Soviet Scientific Reviews
Author: The Making of a Soviet Scientist
Author: R. Z. SagdeevPublisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 362
Book Description
Writing with extraordinary candor, Dr. Sagdeev reveals startling details of the most politically sensitive scientific issues of the Cold War years. He identifies the key players in the Soviet nuclear weapons program (nearly all of whom he worked with) and recounts the internal battles over SDI technology and his own role in killing Russia's own "Star Wars" program.
X-Ray Diffraction Study of Nematic Smectic A and C Liquid Crystals
Author: B. I. OstrovskiiPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9783718649075
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 76
Book Description
Reviews recent studies of X-ray scattering phenomena in liquid crystals, in particular their relationship to phase-transition physics. Also explored are the main approximations which are used to obtain structural information from the scattering spectre of liquid crystals and to determine the short-range order in the molecule arrangement.

Author: S. A. PikinPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9783718649044
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
This volume presents the theoretical investigations of the polarization properties of liquid crystals. It describes induced polarized structures and the effects which result from the interaction between the spontaneous or induced polarization and orientational non-uniformities in the media. Section 2 presents the phenomenological theory of ferroelectricity in smectic C liquid crystals, a symmetry analysis, a discussion on free energy and a description of some effects reflecting the influence of the boundaries and external forces. Sections 3 and 4 focus on the molecular statistical theory of polarizational properties.
