This second volume of 'The Physics of Sound and Music: A complete course text' is a lab manual providing a complete resource to accompany undergraduate courses on the physics of sound and music, and is supplemented by the textbook in volume one of this two-volume set.

In this book, we will look at all these aspects, going from particles, via atoms, cells, starts, galaxies, our place in the universe, to explore what makes us, human beings, really unique in nature: our ability to imagine and shape the future by making use of the scientific method.

This book introduces an exact approach to continuous dislocation dynamics based on the "all-dislocation" density (ADD), for mesoscopic simulation of coarse-grained dislocation microstructures.

The book covers various polarization and directional effects - practically important for diagnostics of plasmas - in the radiation of satellites of spectral lines from plasmas, in the intra-Stark spectroscopy of plasmas, in the Stark broadening of spectral lines by a high-energy hydrogen or deuterium beam, or by a relativistic electron beam in magnetic fusion plasmas, in the Stark broadening of spectral lines in strongly-magnetized plasmas, in the radiation of plasma-based x-ray lasers, and in the laser-induced fluorescence from plasmas.

This book is a valuable resource for professionals, researchers, and students who want to expand their knowledge of advanced computer vision techniques using PyTorch.

This book describes the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) issues within proton therapy and advises on how to use a variable RBE within treatment planning and in dose prescription to improve the safety of proton and other forms on ion beam therapy. Decision-making advice is also provided for protocol breaches, retreatments, dose rate effects and risk assessment.
