The Scythica Vindobonensia, the new fragments on Gothic incursions into Roman provinces in the Balkans in the middle of the third century AD that were revealed some years ago in a Greek palimpsest at the Austrian National Library in Vienna (ÖNB), are commonly considered as one of the most important additions of the last decades to the corpus of texts from classical Antiquity. Tere is a high degree of confdence among scholars in supposing that the fragments come from the lost work Scythica written in Greek by the third-century historian P. Herennius Dexippus (Δέξιππος) of Athens. The new fragments have hence also been called Dexippus Vindobonensis. In his Scythica, Dexippus recorded wars of the Romans with the Goths (and other tribes) whom he called Scythians.
The work had been hitherto known only from excerpts and quotes by later authors. Eight pages of a Byzantine manuscript copy of the ancient text have survived hidden underneath the visible surface of the last four parchment folios of the Vienna manuscript Historicus graecus 73, f. 192r -195v4. The copy is written in a Greek calligraphic minuscule which has been estimated by palaeographers to be of the middle or the second half of the eleventh century. In the thirteenth century, the text (on each of the eight pages arranged in one column, with 30 lines per page) was washed of the parchment and the valuable material made from animal skin was re-used for Christian texts. The new writing largely covered the faded remnants of the original text. It thus became hidden from the human eye for more than seven hundred years. Its discovery by Jana Grusková, a classical philologist specialized in the transmission of Greek texts, resulted from a systematic review of all Greek palimpsests kept at the Austrian National Library in Vienna at the beginning of the twenty-first century and a detailed examination of the four folios in 2007-20097.
Currently, storage of electric energy is becoming more and more interesting in terms of applicability and efficiency. One way is the electrochemical storage by already well‐developed battery‐systems. This textbook provides an introduction into physical and chemical processes necessary for battery application.
This book fulfills its intension to serve graduate students of electrical engineering as an introduction into the field of batteries. Even students and interested readers of other faculties might find an introduction in physical and chemical background of batteries.
You Ask – ACEnano Replies
(2020)
The workshop starts with introductory information about the workshop and the H2020 project ACEnano, followed by two expert round tables, focussing on how the project could address regulator and industry needs, respectively. This is be followed by parallel sessions on tools (based on preferences expressed by those registered to attend, see “Questions”) and finally a question-and-answer session with the attendees.
The experts invited in Round Table 1 have been prepared to answer to questions related to obstacles and advantages for stakeholders such as SMEs to use the ACEnano approaches/tools. Standardisation needs are discussed.
Since data processing has now also found its way into materials science, there has been a great demand from users for a corresponding textbook. This book provides a guide to the latest advances of materials informatics and data mining for materials science. 46 authors introduce readers to methods, present tools and case studies to illustrate the power of materials informatics within this new field of application.
This paperback issue of the 2007 hardcover version within the “Corrosion Engineering Handbook” series presents various materials and methods for controlling and protecting against corrosion instead of using expensive alloys to construct a tank or processing vessel.
This book is a very comprehensive collection of the current knowledge about applied linings and coatings. So, it fulfills its intension, “that regardless of what is being built, … information for … whoever is responsible for the selection of material of construction will be found in this book to enable them to avoid unnecessary loss of material through corrosion”, to a very large extent.
Gold nanocubes with a monodispersed size distribution (edge = 55 nm) deposited on a silicon wafer. These tiny uniform cubes were produced as reference nanoparticles within the EMPIR project nPSize - Improved traceability chain of nanoparticle size measurements. SEM image acquired at 10 kV with an in-lens secondary electron detector. Image colored in ImageJ using LUT “Orange hot.” Published in Microscopy and Microanalysis 25(S2) (2019) 2328.

This book introduces to aspects to be considered when dealing with coatings and linings. Philip A. Schweitzer covers and compares a variety of specific coatings and their applications. In 18 chapters he divided the content into two main parts: linings and coatings.
All professionals involved in design and maintenance processes get by this book a compact survey of necessary considerations which needs to be done when applying surface protection measures. The literature references at the end of some chapters support the readers finding additional information about the special topic, mainly written by the author himself. Since this newly issued paperback edition is a 1:1 re‐print of the 2001 hardcover version, neither current publications are referenced, nor revisions were made.
his fully updated examination of sustainable processes for gaseous and liquid biofuels production, published for the second time within the series “Biomass, Biofuels, Biochemicals”, provides 33 contributions made by 120 authors. They present a holistic view of biofuels in research, operation, scale‐up and application. Comparing to the first edition, all chapters have been updated and new chapters covering topics of current interest, including sustainability and biohydrogen have been added.
By its wide overview on existing technologies, this book provides state‐of‐the‐art information and knowledge to the desired readership, like post‐graduates, researchers in the area of biofuels, wastewater treatment, alternate energy sources, renewable energy from biomass, chemical and biochemical engineers, microbiologists, biotechnologists working in academic and research institutes as well as in industry and governmental agencies.
The first edition of this book, published within the series “Materials Science – Metals and Alloys”, provides broad knowledge of this interesting and widely applied metal from manufacturing and production to finishing and application in 13 chapters, written by 29 contributors. Each chapter is separately concluded and ends with references used.
This book fulfills its intention of conveying comprehensive and cutting‐edge knowledge of magnesium alloys. It is useful for practicing engineers, researchers and students searching for an instructional and reference source.
