Art Conservation Mechanical Properties and Testing of Materials

Conservators and other museum professionals face a large number of issues involving the mechanical behavior of materials including questions on craquelure restoring physically damaged objects art in transport or the selection of adhesives. However science in conservation and museum studies curricula focusses mostly on chemistry. This book fills this important gap in conservation training. It is the first such book written specifically for the conservation community and professionals with little or no background in (mechanical) engineering. It introduces the basics of mechanical properties and behavior of materials and objects with examples and exercises based on conservation practice. More complex issues of mechanical loading and advanced solutions are also introduced. | Art Conservation Mechanical Properties and Testing of Materials

Applied Bohmian Mechanics From Nanoscale Systems to Cosmology

Most textbooks explain quantum mechanics as a story where each step follows naturally from the one preceding it. However the development of quantum mechanics was exactly the opposite. It was a zigzag route full of personal disputes where scientists were forced to abandon well-established classical concepts and to explore new and imaginative pathways. Some of the explored routes were successful in providing new mathematical formalisms capable of predicting experiments at the atomic scale. However even such successful routes were painful enough so that relevant scientists like Albert Einstein and Erwin Schrödinger decided not to support them. In this book the authors demonstrate the huge practical utility of another of these routes in explaining quantum phenomena in many different research fields. Bohmian mechanics the formulation of the quantum theory pioneered by Louis de Broglie and David Bohm offers an alternative mathematical formulation of quantum phenomena in terms of quantum trajectories. Novel computational tools to explore physical scenarios that are currently computationally inaccessible such as many-particle solutions of the Schrödinger equation can be developed from it. | Applied Bohmian Mechanics From Nanoscale Systems to Cosmology

How Enzymes Work From Structure to Function

The first edition of this book covered the basic treatment of the enzyme reaction using the overall reaction kinetics and stopped-flow method the general properties of protein and cofactors the control of enzyme reaction and the preparation of enzyme protein. These topics are the basis of enzyme research and thus suitable for the beginner in the field. The second edition presents the cofactors produced via the post-translational modification of the enzyme’s active site. These cofactors expand the function of enzymes and open a new research field. The carbonyl reagent phenylhydrazine and related compounds have been useful in finding some of the newly discovered cofactors and thus have been discussed in this edition. The topic of the control of enzyme activity through the channel of substrates and products in polyfunctional enzymes has also been expanded in this book. | How Enzymes Work From Structure to Function

Plasma Applications for Material Modification From Microelectronics to Biological Materials

This book is an up-to-date review of the most important plasma-based techniques for material modification from microelectronics to biological materials and from fusion plasmas to atmospheric ones. Each its technical chapters is written by long-experienced internationally recognised researchers. The book provides a deep and comprehensive insight into plasma technology and its associated elemental processes and is illustrated throughout with excellent figures and references to complement each section. Although some of the topics covered can be traced back several decades care has been taken to emphasize the most recent findings and expected evolution. The first time the word ‘plasma’ appeared in print in a scientific text related to the study of electrical discharges in gases was 1928 when Irving Langmuir published his article ‘Oscillations in Ionized Gases’. It was the baptism of the predominant state of matter in the known universe (it is estimated that up to 99% of matter is plasma) although not on earth where the conditions of pressure and temperature make normal the states of matter (solid liquid gas) which in global terms are exotic. It is enough to add energy to a solid (in the form of heat or electromagnetic radiation) to go into the liquid state from which gas is obtained through an additional supply of energy. If we continue adding energy to the gas we will partially or totally ionise it and reach a new state of matter plasma made up of free electrons atoms and molecules (electrically neutral particles) and ions (endowed with a positive or a negative electric charge). | Plasma Applications for Material Modification From Microelectronics to Biological Materials

From Atoms to Higgs Bosons Voyages in Quasi-Spacetime

The announcement in 2012 that the Higgs boson had been discovered was understood as a watershed moment for the Standard Model of particle physics. It was deemed a triumphant event in the reductionist quest that had begun centuries ago with the ancient Greek natural philosophers. Physicists basked in the satisfaction of explaining to the world that the ultimate cause of mass in our universe had been unveiled at CERN Switzerland. The Standard Model of particle physics is now understood by many to have arrived at a satisfactory description of entities and interactions on the smallest physical scales: elementary quarks leptons and intermediary gauge bosons residing within a four-dimensional spacetime continuum. Throughout the historical journey of reductionist physics mathematics has played an increasingly dominant role. Indeed abstract mathematics has now become indispensable in guiding our discovery of the physical world. Elementary particles are endowed with abstract existence in accordance with their appearance in complicated equations. Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle originally intended to estimate practical measurement uncertainties now bequeaths a numerical fuzziness to the structure of reality. Particle physicists have borrowed effective mathematical tools originally invented and employed by condensed matter physicists to approximate the complex structures and dynamics of solids and liquids and bestowed on them the authority to define basic physical reality. The discovery of the Higgs boson was a result of these kinds of strategies used by particle physicists to take the latest steps on the reductionist quest. This book offers a constructive critique of the modern orthodoxy into which all aspiring young physicists are now trained that the ever-evolving mathematical models of modern physics are leading us toward a truer understanding of the real physical world. The authors propose that among modern physicists physical realism has been largely replaced—in actual practice—by quasirealism a problematic philosophical approach that interprets the statements of abstract effective mathematical models as providing direct information about reality. History may judge that physics in the twentieth century despite its seeming successes involved a profound deviation from the historical reductionist voyage to fathom the mysteries of the physical universe. | From Atoms to Higgs Bosons Voyages in Quasi-Spacetime

Three Daughters Three Journeys Quest for Cancer Cure

Cancer threatens the lives of people around the world. Women in particular are at risk of certain cancers with a genetic cause. Certain mutations in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes put mothers and daughters at risk of breast and ovarian cancers. Unlike many cancers that most commonly occur after age 60 these inheritable cancers threaten women’s lives health and fertility even when they are young before most would even begin to go for annual mammogram screenings to check for breast cancer. Three Daughters Three Journeys takes on the biggest health issue of our time from a global perspective with three heroines fighting for their lives against cancer. Marzena a Polish oncology nurse has spent her life treating child patients with cancer. Then she confronts it in her own family and her own body. Kamola a rural Indian girl knows she has symptoms of the same disease that took her mother but feels afraid to discuss it with her father and brothers knowing her family cannot afford medical treatment. Kamola confides in Dr Rini Mishra a doctor testing a new treatment called Neelazin using a bacterial anticancer protein in food to destroy cancer cells. Selena a wealthy woman of color in Chicago finds out about her genetic risks of breast and ovarian cancer. She has a choice of preventative surgery that will save her life but remove any chance of having children. As she meets women who struggle to afford cancer treatment Selena dedicates her life to providing affordable homes and counseling to families affected by the disease. Although the drug Neelazin is fictional the possibility of new cancer treatments using bacterial anticancer proteins is being researched now. A problem with the current chemotherapy for cancer treatment is the high toxicity of most of these drugs as these drugs can enter both normal and cancer cells though preferably cancer cells causing the death of normal cells as well that are important in maintaining health. Another problem is that current chemotherapeutic drugs mostly target a single or few key steps that are important for cancer growth and proliferation and inhibit the growth of cancer cells. The cancer cells respond by quickly changing these single targets thereby becoming resistant to the drugs as is reflected in stage IV cancer patients. An alternative to chemotherapy would be to exploit the bacterial evolutionary wisdom and use certain proteins that can have preferential entry to cancer cells in order to minimize normal cell toxicity and multiple targets in cancer cells through protein–protein complex formation thus reducing resistance development in cancer cells. An interesting advantage of protein drugs is to express them as part of food and some recent research seems to suggest that oral consumption of such foods may allow the therapeutic protein to reach the blood stream to target the cancer. Women with the genetic risk factors could soon have the choice of taking a pill or such anticancer protein-expressing food to treat or prevent cancer rather than removing the healthy tissue of the breasts and ovaries. Hopefully they would not have to choose between fertility and survival as is the implied message in this book fictional as it is at this time. | Three Daughters Three Journeys Quest for Cancer Cure

Diradicaloids

π-Conjugated molecules with an even number of π-electrons usually have a closed-shell ground state. However recent studies have demonstrated that a certain type of molecules could show open-shell singlet ground state and display diradical-like (diradicaloid) behavior. Their electronic structure can be understood in terms of the “diradical character” and “aromaticity” concepts. They display very different electronic properties from traditional closed-shell π-conjugated molecules and could be used as next-generation molecular materials. This book provides a comprehensive review on the chemistry physics and material applications of open-shell singlet diradicaloids. Particularly it elaborates the fundamental structure–diradical character–electronic property relationships both theoretically and experimentally. The book has been written by leading scientists in the field from Japan Germany Spain Italy China and Singapore.

The Shroud of Christ Evidence of a 2 000 Year Antiquity

The Shroud of Turin has been the focus of extensive study by historians and researchers since the beginning of the twentieth century. It is possibly the world’s most studied historical artifact generating a regular flow of new research publications. There is however one scientific test that overshadows all other research: the 1988 radiocarbon dating. This test dated the cloth to the period 1260–1390AD and was given such extensive publicity that most people today no longer accept the Shroud to be a true relic. Sadly very few people are aware that this test has been widely criticized for falling short of acceptable scientific standards. Similarly most people remain unaware of the wealth of compelling evidence that contradicts the conclusions of that test and supports claims of the Shroud’s authenticity. This book reveals extracts from secret discussions on dating evidence from the Shroud Science Group a private international forum of Shroud researchers and provides a detailed account of the dating evidence revealed by over a hundred years of research. It outlines reasons why the 1988 radiocarbon dating test continues to attract criticism from respected scientists and also describes a series of innovative flax dating techniques which have recently been used measure the age of Shroud material producing results that contradict the radiocarbon date. | The Shroud of Christ Evidence of a 2 000 Year Antiquity

Companion Diagnostics (CDx) in Precision Medicine

There is a new trend in anti-cancer therapeutics development: a targeted therapy and precision medicine that targets a subgroup of patients with specific biomarkers. An in vitro diagnostic (IVD) assay is required to identify a subgroup of cancer patients who would benefit from the targeted therapy or not likely benefit or have a high risk of side effects from the specific drug treatment. This IVD or medical device is called a companion diagnostic (CDx) assay. It is key to have a robust CDx assay or device for the success of targeted therapy and precision medicine. This book covers the technical historical clinical and regulatory aspects of CDx in precision medicine. Clearly more and more newly developed oncology drugs will require accompanying CDx assays and this book with chapters contributed by renowned oncologists provides a comprehensive foundation for the knowledge and application of CDx for precision medicine. | Companion Diagnostics (CDx) in Precision Medicine
