Optical Techniques for Solid State Materials Characterization, Editor Rohit Prasankumar (CRC Press)

www.crcpress.com Watch Rohit Prasankumar, editor of the book Optical Techniques for Solid State Materials Characterization, speak at CLEO 2012 about how optical techniques give insight into optical, electronic, magnetic, and structural characteristics of solids, in particular basic and more advanced methods for temporally and spatially resolving material properties. Book Features • Enables researchers with varied experience to use a range of optical techniques • Presents useful information on common light sources, optical components, detectors, spectrometers, and cryostats • Includes in-depth descriptions of time-integrated, time-resolved, and spatially resolved optical techniques for characterizing simple and complex materials • Describes the tools needed to implement a particular optical experiment aimed at characterizing one or more specific material properties • Covers a broad range of relevant techniques, including Raman scattering, photoluminescence, pump-probe spectroscopy, four-wave mixing, and near-field scanning optical microscopy

I received some questions. The first question Many pets seem to have been abandoned in the forbidden zone. What were the circumstances where pets were abandoned? Before the catastrophe, did most pets live indoors with the family, as they do here in the states? Were the pets considered members of the family? If so, how sad it must have been for their owners to abandon them. Why were they abandoned, rather than evacuated with the owners? Are there persons who are trying to help the abandoned animals? This is an extremely sad thing and even I try not to think about it cuz it tears me. Of course the pets were treated like their family members like in US. Most of them are cats and dogs. Some had them in house and some outside. They couldn't take them together because the evacuating order was too sudden, and some had to take bus to come down to Kanto area, some had to go to shelters, where you can't live with animals. Owners left lots of food but some were found dead because the ring became too tight or ate all the food. Dogs are still easier to survive but cats are having more difficulties to survive in cold. Sure there are lots of volunteer to feed the left animals and try to find new owners and anything, but because there are too much, they can't take care about all of them. and it's not just food they need. They need affection and human besides them. It's too awful to describe with words. Today I heard a dog found in alerting zone got lymphoma malignum. They are starving ...
