ISBN: 1402011024 ISBN-13: 9781402011023 Publisher: Springer OUR PRICE: $208.99 Product Type: Paperback - Other Formats Published: January 2003 Annotation: The electromagnetics of complex media and metamaterials is a field that is making very rapid progress, so that books that are only a couple of years old become soon outdated. This book treats very many aspects of new materials from their electromagnetic response point of view: chiral, anisotropic, magnetic, photonic band gap media, and especially the new type of metamaterial, Veselago medium (material with simultaneously negative permittivity and permeability). Analytical, numerical, model-based, and experimental aspects are all considered. The book is intended for researchers and specialists in the fields of electromagnetics of new materials, but people who wish to enter the field will also find it a great help in getting acquainted with the problems in this area since the articles are mostly reviews that also include the most up-to-date information about electromagnetics and complex materials. |

| Publisher Description: The NATO Advanced Research Workshop Bianisotropics 2002 was held in th Marrakesh, Morocco, during 8-11 May 2002. This was the 9 International Conference on Electromagnetics of Complex Media, belonging to a series of meetings where the focus is on electromagnetics of chiral, bianisotropic, and other materials that may respond to electric and magnetic field excitations in special manner. The first of these meetings was held in Espoo, Finland (1993), and the following venues were Gomel, Belarus (1993), Perigueux, France (1994), State College, Pennsylvania, USA (1995), the rivers and channels between St. Petersburg and Moscow in Russia (1996), Glasgow, Scotland (1997), Brunswick, Germany (1998), and Lisbon, Portugal (2000). The present book contains full articles of several of the presentations that were given in the Marrakesh conference. In Bianisotropics 2002, 8 re- view lectures, 14 invited lectures and 68 contributed talks and posters were presented. Of these presentations, after a double review process, 28 contributions have achieved their final form on the pages to follow. From the contributions ofthe meeting, also another publication is being planned: a Special Issue of the journal Electromagnetics will be devoted to complex materials. Guest editors for this issue are Keith W. Whites and Said Zouhdi. The chairmen of Bianisotropics 2002conference were Said Zouhdi (Pierre et Marie Curie University - Paris) and Mohamed Arsalane (Cadi Ayyad University - Marrakesh), who were assisted by Scientists from Moroccan Universities and the International Bianisotropics Conference Committee. |
