But what produces their dazzling array of effects? This book takes you behind the scenes to explore the chemistry and physics behind the art of pyrotechnics.Topics covered include history and characteristics of gunpowder; principles behind each of the most popular firework types: rockets, shells, fountains, sparklers, bangers, roman candles and wheels; special effects, including sound effects, coloured smokes and electrical firing; firework safety for private use and displays; and firework legislRSC PaperbacksFireworksElectronic books.Fireworks.662.1662/.1Russell Michael S883910MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910456704403321The chemistry of fireworks1974065UNINA01291nam a2200349 i 450099100136507970753620020507192135.0940317s1986 ||| ||| | eng 3540171975b10837371-39ule_instLE01311152ExLDip.to Matematicaeng510AMS 47-02AMS 47B15AMS 47B35AMS 47D05 (1985)Helson, Henry59046The spectral theorem /Henry HelsonBerlin ; New York :Springer-Verlag,1986vi, 103 p. :ill. ;25 cm.Lecture notes in mathematics,0075-8434 ;1227"Based on lectures given at the summer school for graduate students held at the Mathematical Institute, Nankai University, in Tianjin during June and July, 1985"- P. iii.Bibliography: p.

Firenze, Italy : Firenze University Press, 2006 8884534968 (OCoLC)78203560 Includes bibliographical references and index.Consumers trust is a key factor in dealing with rising concerns about food safety and food quality, but only few studies have dealt with consumer attitudes and none of them has tried to model the process of consumer response. This book reports the main findings of an european project aimed at analysing trust along the food chain and its relationship with food risk communication. The papers collected investigate the mechanisms that determine the social diffusion of trust, examining the interplay of the psychological, sociological and economic factors; and analyze the impact of the food risk communication policies on consumers and producers and on the society as a whole.Health risk communicationHealth risk communicationEuropean Union countrieseconomicssociologyunione europeaalimentazionesociologiaatti di convegnoeuropean unionproceedingsnutritioneconomiaBovine spongiform encephalopathyChickenFood chainFood safetyFranceGermanyItalyNetherlandsRisk managementRisk perceptionHealth risk communication.Health risk communication658Romano Donatoauth82491Romano Donato82491Stefani Gianluca89364WaSeSSWaSeSSUkMaJRU996198548603316How safe is eating chicken1802229UNISA
