"Calorimetry is the most exhaustive compilation of the knowledge on calorimeters in particle physics... Wigmans keeps [his]finger on the pulse following new developments in calorimetry, performance studies of existing detectors and advances of science achieved via application of the calorimeters." -- Yuri Kharlov, Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics "The whole text is appreciable from the undergraduate level onwards. It can be fully recommended as a reference and as a practical introduction to anyone entering the field or working in it." -- Contemporary Physics [T]his second edition of Calorimetry fully meets the ambitious goals of its author: it is a well written and pleasant book, a reference manual for both beginners and experts, and a source of inspiration for future developments in the field." -- CERN Courier, [T]his second edition of Calorimetry fully meets the ambitious goals of its author: it is a well written and pleasant book, a reference manual for both beginners and experts, and a source of inspiration for future developments in the field." -- CERN Courier, "The whole text is appreciable from the undergraduate level onwards.

Synopsis
Particle physics is the science that pursues the age-old quest for the innermost structure of matter and the fundamental interactions between its constituents. Modern experiments in this field rely increasingly on calorimetry, a detection technique in which the particles of interest are absorbed in the detector. Calorimeters are very intricate instruments. Their performance characteristics depend on subtle, sometimes counter-intuitive design details.Written by one of the world's foremost experts, Calorimetry is the first comprehensive text on this topic. It provides a fundamental and systematic introduction to calorimetry. It describes the state of the art in terms of both the fundamental understanding of calorimetric particle detection, and the actual detectors that have been or are being built and operated in experiments. The last chapter discusses landmark scientific discoveries in which calorimetry has played an important role. This book summarizes and puts into perspective the work described in some 900 scientific papers, listed in the bibliography. This second edition emphasizes new developments that have taken place since the first edition appeared in 2000., Particle physics is the science that pursues the age-old quest for the innermost structure of matter and the fundamental interactions between its constituents.

    Great transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe
