Propagation of Acoustic Waves in Air
This chapter specifically discusses the propagation of acoustic waves in air. By considering the source of elasticity of air, we derive the equation...
-
Electrical-Mechanical Transduction
This chapter discusses acoustic transduction. We focus on the operation principle of typical acoustic transducers to understand how the devices work....
-
Propagation of Acoustic Waves in Solids
In this chapter, we aim to discuss the propagation of sound waves in solids, clarifying the dynamical difference in elastic behaviors between air and...

On the Majorana Solution to the Thomas-Fermi Equation
We analyse the solution to the Thomas-Fermi equationThomas-Fermi equation discovered by Majorana. We show that the series for the slope at...

Application of the Continuous Stern Gerlach Effect: Magnetic Moments
This chapter briefly reviews the measurements of magnetic moments that have been performed by application of the continuous Stern-Gerlach effect to a...
-
Microwave Spectroscopy
Microwave spectroscopy of confined particles in Penning traps is mainly applied to magnetic dipole transitions in various contexts. The strong...

Reentrant Phase Transitions in Liquid Crystals
Phenomenon of reentrancy of a low symmetry (high order) phase in-between two high symmetry (low order) phases as the transition thermodynamic...
-
Chiral Nematic Liquid Crystals
Chiral nematic (or cholesteric) liquid crystals are of great interest due to their special self-assembled helical structure and selective light...
