Hardback. Condition: Fair. In 1998 Thomas Hales dramatically announced the solution of a problem that has long teased eminent mathematicians: what is the densest possible arrangement of identical spheres? The Pursuit of Perfect Packing recounts the story of this problem and many others that have to do with packing things together. The examples are taken from mathematics, physics, biology, and engineering, including the arrangement of soap bubbles in foam, atoms in a crystal, the architecture of the bee's honeycomb, and the structure of the Giant's Causeway. Using an informal style and with key references, the book also includes brief accounts of the lives of many of the scientists who devoted themselves to problems of packing over many centuries, together with wry comments on their efforts. It is an entertaining introduction to the field for both specialists and the more general public.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. An investigation into optical techniques for extracting surface and interface information with a resolution of less than a single atomic layer. These techniques have been widely applied to semiconductor surfaces and interfaces, and include polarised reflection techniques such as reflection anisotropy spectroscopy and spectroscopic ellipsometry, Raman scattering, and optical second harmonic and sum frequency generation. Epitoptics' potential in the area of growth monitoring, and in situ monitoring of semiconductor growth with submonolayer sensitivity has been demonstrated in growth reactors under normal operating conditions. The book emphasizes studies of submonolayer growth on semiconductor surfaces. Chapters include: Spectroscopic Ellipsometry Reflection Difference Techniques Raman Spectroscopy Photoluminescence Spectroscopy On the Theory of Second Harmonic Generation Second Harmonic and Sum Frequency Generation Conclusions Hardback, pp230.…
