Handbook of Spectroscopy, 4 Volume Set

Spectroscopy, the study of the interaction between matter and radiated energy is not a new science, but it has moved on considerably from its original roots. This second, thoroughly revised, updated and enlarged edition of the classic handbook contains new themes, such as nano–optics and polymer analysis, yet provides the same wealth of information as the original book. Clearly structured in fifteen sections, covering everything from sample preparation to medicinal applications, spanning a wide range of the electromagnetic spectrum and the physical processes involved, from nuclear phenomena to molecular rotation processes. Based on the practical knowledge of spectroscopists at universities, industries and research institutes worldwide, these four volumes are a must–have companion for daily use in every laboratory.
