Soft cover. Zustand: New. 33 pages : 24 cm. In 2005 the Birkeland Lecture was included in a one day seminar organized as part of the celebration of Hydro's (and Yara's) 100 years anniversary. Apart from this anniversary, 2005 was also a special year since it was decreed as the World Year of Physics by the United Nations, and Kristian Birkeland was honored by the Norwegian Committee to represent Norwegian physics and the Norwegian physicists in this year. Hence the seminar was also a celebration of the person Kristian Birkeland, who probably is the internationally best known Norwegian physicist. The topic for the seminar was Kristian Birkeland as scientist, innovator and industry founder, and Dr. William J. Burke was invited to speak about Kristian Birkeland's message from the Sun - its meaning then and now.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Over the past 10-20 years there has been an explosion of work on the disturbance of motor control that is manifested as 'spasticity.' This work has been based on new insights from animal experiments into the basis of normal motor control and the development of experimental techniques that could be used in patients with neurological disturbances. For this reason, on the initiative of Alfred Thilmann, the editors of this volume organized a workshop on spasticity, held in Essen, Germany, in November, 1992. The intention of the meeting was to bring together leading scientists in an atmosphere that would generate discussion and hopefully consensus and ideas for future work. The attendance was restricted and deliberately selective, with a mix of basic scientists, clinical scientists and practicing clinicians. The product of their presentations and deliberations is this volume. The book is organized in the same sequence as the workshop, so that the discussion sessions could be summarized by the appropriate chairman.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This biography summarizes the seminal contributions to auroral and space science of Carl Størmer (1874 - 1957). He was the first to develop precise photographic methods to calculate heights and morphologies of diverse auroral forms during four solar cycles. Størmer independently devised numerical techniques to determine the trajectories of high-energy charged particles allowed and forbidden in the Earth's magnetic field. His theoretical analyses explained cosmic ray access to the upper atmosphere, 20 years before they were identified by other scientists. Størmer's crowning achievement, 'The Polar Aurora,' published when he was 81 years old, stands to this day as a regularly cited guide in graduate-level courses on space physics. The authors present the life of this prodigious scientist in relation to the cultural life of early 20th century in Norway and to the development of the space sciences in the post-Sputnik era.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - At the beginning of the 20th century, Kristian Birkeland (1867-1917), a Norwegian scientist of insatiable curiosity, addressed questions that had vexed European scientists for centuries. Why do the northern lights appear overhead when the earth's magnetic field is disturbed How are magnetic storms connected to disturbances on the sun To answer these questions Birkeland interpreted his advance laboratory simulations and daring campaigns in the Arctic wilderness in the light of Maxwell's newly discovered laws of electricity and magnetism. Birkeland's ideas were dismissed for decades, only to be vindicated when satellites could fly above the earth's atmosphere. Faced with depleting stocks of Chilean saltpeter and the consequent prospect of mass starvation, Birkeland showed his practical side, inventing the first industrial scale method to extract nitrogen-based fertilizers from the air. Norsk Hydro, one of modern Norway's largest industries, stands as a living tribute to his genius. Hoping to demonstrate what we now call the solar wind, Birkeland moved to Egypt in 1913. Isolated from his friends by the Great War, he yearned to celebrate his 50th birthday in Norway. The only safe passage home, via the Far East, brought him to Tokyo, where he passed away in the late spring of 1917.…
