surface interactions, the modification of electronic properties through electron confinement, and concepts of cluster production, it elucidates the distinct properties of the new metallic nanostructures.

Introduction to XAFS: A Practical Guide to X-ray Absorption Fine Structure Spectroscopy

May 26, 2010 by · Leave a Comment 

Product Description
X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (XAFS) is a powerful and versatile technique for studying structures of materials in chemistry, physics, biology and other fields. This textbook is a comprehensive, practical guide to carrying out and interpreting XAFS experiments. Assuming only undergraduate-level physics and mathematics, the textbook is ideally suited for graduate students in physics and chemistry starting XAFS-based research. It contains concise executable example programs in Mathematica 7. Supplementary material available at www.cambridge.org/9780521767750 includes Mathematica code from the book, related Mathematica programs, and worked data analysis examples. The textbook addresses experiment, theory, and data analysis, but is not tied to specific data analysis programs or philosophies. This makes it accessible to a broad audience in the sciences, and a useful guide for researchers entering the subject.

Magnetic Properties and Applications of Ferromagnetic Microwires With Amorpheous and Nanocrystalline Structure

May 22, 2010 by · Leave a Comment 

Product Description
Recent advances in technology involving magnetic materials require development of novel advanced magnetic materials with improved magnetic and magneto-transport properties. Additionally the tendency on miniaturisation of the modern magnetic sensors and devices stimulates development of such magnetic materials with reduced dimensionality. Certain progress has been recently achieved in fabrication of novel magnetic nano-materials (thin films, nanowires, nano-dots…), but at the same time quite sophisticated technology should be used but in many occasions the magnetic properties of these materials are rather poorer than such properties of bulk magnetic materials (amorphous ribbons, wires, sintered materials…) and the fabrication process is much more expansive and complex. On the other hand certain industrial sectors, like magnetic sensors, microelectronics, security etc, need cheap materials with reduced dimensionality but still with high magnetic properties (particularly enhanced magnetic softness). Therefore magnetic materials with outstanding magnetic characteristics and reduced dimensionality recently gained much attention. The aim of this book is to present the most relevant aspects concerning the fabrication process following by sections devoted to present significant results on the demagnetisation process, compositional dependence and processing of glass-coated mirocwires with amorphous, nanocrystalline and granular character in order to design their magnetic properties.
