In this book, readers gain access to real scientific data pertaining to the science of sound production, promoting graph-reading, comparison, contrast, and calculation skills. Graphs show data from the following scientific instruments: Sound Level Meter Tuner This book allows readers to analyze real data without purchasing expensive lab equipment. These data from musical instruments (strings, woodwinds, brass, percussion) can be used for lesson plans by teachers and parents. The musical instruments in this book include violin, flute, clarinet, saxophone, oboe and bassoon reeds, trumpet, trombone, 5 types of recorders (garklein, sopranino, soprano, alto, tenor, and bass), xylophone, drum pad, cymbals, gong, maracas, guiro, claves, triangle, maracas, wood block, castanets, Tibetan bowl, tuning fork, and voice. Bonus Material: Charts comparing tuning systems, instructions on calculating frequencies for different notes and scales, and derivation of the power series underlying just intonation tuning and scales are included. Pictures of the scientific instruments and musical instruments used in Volumes 1 and 2, sample setup pictures and discussion questions regarding laboratory equipment, and pictures of a comparison hydraulic experiment are also included.

The Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) is the ultimate tool to see and measure structures on the nanoscale and to probe their elemental composition and electronic structure with sub-nanometer spatial resolution. Recent technological breakthroughs have revolutionized our understanding of materials via use of the TEM, and it promises to become a significant tool in understanding biological and biomolecular systems such as viruses and DNA molecules. This book is a practical guide for scientists who need to use the TEM as a tool to answer questions about physical and chemical phenomena on the nanoscale.
