Summary |
The generation of megagauss fields for science and technology is an exciting area at the extremes of parameter space, involving the application and controlled handling of extremely high power and energy densities in small volumes and on short time scales. New physical phenomena, technological challenges, and the selection and development of materials, together create a unique potential and synergy resulting in fascinating discoveries and achievements. This book is a collection of the contributions of an international conference, which assembled the leading scientists and engineers worldwide wo |
Notes |
"Megagauss VIII was held in connection with the conference "Physical Phenomena at High Magnetic Fields - III" (PPHMF-III) in order to encourage and facilitate cross-links between the two scientific communities"--Page xiii |
