HOLOGRAPHY AND ITS APPLICATION by Yu. I. OSTROVSKY, D. Sc. (Phys.-Math.)
The object of the book is to explain the main ideas principles and applications of holography-a superb method of recording and then reconstructing waves invented by Nobel Prize winner Professor Dennis Gabor. Contents. A Hologram and Its Properties. Holographic Experiments. The Main Applications of Holography.
INTRODUCTION TO PLASMA PHYSICS by B.M. Smirnov, D. Sc. (Phys.-Math.)
The book is intended for senior college and graduate students interested in the physics of a weakly ionized gas. It deals with the main concepts of the physics of weakly ionized plasmas and describes the characteristics of a practically realizable plasma. The book examines the properties of a weakly ionized gas, the propagation of radiation in such gases, and the elementary interactions between radiation and gas. As an example of a specific plasma it considers the properties of the weakly ionized gas of the earth's... Tovább

The book examines the properties of a weakly ionized gas, the propagation of radiation in such gases, and the elementary interactions between radiation and gas. As an example of a specific plasma it considers the properties of the weakly ionized gas of the earth's upper atmosphere.
PARTICLES, QUANTA, AND WAVES by Ya. A. SMORODINSKY, D. Sc. (Phys.- Math.)
An introduction to the present state and future outlook of quantum mechanics. The author exposes in original form the milestones in the history of the development of quantum-mechanical concepts and the difficuhies in understanding them.
The book is intended for college students, instructors and teachers of technical and high schools, specialists and all those interested in modern physics.
PROBLEMS OF WAVE OPTICS by S.E. FRISH, D. Sc. (Phys.-Math.) Corr. Mem. USSR Acad. Sci.
Acquaints the reader—scientist, student, teacher, or general reader—with the main outlines of modern wave theory of light, and in particular with ^ sources of coherent radiation of light (lasers) and their prospects in photography and microscopy.

This two-volume textbook explains the concepts and most important advances of modern physics without resort to higner mathematics. Avoids the traditional division between classical and modern physics and endeavours to present all material so as to develop quantum mechanical concepts.
The textbook is intended for secondary schools and as a teaching aid for physics teachers in general and technical secondary schools. Will be found useful by correspondence students studying 'A' level and first year physics. Contents of Vol. I. Motion and Forces. Conservation Laws. Molecular-kinetic Theory of Gases. Molecular Forces and States of Aggregation of Matter. Electrodynamics.
