Chie Miyazaki is wild and spoiled—the pampered child of a cadet line of the Imperial house of Japan. When she disappears in the United States accompanied by a slick Korean boyfriend, it sets off alarms among elite officials in Japan’s security apparatus. The Japanese want the problem solved quietly, so they seek out Connor Burke, prize student of Sensei Yamashita. Burke suspects that he’s being used, but he accepts the assignment out of honor for his revered sensei. A covert search and rescue operation turns into a confrontation with a North Korean sleeper cell, and Burke finally discovers the secret that drove Yamashita from Japan so many years ago and the power behind the decades-old connections that pull Yamashita back into danger in the service of the imperial family.

Автор: Jorg Flock
Год издания:
Bereits seit vielen Jahren wird die Rontgenfluoreszenzenzanalyse eingesetzt fur die Untersuchung kompakter, homogener Proben wie Metallen oder Glasern, aber auch fur die Analyse pulverformiger Proben wie etwa geologische Proben, Zement und Eisenlegierungen.

Im vorliegenden Buch erfolgt zunachst eine kurze Darstellung der physikalischen Zusammenhange bei der Erzeugung und Wechselwirkung von Rontgenstrahlung in der zu untersuchenden Probe. Dann werden die verschiedenen Methoden der Probenpraparation in Abhangigkeit von der Qualitat des Ausgangsmaterials sowie von der analytischen Zielstellung vorgestellt. Nach einer kurzen Beschreibung der verschiedenen Geratetypen, die in der Rontgenanalytik existieren, und deren Leistungsfahigkeit wird auf die Auswahl optimaler Messbedingungen eingegangen sowie die Aufbereitung der Messdaten erlautert, angefangen von deren Korrektur uber die Bestimmung der Intensitaten bis hin zum endgultigen Analysenergebnis, auch unter Berucksichtigung, Vermeidung und Korrektur moglicher auftretender Fehler.
