Noncrystalline (NC) solids, as is well known, lack the long range order of crystals. Accordingly, they exhibit scattering, e.g., x-ray, electron, and neutron, but not the diffraction patterns characteristic of crystals. The intensity distributions from NC solids are usually transformed into radial distribution functions (RDF), but the interpretation of the RDF's is not unique. The lack of long-range order, and the non-uniqueness of the structural interpretation, have constituted the main obstacles to the usual solid state physics approach which has been so successful in dealing with crystals. As a corrolary, questions of local order and structure have frequently been de-emphasized. This monograph contains a collection of chapters many of which emphasize local-structure and chemical bonding as opposed to long-range order. Most of the chapters were chosen from talks given at the international symposium, "Structure and Bonding in Noncrystalline Solids," held in Reston, Virginia in May of 1983. Other chapters, however, were simply submitted independently of the Reston conference. Thus, this book is not a proceedings of that conference, nor was it ever intended to be. The chapters presented here range from theory of bonding and structure, to structurally oriented measurements of various kinds, e.g., ESR, Raman, to more applied chapters. Our goal was to produce a monograph that enhances understanding of the structures of NC solids.
Does an Acoustic Space exist? There are four arguments brought forward in favour of the existence of a special acoustic space. The first concerns the originallocalisation of the two places of the riglit and left ear. It is clear that the tonic impressions without the aid of optic-haptic perceptions are not related to the head, to say nothing of ascertaining the existance of an acoustic space. The second argument is the original localisation in the inside of the skull. If this conception were correct, there could for every field of the senses, the impressions of which are not localised in our optic and haptic space, be ascertained special sense-spaces in analogy with the acoustic space, e.g. a special temperature- and pain-space. The third argument, the localisation of the subjective acoustic im- pressions in the inside of the skull, is cancelled by the proofs produced against the second argument. The fourth argument, which has most claimed the interest of psy- chologists, in favour of the existence of an acoustic space, bears upon the supposed original spacious character of the acoustic impressions.
