Abstract

Sonochemistry and the Acoustic Bubble provides an introduction to the way ultrasound acts on bubbles in a liquid to cause bubbles to collapse violently, leading to localized 'hot spots' in the liquid with temperatures of 5000° celcius and under pressures of several hundred atmospheres. These extreme conditions produce events such as the emission of light, sonoluminescence, with a lifetime of less than a nanosecond, and free radicals that can initiate a host of varied chemical reactions (sonochemistry) in the liquid, all at room temperature. The physics and chemistry behind the phenomen

Abstract

"El fondo cuenta la historia de un hombre que trabaja como soldador submarino. Su familia, de numerosos hijos, lo aguarda cada noche para oír las aventuras más notable. El punto de partida se produce cuando el protagonista gana un televisor en una rifa. Su esposa ve en un canal local una publicidad con una fotografía suya, en la que aparece recibiendo el televisor de manso del carnicero y el escribano. Pero algo le resulta extraño: su marido tiene más pelo del que le queda por esos días. El pequeño detalle llevará a los personajes a asomarse a una historia desconocida, que esconde a la vez sórdidos secretos familiares. Una historia sobre la complejidad de los lazos familiares a través de la mirada, por momentos terrible, de los niños. La fascinación por las historias, la figura paterna, la promesa de sueños que nunca llegan a cumplirse del todo y la iniciación en el mundo de la adultez son algunos de los temas que aparecen en El fondo, pero también se hacen presentes, a veces a un mismo tiempo y de un modo inseparable, el humor y la tristeza."--Page [4] of cover.

Abstract

Analysing the physiological adaptations of marine mammals and seabirds, this book provides a comprehensive overview of what allows these species to overcome the challenges of diving to depth on a single breath of air. Through comparative reviews of texts on diving physiology and behaviour from the last seventy-five years, Ponganis combines this research into one succinct volume. Investigating the diving performance of marine mammals and seabirds, this book illustrates how physiological processes to extreme hypoxia and pressure are relevant to the advancement of our understanding of basic cellular processes and human pathologies. This book underscores the biomedical and ecological relevance of the anatomical, physiological and molecular/biophysical adaptations of these animals to enable further research in this area. An important resource for students and researchers, this text not only provides an essential overview of recent research in the field, but will stimulate further research into the behaviour and physiology of diving.
