| Data table presenting the final results of a project to establish internationally agreed values for the thermodynamic properties of key chemical substances. Use of these recommended, internally consistent values is encouraged in the analysis of thermodynamic measurements, data reduction, and preparation of other thermodynamic tables. The table includes the standard enthalpy of formation at 298.15 K, the entropy at 298.15 K, and the quantity H ° (298.15 K) H °(0). The values given in the table represent the consensus judgement of an international group of experts. | |
| Covers all fields of scientific inquiry in which mass spectrometry can play a role, including chemistry, physics, geology, and environmental science as well as the biological, health, and life sciences. Fundamental subjects include instrumental principles, design, and demonstration, structures and chemical properties of gas phase ions, studies of thermodynamic properties, ion spectroscopy, chemical kinetics, mechanisms of ionisation, theories of ion fragmentation, cluster ions, and potential energy surfaces. Application papers focus primarily on the development or validation of a mass spectrometric method. Tables of contents available online. | ||
| An international project to study the interior structure and dynamics of the Sun. The SOI program was responsible for design and operation of the Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) instrument on board the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) spacecraft launched on 2 December 1995. As well as news and press releases about the project for the general public, there is a helioseismology bibliography and information about participation in the project and access to data for scientists and students. | ||
| Resource aimed at aimed at science students, about the fundamental principles of scientific knowledge, and those branches of science that have their basis in the principles of physics and chemistry. Covers measurement, kinematics and graphing, dynamics, work, power and energy, kinetic theory, temperature, and heat, waves, atomic and nuclear physics. | ||
| Online general physics book, with chapters on mechanics, fluids, electricity, magnetism, atomic physics, nuclear physics, thermodynamics, wave physics, symbols and abbreviations and biophysical chronology. | ||
| A guide to the Second Law of Thermodynamics, written in question and answer style, and suitable for non scientists. Also shows practical implications of the second law in everyday life, and information on entropy, gas mixing and endothermic processes. | ||
| Collection of slides explaining macroscopic thermodynamic properties in terms of microscopic properties of chemical systems.
