Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume comprises a collection of invited papers presented at the interna tional symposium 'The Future of Muon Physics', May 7-9 1991, at the Ruprecht Karls-Universitat in Heidelberg. In the inspiring atmosphere of the Internationales Wissenschaftsforum researchers working worldwide at universities and at many inter national accelerator centers came together to review the present status of the field and to discuss the future directions in muon physics. The muon, charged lepton of the second generation, was first oberved some sixty years ago~ Despite many efforts since, the reason for its existence still remains a secret to the scientific community challenging both theorists and experimentalists. In modern physics the muon plays a key role in many topics of research. Atomic physics with negative muons provides excellent tests of the theory of quantum electrodynamics and of the electro-weak interaction and probes nuclear properties. The. purely leptonic hydrogen-like muonium atom allows tests of fun damental laws in physics and the determination of precise values for fundamental constants. New measurements of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon will probe the renormalizability of the weak interaction and will be sensitive to physics beyond the standard model. The muon decay is the most carefully studied weak process. Searches for rare decay modes of muons and for the conversion of muonium to antimuonium examine the lepton number conservation laws and new speculative theories. Nuclear muon capture addresses fundamental questions like tests of the CPT theorem.…

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. 1st Edition. Frontispiece, xi, 1 leaf, 314 pp; figs. Original cloth. Near Fine, in near fine dust jacket. Contributors include Norman F. Ramsey, et al. Inscribed: '11/24/92/To Mel Schwartz/With best wishes/and warmest regards/Vernon Hughes'. Hughes 'was an American physicist specializing in research of subatomic particles. Hughes was notable for his research of muons which showed the existence of previously undetected matter. He was also noted for research that showed that protons have gluons and quarks. Hughes was a member of the National Academy of Sciences, Sterling Professor at Yale University, and a recipient of Rumford Prize, and a recipient of Davisson-Germer Prize in Atomic Physics and the Tom R. Bonner Prize in Nuclear Physics, both from the American Physical Society' (Wikipedia). The Nobel Prize in Physics 1988 was awarded jointly to Leon M. Lederman, Melvin Schwartz and Jack Steinberger 'for the neutrino beam method and the demonstration of the doublet structure of the leptons through the discovery of the muon neutrino.'.

A complete set of the 48 signed broadside poems as issued, contained in an unusually fresh example of the half pig skin folder with ties. The poems vary slightly in size but are printed on fine quality paper, generally about 28x38 cm and were intended for framing. One poem by Seamus Heaney, Land, has been professionally mounted in a card surround. Individually issued as the 'poem of the month' between 1970-1974 and again in 1977, each broadside is signed by the author and the poems are in fine condition. Around a dozen A4 size introductory and biographical sheets and lists which were issued by the club to accompany some of the poems are laid in. The large portfolio is in very good condition with a little rubbing to extremities. The Poem of the Month Club was founded in 1970 by Jack H. Clark and Winston Fletcher with a mission to publish a 'substantial and characteristic' original poem by a leading British poet. Among the poets published by the club were W.H. Auden, Robert Graves, Seamus Heaney, Philip Larkin, Cecil Day-Lewis, John Betjeman and Stevie Smith. Roy Fuller and the poet laureate Cecil Day-Lewis advised the club and helped to solicit and select poems for publication with a stellar cast of contributors for the first two folios. The club eventually fell victim to declining interest and the increased difficulty in finding new material. The collection comprises: (Folio 1) Francesca in Winter / Stevie Smith -- Going my way? / C. Day Lewis -- The explosion / Roy Fuller -- Art student / Stephen Spender -- Advice from a mother / Robert Graves -- At Dunkeswell Abbey / Anthony Thwaite -- Annotations of Giant's Town / John Fuller -- Hurt / 2 x Elizabeth Jennings -- What is mercy and a voice / George Barker -- Midnights / Norman MacCaig -- Epigrams by Martial / Peter Porter. (Folio 2) Natural linguistics (for Peter Salus) / W.H. Auden -- Night / Douglas Dunn -- In the Basilica of the Annunciation / D.J. Enright -- Photograph / John Lehmann -- Transformation scene / Alan Brownjohn -- Last days at Teddington / Thom Gunn -- Presence / Glyn Hughes -- Land / Seamus Heaney -- A Calcutta grandmother / Alan Ross -- Anniversary ; Vigil / Ian Hamilton -- Venus / Gavin Ewart. (Folio 3) Cherry blossom / Hugo Williams -- John Berryman, 1914-1972 / Ruthven Todd -- Notes by the provincial governor / Philip Oakes -- The man who built his city in snow (in memoriam Wallace Stephens 1879-1955) / by Derek Mahon -- Doomsday (suggested by parts of the O.E. poem Christ) / Harold Massingham -- The eminent professors and the nature of poetry as enacted out by members of the poetry seminar one rainy evening / Brian Patten -- The legacy / A. Alvarez -- Small secrets : for Patrick Collins / John Montague -- Spanish balcony / Patricia Beer -- Three poems written in Ireland, August 1972 : To friends in Sligo ; Clonalis ; Culleenamore / Kathleen Raine -- The wooing of Becfola (after the Irish) / Austin Clarke -- Wish you were here / Vernon Scannell. (Folio 4.) The ancestral face / Neil Rhodes -- Wasted ; Kipling at Batemans / Kingsley Amis -- From an Australian country sequence / Geoffrey Lehmann -- The first folio / Geoffrey Grigson -- A reflection on Auden / Julian Symons -- The speckled bush / Molly Holden -- Hard of hearing / Norman Nicholson -- Orpheus / Donald Davie -- Lunchtime / Dannie Abse -- Casualty ward / Robert Conquest -- In focus / Fleur Adcock -- The marriage of Figaro / James Reeves.
