The epic conclusion to the Mate Tracker series. My best friend is missing and I will bring death to the one who took her. My compass is gone. Nothing holds meaning anymore, and nothing will—not until I bring my best friend back home. It is all I want to do, but there is so much more going on. A sadistic Midnight Witch has a secret vendetta against one of the most powerful Skews in St. Louis. She is mass-producing monsters and sending them all over the city to sow chaos. As if that wasn’t enough to keep her busy, she develops a new vendetta against me after I ruin her plans. The witch with a “b” is totally insane and vows to kill everyone I love as payment for my interference. She makes good on her promise by going after my family and even my livelihood. But when she goes after the man I love, things reach a different level of messed up. Her magic is powerful, but so are my new skills and I will take her down, even if I go down with her. If you enjoy K.F. Breene, Shannon Mayer, Annette Marie, and CN Crawford then step into a conspiracy where you don’t know whom to trust.

Solid State Nuclear Track Detectors is a collection of papers that covers various aspects of solid state nuclear track detectors. The book presents 130 articles that cover the concerns in the mechanisms, operations, and applications of solid state nuclear track detectors. The materials in the text are thematically grouped into three parts. The book first discusses the fundamental mechanisms, which include determination of the screening parameter from measurements of differential energy loss and atomic displacement effects from heavy ion induced coulomb explosion. Next, the selection presents articles that deal with the methodology of detectors, such as experimental track widths of low energy heavy ions in nuclear emulsion and structure of light nuclei tracks. The remaining papers cover the fields of applications, such as nuclear fusion; prospection of radioactive and fissionable minerals; dosimetry; and autoradiography. The book will be of great use to researchers and practitioners of disciplines related to nuclear science.

The National Safety Council presents the fact sheet "Radon." Radon is a radioactive gas that can increase a person's risk of lung cancer. The fact sheet explains what radon is, how it works, how it effects one's health, and more.

Detailed closed-loop bandwidth and transient response approach is a subject rarely found in current literature. This innovative resource offers practical explanations of closed-loop radar tracking techniques in range, Doppler and angle tracking. To address analog closed loop trackers, a review of basic control theory and modeling is included. In addition, control theory, radar receivers, signal processors, and circuitry and algorithms necessary to form the signals needed in a tracker are presented. Digital trackers and multiple target tracking are also covered, focusing on g-h and g-h-k filters. Readers learn techniques for modeling digital, closed-loop trackers. The radar circuitry/block diagrams necessary for range, Doppler and angle tracking are presented and described, with examples and simulations included. Factors such as noise and Swerling type fluctuations are taken into account. In addition to numerous worked examples, this approachable reference includes MATLAB® code associated with analysis, simulations and figures. The book contains solutions to practical problems, making it useful for both novice and advanced radar practitioners. Software will be available for download on this page.

The track detector conference was held under the joint auspices of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe and the University of Bristol. This proceedings volume contains over 160 papers which cover the latest developments and applications of solid state nuclear track detectors in medicine, physics, chemistry, space research, geology and other fields.
