Mössbauer Spectroscopy Applied to Magnetism and Materials Science


Free Download Mössbauer Spectroscopy Applied to Magnetism and Materials Science By W. Meisel (auth.), Gary J. Long, Fernande Grandjean (eds.)
1996 | 361 Pages | ISBN: 1489917659 | PDF | 13 MB
This book represents Volume 2 in a series on the use of Mossbauer spectroscopy in the study of magnetism and materials. However, the perceptive reader will notice some differences from Volume 1. Specifically, in order to market the book at a more affordable price for most universities and research laboratories, the book has been prepared in camera ready format The editors and the authors agreed to do this because there is a demand for such a book in the Mossbauer community. This format has placed an extra burden on the editors and the authors and we hope we have overcome all the difficulties generated by the transfer of files between different computers. In order to make the book more attractive to materials scientists who are not experts in Mossbauer spectroscopy, this volume is particularly oriented towards the study of materials by Mossbauer spectroscopy and related complementary techniques, such as neutron scattering and a variety of surface scattering techniques. The authors of this volume can be proud of the high quality professional effort they have devoted to clearly presenting their specific topics. As a result we very much enjoyed working with the authors on this volume. We hope that their effort will help to educate the next generation of Mossbauer effect spectroscopists, a generation which will face the challenge of maintaining equally high scientific and professional standards in their research work.

Magnetism A Supramolecular Function


Free Download Magnetism: A Supramolecular Function By J.-C. Chambron, C. O. Dietrich-Buchecker (auth.), Pr Olivier Kahn (eds.)
1996 | 660 Pages | ISBN: 9048147301 | PDF | 24 MB
Molecular magnetism is a new field of research dealing with the synthesis and study of the physical properties of molecular assemblies involving open-shell units. It is essentially interdisciplinary, joining together organic, organometallic and inorganic chemists, as well as theoreticians, physicists and materials scientists.At the core of research into molecular magnetism lie design and synthesis of new molecular assemblies exhibiting bulk properties such as long-range magnetic ordering or bistability with an hysteresis effect, which confers a memory effect on the system. In such terms, magnetism may be considered a supramolecular function.The first eight contributions to this volume present the state of the art in organic supramolecular chemistry, emphasising interlocked systems and molecular trees. The following six articles are devoted to molecular materials constructed from organic radicals and transition metal units. Molecular bistability is then focused on, followed by metal-organic and coordination magnetic materials. A new approach to nano-sized particles closes the work.

English | ISBN: 0197769330 | 2024 | 272 pages | PDF | 7 MB
This is an analytical history of the role Tigrinya-speakers have played and are still playing in the history of Ethiopia and Eritrea, from Tigray’s very ancient incipience to the origins of today’s tragically fratricidal war.

A History of Magnetism in Human Civilisation Magnetism on the Long Arc of Time


Free Download Indrajit G. Roy, "A History of Magnetism in Human Civilisation: Magnetism on the Long Arc of Time"
English | ISBN: 1527566080 | 2024 | 700 pages | PDF | 12 MB
Humans, over many millennia, have been intrigued with magnetism and continuously revealing its nature and association with other objects, both animate and inanimate. Started with reverence for its mystic power, the beautiful minds soon find the means to harness it. This book is an omnibus that helps one travel through time over many millennia until today while giving glimpses of human achievements in the Odyssey of human civilisation. This is a scientific essay. Nevertheless, it offers a range of flavours, such as the history of science, philosophy, social construct, the early scientific revolution, the impact of the Industrial Revolution, the growth of modern science, and discussion on scientific phenomena with no less scientific rigour, while remaining simple and intelligible. The book will be food for academic minds and a pleasant experience for general readers.

Electronic Structure and Magnetism of Complex Materials


Free Download Electronic Structure and Magnetism of Complex Materials by David J. Singh, Dimitrios A. Papaconstantopoulos
English | PDF | 2003 | 337 Pages | ISBN : 3540433821 | 33.1 MB
Recent developments in electronic structure theory have led to a new understanding of magnetic materials at the microscopic level. This enables a truly first-principles approach to investigations of technologically important magnetic materials. Among these advances have been practical schemes for handling non-collinear magnetic systems, including relativity, understanding of the origins and role of orbital magnetism within band structure formalisms, density functional approaches for magnons and low-lying spin excitations, understanding of the interplay of orbital, spin and lattice orderings in complex oxides, transport theories for layered systems, and the theory of magnetic interactions in doped semiconductors. The book covers these recent developments with review articles by some of the main originators of these advances.

Guide to Electricity and Magnetism


Free Download Guide to Electricity and Magnetism: Using Mathematica for Calculations and Visualizations
English | 2024 | ISBN: 1032640855 | 232 Pages | PDF (True) | 8 MB
This is a "how to guide" for a calculus-based introductory course in electricity and magnetism. Students taking the subject at an intermediate or advanced level may also find it to be a useful reference. The calculations are performed in Mathematica, and stress graphical visualization, units, and numerical answers. The techniques show the student how to learn the physics without being hung up on the math. There is a continuing movement to introduce more advanced computational methods into lower-level physics courses. Mathematica is a unique tool in that code is written as "human readable" much like one writes a traditional equation on the board.

Methods in the Quantum Theory of Magnetism


Free Download Methods in the Quantum Theory of Magnetism by Sergei Vladimirovich Tyablikov
English | PDF | 1967 | 361 Pages | ISBN : 1489970916 | 23.3 MB
Magnetic properties are exhibited to a greater or lesser ex- tent by all substances. Among solids, we can distinguish a group of magnetic substances whose magnetic properties are particular- ly pronounced: ferromagnets, ferrimagnets, and antiferromag- nets. The present treatment deals with some of the problems aris- ing in the theory of the magnetic phenomena in such substances. We shall call the theory of phenomena in strongly magnetic sub- stances the theory of strong magnetism or, simply, the theory of magnetism, because the weakly magnetic substances (paramagnets and diamagnets) will not be considered. The emphasis is on the methods giving general solutions and on the features character- istic of magnetic problems. The microscopic approach is used throughout.
