HO \/ever, thei r uni versa 1 a pprec i at i on in the physics community as a genuine paradigm is very much a current develop- ment. All of us who have been associated with this recent wave of enthusiasm were impressed with the variety of applications, their inevitability once the mental contraint of linear normal modes is removed, and above all by the common mathematical structures underpinning applications with quite different (and often novel) physical manifestations. This has certainly been the situ- ation in condensed matter, and when, during the Paris Lattice Dynamics Con- ference (September 1977), one of us (T. S. ) first suggested a condensed matter soliton Meeting, the idea was strongly encouraged. It would provide an opportunity to exhibit the common mathematical problems, illuminate the new contexts, and thereby focus the subject of nonlinear physics at this embryonic stage of its evolution. The original conception was to achieve a balance of mathematicians and phy cis such that each would benefit from the other's expertise and out- look. In contrast to many soliton Meetings, hO \/ever, a deliberate attempt was made to emphasize physics contexts rather than mathematical details.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49615455781137,"sku":"GOR013360634","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50761619669265,"sku":"CIN0205379222G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51322579288337,"sku":"CIN0205379222VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0205379222.jpg?v=1750843199"},{"product_id":"anatomy-and-physiology-book-stephens-9780071177832","title":"Anatomy and Physiology","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49634954281233,"sku":"GOR002114342","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50971843395857,"sku":"GOR005032660","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53254940786961,"sku":"GOR001392525","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0071177833.jpg?v=1750737048"},{"product_id":"blood-of-the-wolf-book-stephens-9781916902916","title":"Blood of the Wolf","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49657374114065,"sku":"GOR013682373","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/191690291X.jpg?v=1750868152"},{"product_id":"thoughtless-book-sc-stephens-9781476717470","title":"Thoughtless","description":"\u003cb\u003eFrom #1 \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling author S.C.

In recent years, the U.S. has made several advances in high-energy laser technology, producing a megawatt-class laser, with several other countries not far behind. Combining lasers with space-based relay mirrors could offer the capability of transmitting a ground-based laser toward any point on the earth, an orbiting satellite, or a ballistic missile in flight. By the year 2035, several nations will likely have developed this capability, which will significantly affect U.S. national security. This paper examines the threat of laser\/relay mirror systems and recommends actions the U.S. should take to protect itself from a high-powered laser attack, as well as deterring hostile nations from employing such a system.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52777908863249,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52777909158161,"sku":"NIN9781249326977","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781249326977.jpg?v=1763918847"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-au\/collections\/author-books-by-stephens.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
