Advances in Oxygenated Processes (Advances in oxygenated processes, #1)
After studying ring-chain tautomerism of keto ami des and related derivatives of functionalized carboxylic acids for more than ten years, the authors consider it useful to summarize available results on these prototropic equilibria. First attempts to systematize the material were published by Jones in 1963 (Chapter 1, ref. 11). Much, sometimes contradictory, experimental data were scattered about the literature at that time; spectroscopic methods, applied to this field during the last two decade...

Learning to read is not natural for many individuals, who remain dependent on the skill, knowledge, and persistence of their teachers to acquire reading proficiency. Reading instruction, however, can be designed with greater validity than ever before because of a solid, converging body of scientific research on reading acquisition, reading processes, and reading disabilities. This special issue presents some of the major advances in methodologically and theoretically sound treatment research by...
Molecular Conformation and Dynamics of Macromolecules in Condensed Systems
This is the second report that addresses results from the Co-ordinated Research Project on Irradiation Enhanced Degradation of Materials in Spent Fuel Storage Facilities. The first report is entitled Durability of Spent Nuclear Fuels and Storage Facility Components in Wet Storage, IAEA-TECDOC-1012. Because of the enhanced importance of wet storage, the scope of the first report was expanded to include both irradiated and unirradiated effects on fuels and facility materials. This second report ad...
Hydrogen Power: Theoretical and Engineering Solutions
This volume contains selected contributions to the second Hydrogen Power, Theoretical and Engineering Solutions, International Symposium (HYPOTHESIS II), held in Grimstad, Norway, from 18 to 22 August 1997. The scientific programme included 10 oral sessions and a poster session. Widely based national committees, supported by an International Scientific Advisory Board and the International Coordinators, made every effort to design and bring together a programme of great excellence. The more than...
The Radiological Accident in Cochabamba
In April 2002 an accident involving an industrial radiography source containing Ir-192 occurred in Cochabamba, Bolivia, some 500 km from the capital, La Paz. The source, in a remote exposure container, remained exposed within a guide tube, although this was not known at the time. The container, guide tube and other equipment were transported from Cochabamba to La Paz as cargo on a passenger bus. This bus had a full load of passengers for most of the eight hour journey. The equipment was subseque...
Atomic Particles and Atom Systems (Springer Series on Atomic, Optical, and Plasma Physics, #51)
by Boris M. Smirnov
This book presents physical units and widely used physical formulas, which are given together with conversion factors in various units. It includes frequently used atomic spectra and data for atoms, ions and molecules, as well as potential curves for diatomic molecules, and provides numerical parameters for transport phenomena in gases and plasmas. Further, the rate constants of a number of processes in atmospheric ionized air have been added to this second edition of the book. The numerical dat...
This work looks at thin films and self-assembled monolayers of thiols. It is aimed at researchers in chemistry, materials science, electrical engineering, biology and condensed matter physics.
This textbook on colloids takes a straightforward approach to the subject by tackling fundamental issues which are then illustrated by the relevent experimental techniques. It shows the connection between the molecular world and the colloidal domain, illustrating how molecular interactions lead to colloidal behaviour. The work focuses on association colloids rather than the more traditional lyophobic colloidal systems.
Regulatory Control of Radiation Sources (IAEA Safety Standards)
This Safety Guide is intended to assist States in implementing the requirements established in Safety Standards Series No. GS-R-1, Legal and Governmental Infrastructure for Nuclear, Radiation, Radioactive Waste and Transport Safety, for a national regulatory infrastructure to regulate any practice involving radiation sources in medicine, industry, research, agriculture and education. The Safety Guide provides advice on the legislative basis for establishing regulatory bodies, including the effec...
Metric Driven Design Verification (Lecture Notes in Physics, #44)
by Hamilton B. Carter and Shankar G. Hemmady
The purpose of the book is to train verification engineers on the breadth of technologies available and to give them a utilitarian methodology for making effective use of those technologies. The book is easy to understand and a joy to read. Its organization follows a 'typical' verification project from inception to completion, (planning to closure). The book elucidates concepts using non-technical terms and clear entertaining explanations. Analogies to other fields are employed to keep the book...
Ordering at Surfaces and Interfaces (Springer Series in Materials Science, #17)
This volume contains the proceedings of the third in a series of biennial NEC Symposia on Fundamental Approaches to New Material Phases sponsored by the NEC Corporation, Tokyo, Japan. The symposium was held from October 7 to 11, 1990, at the Hakone Kanko H9tel in Hakone. About 40 invited participants stayed together, became involved in intense discussions, and freely exchanged ideas both in and out of the conference room, which faced Mt. Fuji, the beautiful lake Ashinoko, and the quiet landscape...
Mastering Chemistry -- Standalone Access Card -- for Physical Chemistry
by Ignacio Tinoco, Kenneth Sauer, James C. Wang, Joseph D. Puglisi, Gerard Harbison, and David Rovnyak
This Safety Report provides practical information on the application of the principle of the optimization of radiation protection in the workplace. It emphasizes the importance of integrating radiation protection into the work management system and of the involvement of management and workers alike in setting up and implementing a radiation protection system.

Self-Diffusion in Electrolyte Solutions (Composite Materials, #36) (Physical Sciences Data)
by R. Mills and V M M Lobo
This compilation - the first of its kind - fills a real gap in the field of electrolyte data. Virtually all self-diffusion data in electrolyte solutions as reported in the literature have been examined and the book contains over 400 tables covering diffusion in binary and ternary aqueous solutions, in mixed solvents, and of non-electrolytes in various solvents. An important feature of the compilation is that all data have been critically examined and their accuracy assessed. Other features are a...
