 Planning Fiber Optics NetworksThe purpose of this book is to help the reader understand the details in planning and implementing fiber optic networks.
Both short-reach and long-haul transmission links are discussed. All major fiber planning parameters are reviewed with appropriate background theory and practical design calculations. Guidelines are provided for... | | An Introduction To Optoelectronic Sensors (Series in Optics and Photonics)This invaluable book offers a comprehensive overview of the technologies and applications of optoelectronic sensors. Based on the R&D experience of more than 70 engineers and scientists, highly representative of the Italian academic and industrial community in this area, this book provides a broad and accurate description of the... | | Great Feuds in Mathematics: Ten of the Liveliest Disputes EverMathematical disputes offer indisputable proof that great mathematical minds are calculating in more ways than one. Fueled by greed, jealousy, ambition, and ego, they have plots worthy of a soap opera, pitting brother against brother, father against son, and student against mentor.
In the sixteenth century, Cardano and Tartaglia battled... |

Geometric Problems on Maxima and MinimaQuestions of maxima and minima have great practical significance, with applications to physics, engineering, and economics; they have also given rise to theoretical advances, notably in calculus and optimization. Indeed, while most texts view the study of extrema within the context of calculus, this carefully constructed problem book takes a... | | Semi-Classical Analysis For Nonlinear Schrodinger EquationsThese lecture notes review recent results on the high-frequency analysis of nonlinear SchrÐÑжdinger equations in the presence of an external potential. The book consists of two relatively independent parts: WKB analysis, and caustic crossing. In the first part, the basic linear WKB theory is constructed and then extended to the... | | |

The Design of Plastic Optical Systems (SPIE Tutorial Text Vol. TT80)
Many items we use in our daily lives-the traffic signals, motion sensors, fingerprint readers, cell phone cameras, bar code scanners, and DVD players-rely upon plastic optical systems to perform. Consequently, there is a growing need for individuals who are knowledgeable in the design, development, and production of such systems.

Fundamentals of Light Microscopy and Electronic Imaging
Douglas B. Murphy
Over the last decade, advances in science and technology have profoundly changed the face of light microscopy. Research scientists need to learn new skills in order to use a modern research microscope–skills such as how to align microscope... | | Stellar Polarimetry
To many astrophysicists, Stellar P larimetry is a Cinderella subject considered as being so insignificant and, at the same time, being so esoteric as to be ignored and left alone. Others have followed and developed the theme with an enthusiastic passion. There can be no doubt, however, that the study of polarization within Astronomy has a... |
