Reign of Terror: Ivan IV
Ruslan Grigor'evitch Skrynnikov unfolds the drama of terror under Ivan the Terrible and his oprichnina. He uses new kinds of evidence paying close attention to primary sources. The conflicts between Ivan and the gentry, the crushing of Novgorod autonomy, the ways in which Ivan interpreted his authority and sought to create an alternative base of power in a loyal body of henchmen-followers known as the oprichnina, the alienation of different groups in society from the government, the impoverishment and weakening of whole regions leading to the Time of Troubles are among the themes that Skrynnikov develops. The details of Ivan’s confrontations with those he perceived as opponents, the forms of execution he inflicted on his enemies, the atmosphere of peril and suspicion that he created justify the description of his reign as one of terror, relevant of course to later periods of history with obvious echoes of the Stalinist period.
Advanced Materials in Industrial and Environmental Engineering
Selected, peer-reviewed papers from the Conference Nanophysics and Nanomaterials (NaN), on November 27-28, 2019, St. Petersburg, Russia.
New Materials
"This book covers a wide field of theoretical and experimental investigations of organic and inorganic systems: preparation methods, functional properties characterization and modification and practical applications. The first section includes studies in carbon structures of reduced dimensionality. Covered topics are: thermodynamic modeling of the behavior of fullerenes at heating in Argon, studying carbon nanotubes by X-ray diffraction, modelling of oscillating systems by cognitive digital systems. The number of chapters describes the structural investigations of a wide variety of materials such as different sorts of steel in grained modification for mining equipment, elements of rock-break...
Applied Aspects of Nanophysics and Nano-engineering
This volume of a book Applied Aspects of Nanophysics and Nano-engineering is partially composed of short communications proceedings of international symposium Nanophysics and nano-engineering 2017 (venue: Mining university), and full-sized chapters, covering selected topics in depth. A variety of phenomena are described in this book. Smart nanostructured coatings, methods of synthesis based on both top to bottom (plasma deposition, remote methods) and bottom to top approaches are covered, as well as modeling approaches and analytical techniques. As before, ecological issues are highly addressed, such as materials for water purification and pollution prevention. Permanent interest in fulleren...
Smart Nanocomposite's Letters
This Digest presents new studies in the fast growing area of smart materials, in particular, composite nanostructured materials. It focuses on the physics and physical chemistry of surfaces, interfaces, thin films and coatings, nanoparticles and other nanostructures, as well as on their new and smart applications. Original approaches in fabrication and applications of nanostructured materials will get special attention. Nanostructured ceramics, alloys, various nanocarbon forms (nanotubes, fullerenes, graphene) and their composites used in sensors (including single molecule sensing) and actuators, artificial metabolism, drug delivery, selective membranes, fuel cells, energy storage, and photovoltaics are just a few examples of new classes of materials and applications that are within the scope of the Digest. It features the results of interdisciplinary research from universities, national labs, and privately owned companies.
