X Rays

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'X Rays' is an authoritative and comprehensive examination of the science, theory, and practical application of Roentgen rays. Written by G.W.C. Kaye, a leading authority at the National Physical Laboratory, this fourth edition captures the significant advancements made in the field of radiation physics during the early twentieth century.The work meticulously covers the fundamental properties of cathode rays, the mechanics of X-ray production, and the design and operation of vacuum tubes and high-voltage equipment. It explores critical scientific milestones, including the diffraction of X-rays by crystals and the development of X-ray spectroscopy, which revolutionized the understanding of atomic structure. Beyond theoretical physics, the text provides insights into the burgeoning practical uses of X-rays in medical diagnosis and industrial testing.Written with both the student and the practitioner in mind, 'X Rays' serves as a vital historical record of experimental physics. It details the techniques for measuring radiation intensity and wavelength, offering a thorough look at the instrumentation that defined an era of scientific discovery. This volume remains a significant resource for those interested in the history of science, the evolution of medical imaging, and the foundational principles of radiological physics.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
