Publisher Synopsis
The strength of the book lies in its thoughtful structure. Each individual chapter introduces the mechanisms involved, building from simplistic to sophisticated theoretical models, and are aided by diagrams of experimental schematics and results. * Kishan Menghrajani, CONTEMPORARY PHYSICS * The long-awaited revised and updated English version of a book by one of the leading authorities on the subject, previously only available in Russian. * Joseph Birman, City College New York * Read more...
