Students are naturally drawn to quantum science by the intriguing
behaviors of small particles. However, they can also be intimidated
by the lengthy and complicated treatment found in the classroom.
Understanding Quantum Science: A Concise Primer for Students of
Chemistry, Biochemistry, and Physics is a highly accessible book
that offers students an opportunity to grasp the most fascinating
of quantum topics, without the intimidation. To be sure, math is
necessary, but it is introduced as needed and kept concise. The
emphasis is on the science: a certain differential equation can be
solved, and when it is, we find the energies that hydrogen atom
electrons are allowed to have. Each concept is developed in this
manner, keeping focus on how and why it arises, and on the
intriguing consequences. This book provides a brief tour of some of
the wonders of quantum science. But it is more than that, it is
designed to be the most concise tour possible that truly explains
how these wonders arise so that you can develop a working
understanding of quantum concepts. If your goal is loftier and you
wish to become a quantum specialist, the conceptual groundwork
presented here, along with rationalization of the mathematics
required, will position you well for higher level classes.

A comprehensive review of the many new developments in the growing
food processing and packaging field Revised and updated for the
first time in a decade, this book discusses packaging implications
for recent nonthermal processing technologies and mild food
preservation such as high pressure processing, irradiation, pulsed
electric fields, microwave sterilization, and other hurdle
technologies. It reviews typical nonthermal processes, the
characteristics of food products after nonthermal treatments, and
packaging parameters to preserve the quality and enhance the safety
of the products. In addition, the critical role played by packaging
materials during the development of a new nonthermal processed
product, and how the package is used to make the product attractive
to consumers, is discussed. Packaging for Nonthermal Processing of
Food, Second Edition provides up to date assessments of consumer
attitudes to nonthermal processes and novel packaging (both in the
U.S. and Europe). It offers a brand new chapter covering smart
packaging, including thermal, microbial, chemical, and light
sensing biosensors, radio frequency identification systems, and
self-heating and cooling packaging. There is also a new chapter
providing an overview of packaging laws and regulations in the
United States and Europe. Covers the packaging types required for
all major nonthermal technologies, including high pressure
processing, pulsed electric field, irradiation, ohmic heating, and
others Features a brand new chapter on smart packaging, including
biosensors (thermal-, microbial-, chemical- and light-sensing),
radio frequency identification systems, and self-heating and
cooling packaging Additional chapters look at the current
regulatory scene in the U.S. and Europe, as well as consumer
attitudes to these novel technologies Editors and contributors
bring a valuable mix of industry and research experience Packaging
for Nonthermal Processing of Food, Second Edition offers many
benefits to the food industry by providing practical information on
the relationship between new processes and packaging materials, to
academia as a source of fundamental knowledge about packaging
science, and to regulatory agencies as an avenue for acquiring a
deeper understanding of the packaging requirements for new
processes.

This is an EXACT reproduction of a book published before 1923. This
IS NOT an OCR'd book with strange characters, introduced
typographical errors, and jumbled words. This book may have
occasional imperfections such as missing or blurred pages, poor
pictures, errant marks, etc. that were either part of the original
artifact, or were introduced by the scanning process. We believe
this work is culturally important, and despite the imperfections,
have elected to bring it back into print as part of our continuing
commitment to the preservation of printed works worldwide. We
appreciate your understanding of the imperfections in the
preservation process, and hope you enjoy this valuable book.
