{"product_id":"energy-momentum-conservation-laws-emil-zolotoyabko-9783111343457","title":"Energy-Momentum Conservation Laws: From Solar Cells, Nuclear Energy, and Muscle Work to Positron Emission Tomography","description":"Conservation laws, reflecting the symmetry of space and time, play a vital role in understanding the surrounding world. Conservation laws allow us to explain very different phenomena from a unified point of view. The textbook illustrates this principle taking examples from mechanics, optics, nuclear physics, solid-state physics, and medicine. They include, for example, positron annihilation used in experiments aimed at neutrino registration and in the positron emission tomography for patient diagnostics; the functioning of solar cells, infrared detectors, and light emitting diodes (LEDs); slowing down fission neutrons toward achieving a nuclear chain reaction; jet propulsion of a rocket and an octopus; principles of magnetic resonance imaging and principles standing behind fission and fusion nuclear reactions; and more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Emil Zolotoyabko\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3111343456\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783111343457\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e de Gruyter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/29\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 134\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.29d","brand":"Emil Zolotoyabko","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44616475640063,"sku":"9783111343457","price":71.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5305f6e6-c5f9-4787-bd17-34c44de5a510.jpg?v=1703020546","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/energy-momentum-conservation-laws-emil-zolotoyabko-9783111343457","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
