Fossils from critical time periods are being described at unprecedented rates and modern phylogenetic analyses have provided a framework for the interrelationships of the extant groups. This book gives an overview of the avian fossil record and its paleobiological significance, and it is the only up-to-date textbook that covers both Mesozoic and more modern-type Cenozoic birds in some detail. The reader is introduced to key features of basal avians and the morphological transformations that have occurred in the evolution towards modern birds. An account of the Cenozoic fossil record sheds light on the biogeographic history of the extant avian groups and discusses fossils in the context of current phylogenetic hypotheses. This review of the evolutionary history of birds not only addresses students and established researchers, but it may also be a useful source of information for anyone else with an interest in the evolution of birds and a moderate background in biology and geology" --From the publisher.Topics in paleobiology series.Birds, FossilPaleobiologyBirds, Fossil.Paleobiology.568Mayr Gerald996071MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910135034803321Avian evolution2282701UNINA04823nam 22008655 450 991030037230332120200706151730.088-470-2808-610.1007/978-88-470-2808-1(CKB)3710000000143988(EBL)1783721(SSID)ssj0001274720(PQKBManifestationID)11993903(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001274720(PQKBWorkID)11333315(PQKB)10440727(DE-He213)978-88-470-2808-1(MiAaPQ)EBC6310705(MiAaPQ)EBC1783721(Au-PeEL)EBL1783721(CaPaEBR)ebr10966035(OCoLC)896367722(PPN)258868236(PPN)179765825(EXLCZ)99371000000014398820140624d2014 u| 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAtomic Spectroscopy and Radiative Processes /by Egidio Landi Degl'Innocenti1st ed. 2014.Milano :Springer Milan :Imprint: Springer,2014.1 online resource (432 p.)UNITEXT for Physics,2198-7882Description based upon print version of record.88-470-2807-8 Includes bibliographical references and index.General laws of the electromagnetic field -- Spectrum and polarisation -- Radiation from moving charges -- Quantisation of the electromagnetic field -- Relativistic wave equations -- Atoms with a single valence electron -- Atoms with multiple valence electrons -- Term energies -- More details on the spectra -- Laws of thermodynamic equilibrium -- Interaction between matter and radiation -- Selection rules and line strengths -- Non-equilibrium plasmas -- Radiative transfer -- Second order processes.This book describes the basic physical principles of atomic spectroscopy and the absorption and emission of radiation in astrophysical and laboratory plasmas. It summarizes the basics of electromagnetism and thermodynamics and then describes in detail the theory of atomic spectra for complex atoms, with emphasis on astrophysical applications. Both equilibrium and non-equilibrium phenomena in plasmas are considered. The interaction between radiation and matter is described, together with various types of radiation (e.g., cyclotron, synchrotron, bremsstrahlung, Compton). The basic theory of polarization is explained, as is the theory of radiative transfer for astrophysical applications. Atomic Spectroscopy and Radiative Processes bridges the gap between basic books on atomic spectroscopy and the very specialized publications for the advanced researcher: it will provide under- and postgraduates with a clear in-depth description of theoretical aspects, supported by practical examples of applications.UNITEXT for Physics,2198-7882AstrophysicsAtomic structureMolecular structureParticle accelerationParticles (Nuclear physics)Quantum field theorySpace sciencesAstrophysics and Astroparticleshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22022Atomic/Molecular Structure and Spectrahttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24017Particle Acceleration and Detection, Beam Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23037Elementary Particles, Quantum Field Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23029Space Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics)https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22030Astrophysics.Atomic structure.Molecular structure.Particle acceleration.Particles (Nuclear physics)Quantum field theory.Space sciences.Astrophysics and Astroparticles.Atomic/Molecular Structure and Spectra.Particle Acceleration and Detection, Beam Physics.Elementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory.Space Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics).539.7Landi Degl'Innocenti Egidioauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut721882MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910300372303321Spettroscopia atomica e processi radiativi1411340UNINA01999nam0 22004693i 450 VAN0030168920260119041250.760N978981997958520260119d2024 |0itac50 baengSG|||| |||||i e bcrAdvances in Nonlinear Dynamics and Control of Mechanical and Physical SystemsSelected Articles from CSNDD 2023; 15–17 May; Marrakesh, MoroccoMohamed Belhaq editorSingaporeSpringer2024xiv, 279 p.ill.24 cm001VAN001327472001 Springer Proceedings in Physics210 Berlin [etc.]Springer1984-301Atomic Force MicroscopyKW:KEnergy HarvestingKW:KMultiple scales dynamicsKW:KNonlinear SystemsKW:KNonlinear vibrationsKW:KNonlinear wavesKW:KPartial Differential EquationsKW:KQuasi-Periodic OscillationsKW:KStochastic DynamicsKW:KStructural health monitoringKW:KTime Series AnalysisKW:KSGSingaporeVANL000061BelhaqMohamedVANV107600340Conference on Structural Nonlinear Dynamics and Diagnosis5.2023Marrakesh, MoroccoVANV2557271889524Springer <editore>VANV108073650Belhaq, M.Belhaq, MohamedVANV255828CSNDD 2023Conference on Structural Nonlinear Dynamics and Diagnosis <5. ; 2023 ; Marrakesh, Morocco>VANV255728ITSOL20260130RICAhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-99-7958-5E-book – Accesso al full-text attraverso riconoscimento IP di Ateneo, proxy e/o ShibbolethNVAN00301689Advances in Nonlinear Dynamics and Control of Mechanical and Physical Systems4530072UNICAMPANIA
