| Title | The Arecibo Observatory: A History of Innovation and Discovery |
| Author(s) | Campbell, Donald |
| Publication | Cham, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Switzerland, 2024. |
| Description | XIV, 377 p. 210 illus., 91 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Written by one of its former Directors, this book presents a historical account of the famous Arecibo Observatory and its 305-meter radio astronomical telescope, widely known for its groundbreaking scientific discoveries and starring role in the James Bond movie, Golden Eye. The story details the planning, funding and construction of the telescope; the people who masterminded and contributed to the project; and the involvement of the US Department of Defense in funding the construction. It also includes the seminal scientific achievements in the three research areas to which the telescope contributed, ionospheric physics, planetary science and radio astronomy. The book continues through later upgrades made to the facility, showing how the Arecibo telescope was arguably the world???s most versatile and productive radio science instrument for over 50 years. This historical account will fascinate astronomers and historians of science, serving as a valuable contribution to the history of 20th century astronomy |

| Title | Archaeoastronomy : Introduction to the Science of Stars and Stones |
| Author(s) | Magli, Giulio |
| Publication | Cham, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Switzerland, 2024. |
| Description | XIII, 316 p. 201 illus., 142 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book provides the first comprehensive, easy-to-read, and up-to-date account of the fascinating discipline of archaeoastronomy, in which the relationship between ancient constructions and the sky is studied to gain a better understanding of the ideas of the architects of the past and their religious and symbolic worlds. The book is divided into three sections. The first section discusses in detail the fundamentals of archaeoastronomy, including the celestial coordinates, the apparent motion of the sun, moon, stars, and planets, observation of celestial bodies at the horizon, the use of astronomical software in archaeoastronomy, and current methods for making and analyzing measurements . The second part explores the past relations between astronomy and people, power, the afterworld, architecture, and landscape The final section reviews what archaeoastronomy can now tell us about the nature and purpose of such sites and structures as Stonehenge, the Pyramids of Giza, Chichen Itza, the Angkor Temples, the Campus Martius, Machu Picchu and the Valley of the Temples of Agrigento. Additionally, it provides a set of exercises that can be performed using non-commercial free software, e.g., Google Earth and Stellarium, and that will equip readers to conduct their research. This book is an ideal introduction to what has become a wide-ranging multidisciplinary science. This newly revised edition includes the most recent research on Stonehenge, ancient Japan, and other sites worldwide. |

| Title | Galileo and Satellite Navigation |
| Author(s) | De Angelis, Alessandro |
| Publication | Cham, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Switzerland, 2024. |
| Description | IX, 73 p. 17 illus., 9 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book explores the Galilean method for geolocation, placing it in historical and astronomical context. It bridges the techniques developed by the Greeks and medieval astronomers with later innovations like precision clocks, 20th-century wireless technology, and space-based navigation. The primary source is the twenty-volume National Edition of the Works of Galileo (published 1890-1909 by Antonio Favaro) and the update edited by Michele Camerota and Patrizia Ruffo in 2019, which includes previously unpublished documents on Galileo's negotiations with the Spanish government for selling his longitude-determining method at sea. This book inspired the 2024 "International Research Day in the World," focused on geolocation, organized by the Italian Permanent Delegation to International Organizations in Paris. In collaboration with Museo Galileo in Florence and Sorbonne Universit??, the event featured the exhibition ???Galileo and Satellite Navigation,??? showcased at the Pierre et Marie Curie Campus in Paris (June 13-28, 2024), and later at the Italian Institutes of Culture in Prague and Amsterdam, and at the Perimeter Institute in Waterloo, Canada |

| Publication | Singapore, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Singapore, 2024. |
| Description | VI, 257 p. 70 illus., 59 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book highlights the importance of surface nanomaterials for analytical applications and diagnostics. As widely been stated, surface is the base for all downstream analytical applications and the incorporation of additional material to form a hybrid makes a drastic improvement in the performance of the surfaces. Even though, metallic hybrid materials play a pivotal role, non-metallic and metallic hybrid materials yield new avenues. Characterization of these hybrid nanomaterials provides a detailed insight, which attests to new inventions and novel materials. Hybrid nanomaterials are characterized by analytical systems and to generate the analytical systems hybrid materials are essential. The potential of hybrid nanomaterials exists within various interdisciplinary sciences including medicine, which this book presents |

| Title | High Energy Physics : A Level and Transition Approach |
| Author(s) | Khaneja, Navin |
| Publication | Cham, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Switzerland, 2024. |
| Description | XIII, 115 p. 59 illus., 13 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book offers a comprehensive exploration of the phenomenology surrounding high-energy particle interactions. When particles possess kinetic energy surpassing their rest energy, remarkable phenomena occur. Colliding particles at such high energies can lead to the creation of entirely new particles, illuminating the intricate workings of the universe. Through vivid explanations, this book elucidates the intricate processes that unfold during particle collisions. From proton collisions yielding pions and kaons to electron-positron collisions producing muons, each collision unveils a tapestry of particle interactions. Central to these interactions is the exchange of photons, which come in various forms. Among them are electromagnetic (EM) photons, akin to the light photons that bind electrons to protons within atoms. Then, there are the heavy bosons responsible for beta decay, crucial mediators of weak interactions that govern the decay of particles such as muons and pions. Additionally, there exist photons that bind quarks within protons and neutrons, facilitating the strong force that holds atomic nuclei together. In 'High Energy Physics: A Level and Transition Approach,' we embark on a journey through the diverse array of particles and photons that orchestrate these interactions, shedding light on the fundamental forces shaping the fabric of our universe |

| Author(s) | Kumar, Upendra |
| Publication | Singapore, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Singapore, 2024. |
| Description | VI, 519 p. 148 illus., 115 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book highlights the history of electroceramics starting from synthesis using different routes of the solid solution to hybrid nanocomposites and its applications in different renewable energy, thermistor, actuators, thermoelectric, thermo-optic, sensor, and much more applications in electronic industry. In ceramic materials, the properties are controlled by doping and composition, but the grain size and the porosity of the sintered ceramics also play essential roles. The latter features depend on the method of fabrication. The end-user requirements define the optimum physical and chemical properties of ceramic materials. Therefore, the design and fabrication of ceramic components are multidisciplinary, spanning physical chemistry, metallurgy, and chemical engineering. Also included in this book are the various characterizing techniques to study the physical properties of ceramics |
