A behind-the-scenes narrative of the Hubble mission. Told by the now retired Senior Project Scientist for Hubble, David Leckrone, this fascinating story recounts the history of the mission from 1990 to the present day. It tells the stories of scores of individuals who made major contributions to the Hubble legacy.

Leadership and Challenges in Medical Physics: A Strategic and Robust Approach aims to help aspiring future medical physics leaders with effective, strategic and robust leadership skills. The author, Carmel Caruana, is the originator and leader of the EFOMP-EUTEMPE module MPE01 on leadership in medical physics.

This book covers small particle ring accelerators and Paul trap simulators for research and proof-of-principle experiments of advanced concepts.

This book has been written in the hope that readers will be able to absorb the key ideas behind algorithmic information theory so that they are in a better position to access the mathematical developments and to apply the ideas to their own areas of interest.

The study of Condensed Matter Physics has evolved over the last decade or so. The scope of Modern Condensed Matter Physics has expanded significantly from traditional solid-state physics and has become a highly interdisciplinary field of research.This book connects modern experimental discoveries with theoretical and fundamental concepts. It introduces the interacting and non-interacting aspects of fermionic systems and the role of topology and symmetry in understanding material properties.The text emphasizes quantum Hall effect, topological insulators and how the discovery of graphene has incited brilliant ideas in both fundamental and applied aspects. The role of interactions is discussed to explain topics including Magnetism and Superconductivity. Topics such as Bose Einstein condensation and superfluid properties of atomic systems in optical lattices are also a key feature of the text. The book offers something different to the field due to the range of topics covered in a pedagogical way for students.Key FeaturesProvides a modern perspective of condensed matter physicsAims to be understandable for studentsProvides significant pedagogical content in the form of derivations and illustrationsPresents advanced topics in a pedagogical manner

This volume discusses various diseases related to lung, heart, peripheral arterial imaging, and miscellaneous topics like gene expression characterization and classification. Further, the Vol. 2 discusses imaging applications, their complexities and the DL-models employed to resolve them in detail. The DL-based applications are categorized into two types: segmentation and characterization.The segmentation is chiefly involved in dissecting region-of-interest (ROI) of the infected part. In the characterization part, the dissected ROI or the overall image is graded as per the risk factor is involved. DL has a remarkable success in segmenting carotid plaque area from ultrasound common carotid artery images. Similarly in case of brain imaging, DL-based applications for brain cancer are divided into segmentation and characterization. In the segmentation part, the brain tumour is separated from the healthy tissue. In the characterization part, the tumour cells are graded as per their risk. Overall, DL is human brain comparable intelligence system which can strengthen effective medical treatment in a faster way. It is for sure, that DL-based technologies can enable doctors to quickly diagnose the patients, provide an effective plan for treatment and help in saving lives.Key features: Discusses various diseases related to lung, heart, peripheral arterial imaging, and miscellaneous topics like gene expression characterization and classificationDiscusses imaging applications, their complexities and the DL-models employed to resolve them in detailTakes the most basic workable model and then builds the entire architecture in a bottom-up approachProvides state-of-the-art contributions while addressing doubts in multimodal researchDetails the future of deep leanring and big data in medical imaging
