ELEMENTS OF SPACE PHYSICS, SECOND EDITION

By: SINGHAL, R. P.

Primarily intended for the undergraduate and postgraduate students of Physics, Space Physics, Astronomy and Space Physics, Astrophysics, Engineering Physics and Earth System Sciences, this concise and systematically organized text covers all the essential aspects of physical and chemical processes in the planetary spheres. This book is an attempt to collect various topics of solar system and planetary physics at one place in a comprehensive manner. It describes the phenomena of planetary atmospheres, ionospheres and magnetospheres. NEW TO THE SECOND EDITION The second edition, while retaining the thorough coverage of the various areas of space physics—Sun and its emissions, basic characteristics of the planetary system, their interaction with solar wind and plasma waves, aurora and airglow, planetary atmospheres with special reference to their composition and temperature, cosmic rays and cometary physics, throws light on a new chapter on Diffuse Aurora that discusses resonant wave particle interactions, observations of diffuse aurora, ECH wave observations, whistler mode wave observations, pitch angle diffusion and magnetosphere–ionosphere coupling. The text includes mathematical derivations followed by observations on each planet which is supported by numerous figures and tables. KEY FEATURES • Gives mathematical formulations in general, which can be applied to any planet. • Provides adequate number of illustrations. • Offers easy mathematical derivations using simple aids at appropriate places. • Includes a large number of literature references.

Introduction to Non-equilibrium Physical Chemistry

By: R. P. Rastogi

Introduction to Non-equilibrium Physical Chemistry presents a critical and comprehensive account of Non-equilibrium Physical Chemistry from theoretical and experimental angle. It covers a wide spectrum of non-equilibrium phenomena from steady state close to equilibrium to non-linear region involving transition to bistability, temporal oscillations, spatio-temporal oscillations and finally to far from equilibrium phenomena such as complex pattern formation, dynamic instability at interfaces, Chaos and complex growth phenomena (fractals) in Physico-chemical systems. Part I of the book deals with theory and experimental studies concerning transport phenomena in membranes (Thermo-osmosis,Electroosmotic ) and in continuous systems (Thermal diffusion,Soret effect) close to equilibrium Experimental tests provide insight into the domain of validity of Non-equilibrium Thermodynamics ,which is the major theoretical tool for this region. Later developments in Extended Irreversible Thermodynamics and Non-equilibrium Molecular dynamics have been discussed in the Appendix. Part II deals with non-linear steady states and bifurcation to multistability, temporal and spatio- temporal oscillations (Chemical waves). Similarly Part II deals with more complex phenomena such as Chaos and fractal growth occurring in very far from equilibrium region. Newer mathematical techniques for investigating such phenomena along with available experimental studies. Part IV deals with analogous non-equilibrium phenomena occurring in the real systems (Socio-political, Finance and Living systems etc.) for which physico-chemical systems discussed in earlier chapters provide a useful model for development of theories based on non-linear science and science of complexity. - The book provides a critical account of theoretical studies on non-equilibrium phenomenon from region close to equilibrium to far equilibrium - Experimental studies have been reported which provide test of the theories and their limitations - Impacts of the concepts developed in non-equilibrium Physical Chemistry in sociology, economics and other social science and living systems has been discussed

Grids of Change

Managing Power Games and Power Lines

By: R P Singh

Being the head honcho of a public sector enterprise is one of the most exacting or testing positions in the corporate world. Heading an archetypal corporate set-up where strengthening the bottom line is your sole objective is one thing; leading a corporation that has a crucial public service to perform while continuing to increase profits for its owners—the Government of India—is another. As chairman of PowerGrid.,one of India's leading utility companies, R.P. Singh was on the inside track of Indian business, government and policy for 12 long years—years spent not just reshaping power networking in India but also raising the benchmark in corporate governance. It wasn't always easy. Conservative, anti-reform forces had to be contested, rivals fought off, political and other influences contained. This book tells the story of how it was done. R.P. Singh reveals the inside workings of India's government-owned business sector, the saga of how a start-up with borrowed staff and facilities was built into a public-sector jewel and one of the leading power grid operators of the world. This is a fascinating business book: part memoir, part management manual, part survival guide.
