This unique book demonstrates the current status, and future potential, of millimetre wavelength (MMW) spectrometry as a means of quantitative analysis of gaseous mixtures. After outlining the spectroscopic theory required, the authors then go on to discuss the components of an MMW cavity spectrometer, concentrating on compact, automatic, low-cost instruments. Other topics covered include solid state MMW sources with both cryogenically cooled and room temperature detectors. Post-detector signal processing, smoothing, filtering and spectral profile fitting are also discussed. The book concludes with a look at the future of the technique, in areas such as millimetre wave-over-fibre technology. Quantitative Millimetre Wavelength Spectrometry will be welcomed by practitioners in both industry and academia.

Naval Law is a comprehensive work focusing on military justice, military criminal and administrative law, international law, and the law of armed conflict in the naval service. Although attorneys and law students may find the text a helpful primer on these topics, the book is primarily intended for use by midshipmen, undergraduates and others interested in military law and the law of war. Actual courts-martial and other legal cases, treaties, statutes, instructions, regulations, and historical events are presented and discussed throughout the book. Throughout the text, issues designed to promote both understanding and critical analysis of the material presented are posed to the reader. The study questions at the end of each chapter are intended to focus attention on fundamental aspects of naval law and to challenge the reader’s understanding of these concepts.
