      Progress in Analytical Atomic Spectroscopy, Volume 3 presents the advancement in the study of the electromagnetic radiation that atoms absorb and emit. The book first explores the nuclear energy materials, and then discusses the thermodynamic study of gaseous monocyanides through electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry. The multielement atomic fluorescence spectroscopy and the analytical atomic spectroscopy of metallurigical materials are then tackled. The text also looks into a theoretical approach to the analytical capabilities of atomic spectrometric techniques utilizing tunable lasers. The latter parts explain the analytical applications of spectra of diatomic molecules; the chemical reactions in atom reservoirs used in atomic absorption spectroscopy; and the Zeeman effect atomic absorption. The text will be helpful to those interested in analytical atomic spectroscopy.

      TAUP 91 covers the proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Theoretical and Phenomenological Aspects of Underground Physics, held in Toledo, Spain on September 9-13, 1991. The book focuses on the processes, methodologies, reactions, and transformations involved in underground physics. The selection first offers information on the fundamental issues in particle astrophysics and an overview of the problems related to general cosmology. Topics include connections between particle physics, astrophysics, and cosmology, stellar physics and particles, astrophysical ages, cosmic background radiation, and abundances of light elements. The text also takes a look at big bang nucleosynthesis constraints on new physics and microwave background radiation. The publication ponders on very wide band interferometric gravitational wave antenna and search for stellar gravitational collapse by macro. The text also examines high energy cosmic neutrinos of acceleration and non-acceleration origin; tests of general relativity and Newtonian gravity at large distances and the dark matter problem; and nuclear form factors for the scattering of neutralinos. The selection is a valuable reference for readers interested in underground physics.
