Overview: "Meteoric phenomena" is the accepted term for the complex of physi­ cal phenomena that accompany the entry of meteoric bodies into the at­ mosphere of the earth (or of any planet). "Meteoric bodies" are usually defined as cosmic bodies observed by optical or radar techniques, when they enter the atmosphere. The limiting sensitivity of present-day radar equipment makes it possible to record meteors of up to stellar magnitude +14, while the most brilliant bolides may reach magnitude -19. On a mass 7 7 scale this corresponds approximately to a range of 10- to 10 g. How­ ever, met~or ast

Overview: Our intention in this collection is to provide, largely through original writings, an ex­ tended account of pi from the dawn of mathematical time to the present. The story of pi reflects the most seminal, the most serious, and sometimes the most whimsical aspects of mathematics. A surprising amount of the most important mathematics and a signifi­ cant number of the most important mathematicians have contributed to its unfolding­ directly or otherwise. Pi is one of the few mathematical concepts whose mention evokes a response of recog­ nition and interest in those not concerned profes

Overview: New developments in the application of radiation to medicine are occurring so rapidly that this is possibly the fastest growing branch of medicine today. In the past decade alone, we have seen enormous progress made in tech­ niques used both for the diagnosis of disease, such as computerized tomography, digital radiography, ultrasonography, computerized nuclear medicine scanning, and nuclear magnetic resonance imaging, and for its treatment, such as the radiotherapeutic utilization of high-LET radiations, and the widespread application of computers to perform elegant dosimetry calcul

Overview: Gezielt lernen, was in den IHK-Prüfungen verlangt wird!Die IHK-Prüfung der Bilanzbuchhalter zählt zu den anspruchvollsten Prüfungen, die von der IHK abgenommen werden. Strenge Zugangsvoraussetzungen wie einen kaufmännischen Abschluss und mehrere Jahre Berufserfahrung im Bereich Controlling/Rechnungswesen lassen erwarten, dass dem Prüfungserfolg bei guter und systematischer Vorbereitung nichts im Wege steht. Dennoch kommt es zu außeror­ dentlich hohen Durchfallquoten in dieser Prüfung. Die Ursache liegt zum einen an den hohen fachtheoretischen Anforderungen in den insgesamt sieben Prü

Overview: By now, Scheme is a well-established programming language and is finding increasing popularity in programming courses for undergraduates. Its expressive capabilities are matched by a simplicity of language and ease-of-use which have made its adherents disciples! This textbook provides a comprehensive first course in Scheme and covers all of its major features: abstraction, functional programming, data types, recursion, and semantic programming. Although the primary goal of this text is to teach students to program in Scheme, it will be suitable for any student studying a general prog
