This book tells the story of how NPR has tried to embody this idea. Michael P. McCauley describes NPR's evolution from virtual obscurity in the early 1970's, when it was riddled with difficulties-political battles, unseasoned leadership, funding problems-to a first-rate broadcast organization. The book draws on a wealth of primary evidence, including fifty-seven interviews with people who have been central to the NPR story, and it places the network within the historical context of the wider U.S. radio industry. Since the late 1970's, NPR has worked hard to understand the characteristics of its audience. Because of this, its content is now targeted toward its most loyal listeners-highly educated baby-boomers, for the most part-who help support their local stations through pledges and fund drives. 517 3 $aTrials and triumphs of National Public Radio 606 $aPublic radio$zUnited States 606 $aRadio broadcasters$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPublic radio 615 0$aRadio broadcasters 676 $a384.54/0973 700 $aMcCauley$b Michael P.$f1958-$01048234 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451627203321 996 $aNPR$92476401 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03031nam 2200613Ia 450 001 9910130584603321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a3-642-25864-6 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-642-25864-0 035 $a(CKB)3400000000102714 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000879968 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11467971 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000879968 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10872907 035 $a(PQKB)11348109 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-642-25864-0 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3070806 035 $z(PPN)258846208 035 $a(PPN)168310287 035 $a(EXLCZ)993400000000102714 100 $a20130107d2012 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn#008mamaa 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 14$aThe augmented spherical wave method $ea comprehensive treatment /$fVolker Eyert 205 $a2nd ed. 210 $aBerlin ;$aNew York $cSpringer$dc2012 215 $a1 online resource (XV, 379 p.) 225 1 $aLecture notes in physics,$x0075-8450 ;$vv.849 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 $a3-642-25863-8 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aIntroduction -- The Standard ASW Method -- Envelope Functions and Structure Constants -- The Plane-Wave Based Full-Potential ASW Method -- The Sperical-Wave Based Full-Potential ASW Method -- Details of the Standard ASW Method -- Details of the Envelope Functions -- Details of the Full-Potential ASW Methods -- Brillouin-Zone Integration -- Further Reading -- Index. 330 $aThe Augmented Spherical Wave (ASW) method is one of the most powerful approaches to handle the requirements of finite basis sets in DFT calculations. It is particularly suited for the calculation of the electronic, magnetic, and optical properties of solid-state materials. Recent developments allow application, in addition, to the elastic properties and phonon spectra. Due to the localized nature of the ASW basis set these properties can be easily interpreted in terms of atomic-like orbitals.   The book addresses all those who want to learn about methods for electronic structure calculations and the ASW method in particular.   This new edition has been thoroughly revised and extended. In particular, a chapter on the new, both very efficient and accurate spherical-wave based full potential ASW method has been added. 410 0$aLecture notes in physics ;$v849. 606 $aSpherical harmonics 606 $aElectronic structure 606 $aDensity functionals 606 $aDifferential equations, Partial 615 0$aSpherical harmonics. 615 0$aElectronic structure. 615 0$aDensity functionals. 615 0$aDifferential equations, Partial. 676 $a515/.53 700 $aEyert$b Volker$0508815 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910130584603321 996 $aThe Augmented Spherical Wave Method$91982592 997 $aUNINA
