Terminology and Definitions
1986
In order to eliminate as much misunderstanding as possible in the evaluation of various forms of vibration stress, it is necessary to define the technical physical concepts used (Table 1). In addition, the special medical terms are explained at the end of the book (p. 158).
Basic Physical Concepts

Mossbauer spectroscopy is based on recoilless emission and resonant absorption of γ-radiation by atomic nuclei. The aim of this chapter is to familiarize the reader with the concepts of nuclear γ-resonance and the Mossbauer effect, before we describe the experiments and relevant electric and magnetic hyperfine interactions in Chaps. 3 and 4. We prefer doing this by collecting formulae without deriving them; comprehensive and instructive descriptions have already been given at length in a number of introductory books ([7–39] in Chap. 1). Readers who are primarily interested in understanding their Mossbauer spectra without too much physical ballast may skip this chapter at first reading and p…

Resumen basado en el de la publicación Resumen en inglés Se muestra el importante papel de uno de los instrumentos más comunes, el péndulo, en la construcción del paradigma newtoniano. Del análisis de algunas aplicaciones interesantes llevadas a cabo por los mejores científicos de ese tiempo, se concluye que el uso apropiado del péndulo en el aula puede ser una manera fácil de introducir la evolución histórica y epistemológica de conceptos físicos básicos.
