You are a physicist investigating the properties of semiconductors. The electrical properties of one specimen are not quite like the others that you’ve studied. What makes this specimen different?You are a physician treating a patient who, because of a severe calcium deficiency, has been suffering from osteoporosis. Are you on the right track with your treatment?You are an analytical chemist working for a plastics manufacturer. You have been asked by the plant superintendent to determine why some of the plastic coming from the plant has been discolored.You are a curator working with the ancient coin collection in a large museum. A donor has just given the museum a group of 50 gold coins presumably about 1500 years old. Are they genuine?You are a scientist working in the criminology laboratory of a large metropolitan city. A detective brings you a minute sample of paint taken from the clothing of a hit-and-run victim. He has a suspect whose automobile paint seems to match that sample. Can you determine his guilt or innocence?Neutron activation analysis can be used to solve each of these problems and many more.

    The book discusses constituent quarks, diquarks, the massive effective gluons and the problem of scalar isoscalar mesons. The quark-gluonium classification of meson states is also given. Experimentally observed properties of hadrons are presented together with the corresponding theoretical interpretation in the framework of the composite hadron structure. ...

    Calabi-Yau spaces are complex spaces with a vanishing first Chern class, or equivalently, with trivial canonical bundle (canonical class). They are used to construct possibly realistic (super)string models and are thus being studied vigorously in the recent physics literature.In the main part of the Book, collected and reviewed are relevant results on (1) several major techniqu...

    There are a number of unanswered questions which indicate that the Standard Model, successful as it is, cannot be the entire story. One solution to answering these questions is that the Standard Model is an effective low-energy theory of structure hopefully nearby in its energy scale in much the same way that a model of strong interactions among nucleons mediated by pions is an...
