About This Book
Progress in High Temperature Physics and Chemistry, Volume 1 is a collection of various theoretical, experimental, and technological aspects of high temperature phenomena. The volume presents broad scientific disciplines such as equilibrium and nonequilibrium thermodynamics; ionization and excitation phenomena; radiation and other transport phenomena; structure and properties of matter; sources and measurement (or determination) of high temperatures; chemical physics; gas dynamics; shock wave phenomena in solids, liquids, and gases producing high temperatures with associated physical and chemical changes; exploding wires and exploding foils; peaceful applications of nuclear energy; and astrophysics. Thermophysics and thermochemistry are briefly described as well. Physicists, chemists, worker, and researchers in the field of high temperature physics and chemistry will find the book very useful.
