Editorial Limusa pone a su disposicion esta obra, cuya importancia se refleja en el apreciable numero de ediciones que la preceden, en dos volumenes que sin duda haran mas facil su uso.

Atomic correlations have been studied in physics for over 50 years and known as collective effects until recently when they came to be recognized as a source of entanglement. This is the first book that contains detailed and comprehensive analysis of two currently extensively studied subjects of atomic and quantum physics-atomic correlations and their relations to entanglement between atoms or atomic systems-along with the newest developments in these fields. This book assembles accounts of many phenomena related to or resulting from atomic correlations. The essential language of the book is in terms of density matrices and master equations that provide detailed theoretical treatments and experimental analysis of phenomena such as entanglement between atoms, spontaneously or externally induced atomic coherence, engineering of atomic correlations, storage and controlled transfer of correlations, and dynamics of correlated systems.

This book focuses on applications for offshore platforms and piping; wind-induced vibration of buildings, bridges, and towers; and acoustic and mechanical vibration of heat exchangers, power lines, and process ducting.Numerous examples drive home the reality of the practical problems encountered here. More than 200 figures and 20 tables complement the text by providing such data as damping factors, lift coefficients, and the formulas needed to apply practical methods directly to a wide range of structures, from heat exchangers to hypersonic aircraft.Devoted to the analysis and prediction of flow-induced vibrations, this volume will prove of immense interest to mechanical, civil, nuclear, marine, structural, and electrical engineers; physicists, designers, and naval architects; and people working in the construction and petroleum industries, power plants, power transmission, ship building, nuclear power, energy production, and defense engineering.

Bajo la dirección de M.a Teresa Herrera. Este es un diccionario que entra dentro de la tipología de los diccionarios históricos, de carácter general, que recoge todo el léxico contenido en 33 textos medievales dedicados al estudio de la anatomia, higiene y patologia humanas y conservados en bibliotecas españolas. De ellos una gran mayoria son ineditos y por consiguiente nunca fueron expurgados desde el punto de vista lexico ni considerados en los estudios historicos de la lengua española. El DETEMA ofrece junto a la interpretacion conceptual el contexto en el que se inserta cada una de las voces estudiadas en todos los textos. La obra referenciada pasara a formar parte del gran Diccionario del Español Medieval, proyecto en vias de ejecucion en el Hispanic Seminary of Medieval Studies de la Universidad de Wisconsin (Madison, EE.UU.). Se trata de una obra de consulta fundamental para filologos e historiadores de la ciencia, tanto por su amplitud como por la variedad del lexico que contiene. Pero dada la envergadura de dicho proyecto se ha considerado conveniente la publicacion aislada de los diccionarios correspondientes a los distintos campos conceptuales para que, ante la inexistencia de un diccionario Historico del español, el estudioso de la lengua española pueda contar lo mas pronto posible con los datos ya extraidos de dichas publicaciones parciales, en este caso, medicas.

"The best scholarly reference work available on dinosaurs. . . . The volume will serve as a vehicle for university level instruction, and as a foundation for future research on dinosaurs."--Dale A. Russell, author of "An Odyssey in Time: The Dinosaurs of North America When the "The Dinosauria "was first published more than a decade ago, it was hailed as "the best scholarly reference work available on dinosaurs" and "an historically unparalleled compendium of information." This second, fully revised edition continues in the same vein as the first but encompasses the recent spectacular discoveries that have continued to revolutionize the field. A state-of-the-science view of current world research, the volume includes comprehensive coverage of dinosaur systematics, reproduction, and life history strategies, biogeography, taphonomy, paleoecology, thermoregulation, and extinction. Its internationally renowned authors--forty-four specialists on the various members of the Dinosauria--contribute definitive descriptions and illustrations of these magnificent Mesozoic beasts. The first section of "The Dinosauria "begins with the origin of the great clade of these fascinating reptiles, followed by separate coverage of each major dinosaur taxon, including the Mesozoic radiation of birds. The second part of the volume navigates through broad areas of interest. Here we find comprehensive documentation of dinosaur distribution through time and space, discussion of the interface between geology and biology, and the paleoecological inferences that can be made through this link. This new edition will be the benchmark reference for everyone who needs authoritative information on dinosaurs.
