Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book describes the fundamental concepts underlying radiation-induced failure mechanisms in electronic components operating in harsh environments, such as in space missions or in particle accelerators. In addition to providing an extensive overview of the dynamics and composition of different radiation environments, the authors discuss the failure mechanisms, known as single-event effects (SEEs), and dedicated failure modeling and prediction methodologies. Additionally, novel radiation-hardening-by-design (RHBD) techniques at physical layout and circuit levels are described.Readers who are newcomers to this field will learn the fundamental concepts of particle interaction physics and electronics hardening design, starting from the composition and dynamics of radiation environments and their effects on electronics, to the qualification and hardening of components. Experienced readers will enjoy the comprehensive discussion of the state-of-the-art in modeling, simulation, and analysis of radiation effects developed in the recent years, especially the outcome of the recent European project, RADSAGA.Describes both the fundamental concepts underlying radiation effects in electronics and state-of-the-art hardening methodologiesAddresses failure mechanisms, known as single-event effects (SEEs), and dedicated failure modeling and prediction methodologiesReveals novel radiation-hardening-by-design (RHBD) techniques at physical layout and circuit levelsOffers readers the first book in which particle accelerator applications will be extensively included in the radiation effects contextThis is an open access book. 141 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This open-access book celebrates fifty years of the quest to understand quark-gluon plasma (QGP), a form of extremely hot and dense matter that existed in the first microseconds after the Big Bang and may still play a role today in the interiors of neutron stars. Over the past decades, scientists have developed the capability to recreate this extreme state of matter under laboratory conditions through high-energy collisions of heavy atomic nuclei in powerful particle accelerators. These experiments probe the fundamental predictions of quantum chromodynamics - the theory of the strong interaction that binds quarks and gluons into protons, neutrons, and ultimately all atomic nuclei.The book comprises two parts. The first presents personal reflections by some of the leading scientists who have shaped the field since its early years. The second offers topical reviews that trace the evolution of both theoretical understanding and experimental programs aimed at identifying and characterizing QGP signatures. It provides historical reviews of developments in experimental programs at leading laboratories worldwide, including Brookhaven National Laboratory and CERN, while highlighting future directions in experimental programs at major laboratories.Overall, this volume takes readers on a reflective and commemorative journey through five decades of progress in the study of quark-gluon plasma: from its theoretical conceptualization to detailed investigations at dedicated experimental facilities, while offering a forward-looking view of this dynamic area of modern physics. 527 pp. Englisch.…
