Austerity Britain, 1945-1951 by David Kynaston
This book presents state-of-the-art techniques for radiation hardened high-resolution Time-to-Digital converters and low noise frequency synthesizers. Throughout the book, advanced degradation mechanisms and error sources are discussed and several ways to prevent such errors are presented. An overview of the prerequisite physics of nuclear interactions is given that has been compiled in an easy to understand chapter. The book is structured in a way that different hardening techniques and solutions are supported by theory and experimental data with their various tradeoffs.
- Based on leading-edge research, conducted in collaboration between KU Leuven and CERN, the European Center for Nuclear Research
- Describes in detail advanced techniques to harden circuits against ionizing radiation
- Provides a practical way to learn and understand radiation effects in time-based circuits
- Includes an introduction to the underlying physics, circuit design, and advanced techniques accompanied with experimental data
David Kynaston has been a professional historian since 1973 and has written nineteen books, including The City of London, a widely acclaimed four-volume history, and WG's Birthday Party, an account of the Gentleman v. Players match at Lord's in July 1898. He is the author of Austerity Britain, 1945-51, Family Britain, 1951-57 and Modernity Britain, 1957-1959, the first three titles in a series of books covering the history of post-war Britain (1945-79) under the collective title 'Tales of a New Jerusalem'.
