DESCRIPTION:
The 30 papers here are written by an international team of experts who effectively cover both the theoretical and experimental aspects of the subject.. This book is a collection of papers for special issues of the Philosophical Magazine Part B and the Philosophical Magazine Transactions A, together with previously unreleased material presented at a seminar on the subject. The use of positive muons to simulate protons in solids is a relatively new, but already successful field of research, which exploits the unique properties of the muon
W Boudville said Practical uses outside physics research. This book explains a major justification of nuclear and accelerator research, other than searching for knowledge for its own sake. One way to test the practicality of research is to look for applications of it, outside the field.Which is this book's subject. Protons and muons can be used as probes into various macroscopic materials. This is distinguished from physics research where those particles are used as probes at the microscopic level, of unstable particles. Here, you can see descriptions of Rutherford Back Scattering. Techniques from the dawn of modern physics. Now very usefu
