Progress in Ultrafast Intense Laser Science XII
This volume covers a broad range of topics focusing on atoms, molecules, and clusters interacting in intense laser field, laser induced filamentation, and laser plasma interaction and application. The PUILS series delivers up-to-date reviews of progress in Ultrafast Intense Laser Science, a newly emerging interdisciplinary research field spanning atomic and molecular physics, molecular science, and optical science, which has been stimulated by the recent developments in ultrafast laser technologies. Each volume compiles peer-reviewed articles authored by researchers at the forefront of each their own subfields of UILS. Every chapter opens with an overview of the topics to be discussed, so that researchers unfamiliar to the subfield, as well as graduate students, can grasp the importance and attractions of the research topic at hand; these are followed by reports of cutting-edge discoveries.
Laser-Driven Sources of High Energy Particles and Radiation
This volume presents a selection of articles based on inspiring lectures held at the “Capri” Advanced Summer School, an original event conceived and promoted by Leonida Antonio Gizzi and Ralph Assmann that focuses on novel schemes for plasma-based particle acceleration and radiation sources, and which brings together researchers from the conventional accelerator community and from the high-intensity laser-matter interaction research fields. Training in these fields is highly relevant for ultra-intense lasers and applications, which have enjoyed dramatic growth following the development of major European infrastructures like the Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI) and the EuPRAXIA project. The articles preserve the tutorial character of the lectures and reflect the latest advances in their respective fields. The volume is mainly intended for PhD students and young researchers getting started in this area, but also for scientists from other fields who are interested in the latest developments. The content will also appeal to radiobiologists and medical physicists, as it includes contributions on potential applications of laser-based particle accelerators.
Laser-Driven Particle Acceleration Towards Radiobiology and Medicine
This book deals with the new method of laser-driven acceleration for application to radiation biophysics and medicine. It provides multidisciplinary contributions from world leading scientist in order to assess the state of the art of innovative tools for radiation biology research and medical applications of ionizing radiation. The book contains insightful contributions on highly topical aspects of spatio-temporal radiation biophysics, evolving over several orders of magnitude, typically from femtosecond and sub-micrometer scales. Particular attention is devoted to the emerging technology of laser-driven particle accelerators and their application to spatio-temporal radiation biology and medical physics, customization of non-conventional and selective radiotherapy and optimized radioprotection protocols.
Roman Pottery and Glass Manufactures: Production and Trade in the Adriatic Region and Beyond
32 papers consider issues of pottery production in the wider Adriatic area during Roman times, in particular relation to landscape and communication features, ceramic building materials, as well as general studies on ceramic production, pottery and glass finds.
Progress in Ultrafast Intense Laser Science
This volume covers a range of topics from this interdisciplinary field, focusing on coherent responses of gaseous and condensed matter to ultrashort intense laser pulses, propagation of intense laser pulses, and laser-plasma interaction and its applications.
Handbook of X-ray Imaging
Containing chapter contributions from over 130 experts, this unique publication is the first handbook dedicated to the physics and technology of X-ray imaging, offering extensive coverage of the field. This highly comprehensive work is edited by one of the world’s leading experts in X-ray imaging physics and technology and has been created with guidance from a Scientific Board containing respected and renowned scientists from around the world. The book's scope includes 2D and 3D X-ray imaging techniques from soft-X-ray to megavoltage energies, including computed tomography, fluoroscopy, dental imaging and small animal imaging, with several chapters dedicated to breast imaging techniques. 2...
Superstrong Fields in Plasma
This book follows from the 3rd International Conference on Superstrong Fields in Plasmas, which addressed new developments in laser technology, and the theoretical exploration of completely new laser-matter interaction regimes. Topics include: atomic and molecular dynamics in strong fields, high harmonic generation, coherent X-ray radiation, nonlinear plasma dynamics and relativistic optics, laser-based electron and ion acceleration, inertial confinement fusion and fast ignition, laboratory astrophysics, and more.
La Última casa
Desde la antigüedad, la tumba como monumento funerario representa la casa del muerto, entendida como última morada. Es también un reflejo de las creencias y la actitud del hombre ante la muerte. A pesar de vivir en una época que trata a la muerte con tanta ocultación, la arquitectura del siglo XX no ha dejado de interesarse por el tema y ha contribuido con significativas aportaciones al lenguaje de la arquitectura funeraria. La última casa recoge una selección de 60 tumbas, intervenciones de pequeña escala poco divulgadas, que son ejemplo de la amplia variedad de propuestas realizadas por arquitectos, desde principios de siglo hasta la actualidad. Se muestran tumbas realizadas por algunos de los maestros de la arquitectura del siglo XX, por arquitectos contemporáneos de consolidado prestigio y por jóvenes arquitectos del actual panorama internacional. El texto introductorio, a cargo del arquitecto Pedro Azara, realiza un exhaustivo recorrido por la historia de la tumba desde la antigüedad hasta nuestros días.
