 Particle Physics (Manchester Physics Series)Particle physics is the study of the fundamental constituents of matter and their interactions. However, which particles are regarded as fundamental has changed with time as physicists’ knowledge has improved. Modern theory – called the standard model – attempts to explain all the phenomena of particle physics in terms of the... |  |  The Communications Facility Design Handbook (Electronics Handbook Series)The responsibilities of the system engineer are many and varied, especially as they relate to facility design and construction. Successful execution of these responsibilities requires an understanding of the underlying technologies, the applicable quality standards, and the proper methods for achieving them. The Communications Facility Design... |  |  Robotics and Automation HandbookRobots are machines that have interested the general population throughout history. In general, they are machines or devices that operate automatically or by remote control. Clearly people have wanted to use such equipment since simple devices were developed. The word robot itself comes from Czech robota, “servitude, forced labor,” and... |
