      • Facts and Mysteries in Elementary Particle Physics

        Revised Ed

        by Martinus Veltman

        This book provides a comprehensive overview of modern particle physics accessible to anyone with a true passion for wanting to know how the universe works. We are introduced to the known particles of the world we live in. An elegant explanation of quantum mechanics and relativity paves the way for an understanding of the laws that govern particle physics. These laws are put into action in the world of accelerators, colliders and detectors found at institutions such as CERN and Fermilab that are in the forefront of technical innovation. Real world and theory meet using Feynman diagrams to solve the problems of infinities and deduce the need for the Higgs boson. Facts and Mysteries in Elementary Particle Physics offers an incredible insight from an eyewitness and participant in some of the greatest discoveries in 20th century science. From Einstein's theory of relativity to the spectacular discovery of the Higgs particle, this book will fascinate and educate anyone interested in the world of quarks, leptons and gauge theories. This book also contains many thumbnail sketches of particle physics personalities, including contemporaries as seen through the eyes of the author. Illustrated with pictures, these candid sketches present rare, perceptive views of the characters that populate the field.

        Veterinary Bacteriology

        by Indranil Samanta

        The second revised edition consists of the general and systematic Veterinary Bacteriology. The general Bacteriology part contains introduction and history of Microbiology, classification and nomenclature of bacteria, microscopy and micrometry, bacterial stains, structure and morphology of bacteria, growth and nutritional requirements of bacteria, types and sources of infection, pathogenicity, virulence, determinants of virulence, epizootic and enzootic diseases, bacterial toxins, bacterial genetics (mutation, transformation, transduction, conjugation), plasmids and antibiotic resistance. The systematic Bacteriology part contains updated information on history, morphology, classification, resistance, natural habitat, genome, isolation and colony characteristics, biochemical and antigenic properties, pathogenesis, disease produced and diagnosis of each bacterial genus associated with animal and human health. The revised edition will also support the person engaged as Government Veterinarian, independent animal health practitioner, or associated with the laboratory for the diagnosis of animal diseases. The book comprises the diagnostic techniques for each bacterial genus ranging from staining parameters to molecular tools with useful colour photographs.

        Nitrogen Use Efficiency in Plants

        by Vanitha Jain & P. Ananda Kumar

        Nitrogen fertilizers are necessary to enhance agricultural production and to sustain food security. However, their inefficient use accrues from inherent limitations of the crop plants as well as the manner in which N fertilizers are formulated, applied and managed. The main aim of the book is to assess the various aspects of the fate of fertilizer N in context of the overall N inputs to agricultural systems, with a view to enhance the efficiency of nitrogen use and reduce the negative impacts on environment. The cross cutting issues relate to improvement in nitrogen use by emerging technologies (genetic enhancement, QTL mapping), meeting N needs by understanding its interactions with other nutrients, and mitigation of nitrogen losses caused by environmental factors and management practices. Nitrogen Use Efficiency in Plants develops links between basic and applied research and practical crop production by addressing a wide range of topics relating to nitrogen use efficiency, and to plant and crop responses to applications of nitrogen via fertilizers, including nitrogen acquisition and reduction, molecular approaches, nitrate induction and signaling; and nitrogen use under abiotic stresses. Nitrogen Use Efficiency in Plants is an invaluable classroom aid for academics working in plant physiology, biochemistry, biotechnology, molecular breeding and agronomy, and an essential professional resource for researchers working in plant and crop systems as it provides a comprehensive, interdisciplinary description of problems related to the efficient use of nitrogen in agriculture.
