The magnetocaloric effect describes the change in temperature of a magnetic material...

Acoustic Diffusers and Absorbers: Theory, Design and Application

Taylor & Francis, 2004

Every book tells a story and there is a story behind every book. This story begins in 1980, in the conference room of the laboratory for the structure of matter at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) in Washington, DC, where Peter D’Antonio was employed as a diffraction physicist. Knowing Peter’s interest in music, a colleague handed...

Lasers in the Preservation of Cultural Heritage: Principles and Applications (Optics and Optoelectronics)

Taylor & Francis, 2006

The book … describes how laser parameters associated with cleaning are chosen and the physics involved in various surface ablation processes.
