Mineral physics & crystallography : a handbook of physical constants

摘要: The purpose of this Handbook is to provide, in highly accessible form, selected critical data for professional and student solid Earth planetary geophysicists. Coverage topics authors were carefully chosen fulfill these objectives. These volumes represent the third version "Handbook Physical Constants." Several generations scientists have found handbooks' be most frequently used item their personal library. first was edited by F. Birch, J. Schairer, H.
