A concise, balanced overview of the most important topics in experimental particle physics of the past forty years is presented in this comprehensive study. Beginning with a review of particle physics and electromagnetic and nuclear interactions, the book continues with a discussion of three nearly universal aspects of particle physics experiments: beams, targets and fast electrons. The second part of the text details the properties of various types of particle detectors, such as scintillation and Cerenkov counters, proportional and drift chambers, sampling calorimeters, and special detectors. The last chapter demonstrates how the various aspects of the previous chapters can be integrated in an experimental system. There are numerous references to the research literature, in addition to examples and workable problems.
Radiowave Propagation by Jacques Lavergnat, ISBN 047149027X
Radio Wave Propagation provides an introduction to the study of the free propagation of electromagnetic waves. A good understanding of the propagation mechanisms is essential for the communications engineer and this text offers the necessary background knowledge. It emphasises the methods of establishing propagation models and covers the three basic elements: the nature of effective modelling, electromagnetism effects, and propagation devices.
Features include:
Numerous problems and exercises accompanied by detailed solutions
Discussion of the impact of this theory on communication systems such as mobile radio and satellite links
Details the main aspects of propagation, measurements and applications.
Essential reading for communications engineers, electronic engineers and undergraduate and postgraduate students of telecommunications, electronic engineering and applied physics.
