By Forman A. Williams, A. K. Oppenheim, Daniel B. Olfe, F. A. Williams, D. B. Olfe, M. Lapp

This compendium of technical articles is devoted to Professor Stanford Solomon Penner at the social gathering of his seventieth birthday. As probably the most well-liked scientists of our instances, he has been quite instrumental in advancing the sector of combustion technological know-how whereas concurrently he has constructed quantitative spectroscopy into a tremendous engineering self-discipline, and is additionally a number one foreign professional on strength matters. Written essentially by way of researchers who have been Professor Penner's doctorate scholars over the past 4 a long time, the articles encompass unique contributions in addition to formerly released papers that offer very important insights into combustion, spectroscopy, and effort difficulties. one of the themes incorporated are turbulent combustion, flame constitution, detonations, spectroscopic diagnostics, spectroscopy of atmospheric gases, and actual difficulties linked to nuclear reactors in addition to electrical energy distribution, and effort conversion. The booklet incorporates a brief biography of Professor Penner and a whole bibliography of his courses

Collected works, with commentary

This quantity includes the amassed works of the eminent chemist and physicist Lars Onsager, probably the most influential scientists of the twentieth Century. the amount comprises Onsager's formerly unpublished PhD thesis, a biography via H C Longuet-Higgins and M E Fisher, an autobiographical statement, chosen photos, and an inventory of Onsager dialogue feedback in print.

Portable X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometry Capabilities for In Situ Analysis

Transportable X-ray fluorescence (PXRF) instrumentation has a few specific analytical functions for the in situ research of samples within the box. those services were prolonged lately by means of the ongoing improvement of reliable country detectors, floor fixed electronics, electronic sign processing expertise, Li-ion batteries mixed with a call of rugged sealed radioisotope resources or miniature X-ray tubes that offer light-weight hand held units.

Barrére and R. Borghi, this had been accomplished by K. N. C. Bray 48 and F. A. Williams. The recipe for order thus deduced is expressed in terms of a diagram delineating various regimes of turbulent combustion mechanisms, displayed in Fig. 1. The abscissa is the Reynolds number based on the integral scale of turbulence, Rx = i£w/v, while the ordinate is the concomitant Damkohler number, D$ = £ £ W T C. Values of the parameters depicted there are derived from an order-of-magnitude type of 1/2 arguments.

Although conducted under the title of Turbulent Combustion, its subject revolved naturally around the topic of turbulent flames and their statistical nature. In this connection major emphasis was placed upon the concept of the probability density function, especially concerning its bi-modal distribution that reveals the interaction between the unburnt reactants and the burnt products.
