X-Ray Scattering from Soft-Matter Thin Films (Springer Tracts in Modern Physics, #148)
by M. Tolan
This volume is dedicated to the scattering of x-rays by soft matter interfaces. X-ray scattering under grazing angles is the only tool for investigating these materials on atomic and mesoscopic length scales. A review of the field is presented with many examples. The properties of soft-matter thin films such as liquid films, polymer coatings and Langmuir-Blodgett multilayers now play an important role in materials science. In thin films, liquids and polymers may be considered as trapped in a qua...
Hardbound. Impurity profiling is the common name of a group of analytical activities, the aim of which is the detection, identification/structure elucidation and quantitative determination of organic and inorganic impurities, as well as residual solvents in bulk drugs and pharmaceutical formulations. Since this is the best way to characterise the quality and stability of bulk drugs and pharmaceutical formulations, this is the core activity in modern drug analysis.Due to the very rapid developmen...
Organic Semiconductors and Biopolymers (Monographs in Semiconductor Physics, #6) (Monographs in Inorganic Chemistry, #6)
by Leonid I Boguslavskii
In recent years, considerable progress has been made in the study of organic semiconductors. The main directions of investigation, have been determined and substantial results have been achieved in the theoretical treatment of many questions. However, the range of investigations is so broad that it is impossible to discuss all branches fully in a short monograph. In fact, the chemist synthe sizing systems with conjugated bonds and studying their reactivity, the physical chemist studying the cat...

The Formation and Evolution of M33 as Revealed by Its Star Clusters (Springer Theses)
by Izaskun San Roman
This thesis represents the first wide-field photometric and spectroscopic survey of star clusters in the nearby late-spiral galaxy M33. This system is the nearest example of a dwarf spiral galaxy, which may have a unique role in the process of galaxy formation and evolution. The cold dark matter paradigm of galaxy formation envisions large spiral galaxies, such as the Milky Way, being formed from the merger and accretion of many smaller dwarf galaxies. The role that dwarf spiral galaxies play in...
