1000 Fragen aus Genetik, Biochemie, Zellbiologie und Mikrobiologie
by Olaf WernerDiese Studienhilfe dient Ihrer Selbstkontrolle und damit der Vorbereitung auf Prüfungen. Sie bietet Ihnen die Möglichkeit, sich mit den vielfältigen Fragen in Ruhe zu Hause auseinanderzusetzen und Ihr Wissen eigenständig zu überprüfen; oder Sie nutzen die Fragen als Anregungen, wenn Sie sich in Lerngruppen gegenseitig abfragen. Die 1000 Fragen sollen Ihnen helfen, sich in Genetik/Molekularbiologie, Biochemie, Zellbiologie und Mikrobiologie zu vertiefen, und sind nach den vier Fachgebieten geordnet. Sie finden zu den wichtigsten Themen Multiple-Choice-Fragen mit in der Regel kurzen Antworten, die Sie am Ende des Buches nachschlagen können. Die Fragen sind bewusst unterschiedlicher Natur und in unterschiedlichen Schwierigkeitsgraden. Wissensfragen erfordern ein Faktenwissen, das Sie sich in der Regel mit dem Durcharbeiten von Vorlesungen und Lehrbüchern problemlos aneignen werden. Daneben finden Sie Verständnisfragen, deren Beantwortung voraussetzt, dass Sie die Zusammenhänge in der Biologie insgesamt oder innerhalb biologischer Einzelthemen verstanden haben. Mit den 1000 Fragen sollten Sie auf ideale Weise Ihr Wissen überprüfen und Ihre Lücken erkennen können.

109 East Palace: Robert Oppenheimer and the Secret City of Los Alamos
by Jennet ConantFrom the bestselling author of Tuxedo Park, the fascinating story of the 3,000 people who lived together in near confinement for more than two intense and conflicted years under J. Robert Oppenheimer and the world's best scientists to produce the Atomic Bomb and win World War II.They were told as little as possible. Their orders were to go to Santa Fe, New Mexico, and report for work at a classified Manhattan Project site, a location so covert it was known to them only by the mysterious address: 109 East Palace. There, behind a wrought-iron gate and narrow passageway just off the touristy old plaza, they were greeted by Dorothy McKibbin, an attractive widow who was the least likely person imaginable to run a front for a clandestine defense laboratory. They stepped across her threshold into a parallel universe--the desert hideaway where Robert Oppenheimer and a team of world-famous scientists raced to build the first atomic bomb before Germany and bring World War II to an end. Brilliant, handsome, extraordinarily charismatic, Oppenheimer based his unprecedented scientific enterprise in the high reaches of the Sangre de Cristo mountains, hoping that the land of enchantment would conceal and inspire their bold mission. Oppenheimer was as arrogant as he was inexperienced, and few believed the thirty-eight-year-old theoretical physicist would succeed. Jennet Conant captures all the exhilaration and drama of those perilous twenty-seven months at Los Alamos, a secret city cut off from the rest of society, ringed by barbed wire, where Oppenheimer and his young recruits lived as virtual prisoners of the U.S. government. With her dry humor and eye for detail, Conant chronicles the chaotic beginnings of Oppenheimer's by-the-seat-of-his-pants operation, where freshly minted secretaries and worldly scientists had to contend with living conditions straight out of pioneer days. Despite all the obstacles, Oppie managed to forge a vibrant community at Los Alamos through the sheer force of his personality. Dorothy, who fell for him at first sight, devoted herself to taking care of him and his crew and supported him through the terrifying preparations for the test explosion at Trinity and the harrowing aftermath of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Less than a decade later, Oppenheimer became the focus of suspicion during the McCarthy witch hunts. When he and James B. Conant, one of the top administrators of the Manhattan Project (and the author's grandfather), led the campaign against the hydrogen bomb, Oppenheimer's past left-wing sympathies were used against him, and he was found to be a security risk and stripped of his clearance. Though Dorothy tried to help clear his name, she saw the man she loved disgraced. In this riveting and deeply moving account, drawing on a wealth of research and interviews with close family and colleagues, Jennet Conant reveals an exceptionally gifted and enigmatic man who served his country at tremendous personal cost and whose singular achievement, and subsequent undoing, is at the root of our present nuclear predicament.

111 Calculation Exercises in the Field of Chemical Technology
by Günter JüptnerEveryday use in chemical production operations requires a complex bundle of basic knowledge for calculating various operating parameters and variables. This includes the application of mass and heat balances, the ideal gas law, the mass action law and electrochemistry. In addition, there are calculations for the pumping of liquids and for scale enlargement. The present work covers this subject area in a clear manner in the form of exercises. The author knows from many years of practical experience that such calculations are often not isolated problems, but complex issues in which various subject areas are coupled together. This fact is taken into account in this exercise book. It presents in a short and concise form the everyday challenges of calculations in a chemical plant and offers ways of solving them. Special basic operations are not treated, and reference is made to special works that treat such topics in detail. This exercise book offers the possibility of deepening the knowledge of solving the calculations that occur daily in a chemical production plant.
