{"product_id":"extreme-states-of-matter-vladimir-fortov-9783319792637","title":"Extreme States of Matter: High Energy Density Physics","description":"With its many beautiful colour pictures, this book gives fascinating insights into the unusual forms and behaviour of matter under extremely high pressures and temperatures. These extreme states are generated, among other things, by strong shock, detonation and electric explosion waves, dense laser beams, electron and ion beams, hypersonic entry of spacecraft into dense atmospheres of planets and in many other situations characterized by extremely high pressures and temperatures. Written by one of the world's foremost experts on the topic, this book will inform and fascinate all scientists dealing with materials properties and physics and also serve as an excellent introduction to plasma-, shock-wave and high-energy-density physics for students and newcomers seeking an overview. This second edition is thoroughly revised and expanded, in particular with new material on high energy-density physics, nuclear explosions and other nuclear transformation processes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Vladimir Fortov\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3319792636\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783319792637\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/30\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 700\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.18lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.44d","brand":"Vladimir Fortov","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48519778042111,"sku":"9783319792637","price":249.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5e3292ba-b1df-48aa-9949-cb4baaf6f3dc.jpg?v=1778738755","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/extreme-states-of-matter-vladimir-fortov-9783319792637","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
