Download or read book From Bulk to Nano written by Carmen-Gabriela Stefanita and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-09-24 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspiration for this book can be traced back many years to two major works that in?uenced the author’s outlook on applied physics: FerromagnetismusbyR. Becker,W. D ̈ oring (Springer, Berlin 1939), and Ferromagnetism by R. M. Bozorth (IEEE Press, New York 1951). The former work is a collection of lectures held in the 1930s for ‘technicians’ attending a technical college. The German language in which the work was originally written was extremely convenient for the author of this present book, as it was for a long time the only comfortable technical language in an English speaking environment. Later on, upon encountering the work by Bozorth, it was a relief to see the clarity and eloquence of the subjects presented in English, despite the impressive thickness of the book. Bozorth’s work still constitutes a practical review for anyone in a multidisciplinary industry who comes across the various manifestations of magnetism. The popularity of both works is so enduring that they are regarded as highly academic, and yet extremely readable, a reference in their own right, still attracting many readers these days in industry and academia. The ?eld of magnetism progressed immensely in the twentieth century, and shows no signs of slowing down in the present one. It has become so vast that it is quite often viewed only in its parts, rather than as a whole. In today’smyriadofapplications,especiallyonananoscale,andtheirchangeable implications mostly on a macroscale, it often seems that di?erent aspects of reported work on magnetism are scattered and unrelated.

Download or read book Magnetism and Magnetic Materials written by J. M. D. Coey and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-25 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Covering basic physical concepts, experimental methods, and applications, this book is an indispensable text on the fascinating science of magnetism, and an invaluable source of practical reference data. Accessible, authoritative, and assuming undergraduate familiarity with vectors, electromagnetism and quantum mechanics, this textbook is well suited to graduate courses. Emphasis is placed on practical calculations and numerical magnitudes - from nanoscale to astronomical scale - focussing on modern applications, including permanent magnet structures and spin electronic devices. Each self-contained chapter begins with a summary, and ends with exercises and further reading. The book is thoroughly illustrated with over 600 figures to help convey concepts and explain ideas clearly. Easily digestible tables and data sheets provide a wealth of useful information on magnetic properties. The thirty-eight principal magnetic materials, and many more related compounds, are treated in detail.
Download or read book Principles of Nanomagnetism written by Alberto P. Guimarães and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-10 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of this book on nanomagnetism presents the basics and latest studies of low-dimensional magnetic nano-objects. It highlights the intriguing properties of nanomagnetic objects, such as thin films, nanoparticles, nanowires, nanotubes, nanodisks and nanorings as well as novel phenomena like spin currents. It also describes how nanomagnetism was an important factor in the rapid evolution of high-density magnetic recording and is developing into a decisive element of spintronics. Further, it presents a number of biomedical applications. With exercises and solutions, it serves as a graduate textbook.
Download or read book Quantum Mechanics What is wrong with it and how to fix it written by Janeen Hunt and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains much of the lost history of the development of quantum mechanics. The theory is controversial. This book explains why by going to the very foundations of Quantum Mechanics directly from the mouths of its inventors, the honored and famous scientists. It is a telling exposé and a serious but almost irreverent treatment of atomic science that tacitly suggests outright fraud, blind denial of facts, and overly enthusiastic adoption of slanted interpretations of data. Although written for those familiar with quantum mechanics, it is not written as a technical article, but informally for the educated reader. It is hard-hitting and controversial, but researched and well-referenced with over 200 quotations from 97 sources. Using historical quotations by the founders of QM, this book suggests that a different theory of the atom can be and should have been introduced without resorting to assumptions that defy evidence and deny rationality, but rather relying on existing empirical data.
Download or read book Magnetic Cell Separation written by and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-08-31 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cell separation is at the core of current methods in experimental biology and medicine. Its importance is illustrated by the large number of physical and biochemical principles that have been evaluated for application to cell separation. The development of cell separation methods is driven by the needs of biological and medical research, and the ever-increasing demands for sensitivity, selectivity, yield, timeliness and economy of the process. The interdisciplinary nature of research in this area and the volume of information available in research publications and conferences necessitates a basic description of the fundamental processes involved in magnetic cell separation that may help the user in navigating this wealth of information available online and in scientific publications. This book will appeal to researchers in many areas utilizing this technique, including those working in cell biology, clinical research, inorganic chemistry, biochemistry, chemical engineering, materials science, physics and electrical engineering. Provides examples of how to calculate the volume magnetic susceptibility, a fundamental quantity for calculating the magnetic force acting on a cell, from various types of magnetic susceptibilities available in literature Introduces the elements of magnetostatics as they apply to cell magnetization and the magnetization of magnetic micro- and nano- particles used for cell separation Describes the parameters used to determine cell magnetophoresis
