Cobalt Blues describes the development of the first cobalt-60 unit in the United States and the man behind it, LeonardGrimmett. Conceptuall y conceived before World War II, it only became possible because of the development of nuclear reactors during the war. Although Grimmett conceived of and published his ideas first, the Canadians built the firstunits because of the capability of their rea ctor to produce more suitable cobalt-60 sources. This book tells the story of how Grimmett and others came together at the time that the U S Atomic Energy Agency was pushing the use ofradioactivity in medicine.

Schieck Date: 2012 Publisher: Berlin, Heidelberg : Springer Berlin Heidelberg Size: 1 online resource Note: Springer e-book platform Note: Springer 2013 e-book collections Note: The measurement of spin-polarization observables in reactions of nuclei and particles is of great utility and advantage when the effects of single-spin sub-states are to be investigated. Indeed, the unpolarized differentialcross-section encompasses t he averaging over the spin states of the particles, and thus loses details of the interaction process. This introductory text combines, in a single volume, course-based lecture notes on spin physics and onpolarized-ion sources with the aim of providing a concise yet self-contained starting point for newcomers to the field, as well as for lecturers in search of suitable material for their courses and seminars. A significant part ofthe book is devoted to introducing the formal theorya description of polari zation and of nuclear reactions with polarized particles. The remainder of the text describes the physical basis of methods and devices necessary to performexperiments with polarized particles and to measure polarization and polarization effects in nuclea r reactions. The book concludes with a brief review of modern applications in medicine and fusion energy research. For reasons ofconciseness and of the pedagogical aims of this volume, examples are mainly taken from low-energy installations such as tandem Van de Graaff laboratories, although the emphasis of present research is shifting to medium- and high-energynuclear physics. Consequently, this volume is restricted to describing non-relativistic processes and focuses on the energy range from astrophysic al energies (a few keV) to tens of MeV. It is further restricted to polarimetry ofhadronic particles Note: Springer eBooks Contents: Dedication Preface Introduction Spin States and Spin Polarization Density Operator, Density Matrix Rotations, Angular Dependence of the Tensor Moments Description of Nuclear Reactions of Particles With Spin Partial Wave Expansion Charged particle Versus Neutron induced Reactions Sources and Targets of Polarized H and D Ions Polarization by Optical Pumping Production of Polarization by Other Methods Measurement of Polarization Observables Polarimetry Medical Applications Polarized Fusion Outlook List of References Index ISBN: 9783642242267 Series: e-books Series: SpringerLink (Online service) Series: Lecture Notes in Physics, 0075-8450 : v842 Series: Physics and Astronomy (Springer-11651) Keywords: Quantum theory , Nuclear physics Availability: Click here to see Library holdings or inquire at Circ Desk (x3401) Click to reserve this book Be sure to include your ID please.

These interactionsbetween physics and biolo gy form a two-way street with physics providing new tools and concepts for understanding life, while biological systems can yield new insights into the physics of complex systems. To address the challenges ofthis interdisciplinary area, The Physics of Pro teins: An Introduction to Biological Physics and Molecular Biophysics is divided into three interconnected sections. In Parts I and II, early chapters introduce the terminology anddescribe the main biological systems that physicists will encounter. Simila rities between biomolecules, glasses, and solids are stressed with an emphasis on the fundamental concepts of living systems. The central section (Parts III andIV) delves into the dynamics of complex systems. A main theme is the realization that biologica l systems, in particular proteins, do not exist in unique conformations but can assume a very large number of slightly different structures.This complexity is captured in the concept of a free energy landscape and leads to the conclusion that fluctuations are crucial for the functioning of biological systems. The final chapter of this section challenges the reader to applythese concepts to a problem that appears in the current literature. An extensive series of appendices (Part V) provide descriptions of the key physical tools and analytical methods that have proven powerful in the study of the physicsof proteins. The appendices are designed to be consulted throughout the section on protein dynamics without breaking the deductive flow of the logic in the central section of the book Note: Springer eBooks Contents: Part I: Biomolecules The Hierarchy of Living Things Information and Function Biomolecules, Spin Glasses, Glasses, and Solids Proteins Nucleic Acids The Genetic Code Lipids and Membranes Part II: Spatial Structure of Proteins: Measurementand Consequence Scattering of Photons for Imaging: Diffraction and Microscopy X Ray Diffraction Pulsed Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and Molecular Structure Determination in Solution The Secondary Structure Tertiary Structure of Proteins Myoglobin and Hemoglobin Part III: The Entergylandscape and Dynamics of Proteins ISBN: 9781441910448 Series: e-books Series: SpringerLink (Online service) Series: Biological and Medical Physics, Biomedical Engineering, 1618-7210 Series: Physics and Astronomy (Springer-11651) Keywords: Medicine , Biochemistry , Proteomics , Biomedical engineering Availability: Click here to see Library holdings or inquire at Circ Desk (x3401) Click to reserve this book Be sure to include your ID please.

They are specifically designed for applications that require high-quality ion beams interms of energy stabil ity and emittance at comparatively low energies (a few MeV). Their ability to accelerate virtually any kind of ion over a continuously tunable range of energies make them a highly versatile tool for investigationsin many research fields including, but not limited to, atomic and nuclear spectroscopy, heavy ion reactions, accelerator mass spectroscopy as well as ion-beam analysis and modification. The book is divided into three parts. The firstpart concisely introduces the field of accelerator technology an d techniques that emphasize their major modern applications. The second part treats the electrostatic accelerator per se: its construction and operational principles aswell as its maintenance. The third part covers all relevant applications in which elect rostatic accelerators are the preferred tool for accelerator-based investigations. Since some topics are common to all types of accelerators,Electrostatic Accelerators will also be of value those more familiar with other types of accelerators Note: Springer eBooks Contents: Accelerators to Part I Accelerators Accelerators an Introduction Accelerators for Medicine Accelerators for Synchrotron Radiation The Electrostatic Accelerator to Part II the Electrostatic Accelerator History of the Electrostatic Accelerator Electrostatics Calculation Technique for High Voltage Equipment in Gas Charging Systems Development of Charging Belts in Russia Cascade Generators Voltage Distribution Systems Resistors and Corona Points Accelerator Tubes Development of Tubes in Obninsk, Russia Stabilization Stripper System ISBN: 9783540270959 Series: e-books Series: SpringerLink (Online service) Series: Particle Acceleration and Detection, 1611-1052 Series: Physics and Astronomy (Springer-11651) Keywords: Weights and measures , Particle acceleration Availability: Click here to see Library holdings or inquire at Circ Desk (x3401) Click to reserve this book Be sure to include your ID please.

The signaling proteins belonging to the control layer determinewhat kinds of cells ar e made during development and how they function during adult life. Malfunctions in the proteins belonging to the control layer are responsible for a host of human diseases ranging from neurological disorders tocancers. Most drugs target components in the control layer, and difficulties in drug design are intimately related to the architecture of the control layer. Molecular and Cellular Signaling provides an introduction to molecular andcellular signaling in biological systems with an emphasis on the unde rlying physical principles. The text is aimed at upper-level undergraduates, graduate students and individuals in medicine and pharmacology interested in broadeningtheir understanding of how cells regulate and coordinate their core activities and how dise ases arise when these regulatory systems malfunction, as well as those in chemistry, physics and computer science interested in pursuing careersin biological and medical physics, bioinformatics and systems biology. To that end, the book includes backgroun d information and review sections, and chapters on signaling in the immune, endocrine (hormonal) and nervous systems. It haschapters on cancer, apoptosis and gene regulation, and contains chapters on bacteria and viruses. In those chapters not specificall y devoted to pathogens, connections between diseases, drugs and signaling are made. Each chapter alsofeatures a problem set to facilitate further discussion and understanding.
