Studies of Tangible Cultural Heritage with Portable Stray-Field NMR
Sensors for stray-field nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) have been employed to measure tangible cultural heritage since they were first conceived.Although NMR is a method with inherently low sensitivity and requires larger amounts of time than many other techniques, it is non-destructive and grants access to spin densities and relaxation times, physical quantities which are exclusive to the method.This thesis describes theory, instrumentation, and applications of unilateral NMR in the field of cultural heritage. The detection zone of an NMR-MOUSE, a sensor developed and maintained by past and present members of the group of Professor Blümich, is mapped through back-projection for the first time.Traditionally, the signal arising from the detection volume was averaged over multiple scans until the signal response was satisfactory.In this work, an algorithm is proposed to improve the signal-to-noise ratio in magnetization decays as a method of post processing an output, which contains the individual data from smaller sub-experiments. One of the most prominent fields of application for unilateral NMR is the investigation of porosity in stone and soil.In a study of ancient mortars in Herculaneum, a city buried by the ashes of Mount Vesuvius during the famous eruption of 79 AD, the profiles of over 60 sites, fragments and mock-ups were compared for the first time with methods known from statistics and pattern recognition.The effects of high temperatures up to 900 °C on low and high-density sandstone were determined in terms of their transverse relaxation times.Mock-ups were cross referenced with actual walls and fragments to assess the damage of the western wall of the burnt down Mackintosh Library in Glasgow. Studies of paint show how stray-field sensors can help evaluating solvent activity and their potential as cleaning agents.Relaxation times assess embrittlement and transient softening caused by such treatments.Furthermore, the potential to detect or even discriminate natural and artificial aging of binder polymers is explored. The impressive sound and quality of historic instruments by Stradivari and his contemporaries is still unsurpassed in the opinion of many musicians, but the reason for this remains controversial.When tested with unilateral NMR, violins and violas from the golden age of luthiers revealed a homogeneous wood density throughout their maple back plate.Shorter relaxation times at the wood surfaces may be traces of previous treatments. Even though unilateral NMR equipment was claimed to be portable for many years, it had relied on grid power and shielding from weather.This work presents the efforts of measuring biofilms in Yellowstone National Park, relying on battery power to perform the non-destructive tests.An NMR-MOUSE was constructed and waterproofed to detect biofilms under water and in-situ.

The Field of Cultural Production : Essays on Art and Literature
The Field of Cultural Production brings together Bourdieu's most important writings on art, literature and aesthetics.Bourdieu develops a highly original approach to the study of literary and artistic works, addressing many of the key issues that have preoccupied literary, art and cultural criticism in the late twentieth century: aesthetic value and judgement, the social contexts of cultural practice, the role of intellectuals and artists, and the structures of literary and artistic authority. Bourdieu elaborates a theory of the cultural field which situates artistic works within the social conditions of their production, circulation and consumption.He examines the individuals in institutions involved in making products: not only the writers and artists, but also the publishers, critics, dealers, galleries and academies.He analyses the structure of the cultural field itself, as well as its position within the broader social structures of power. The essays gathered together in this volume examine a variety of substantive topics, including Flaubert's point of view, Manet's aesthetic revolution, the historical creation of the pure gaze, and the relationship between art and power.The Field of Cultural Production will be of interest to students and scholars from a wide range of disciplines: sociology and social theory, literature, art and cultural studies.

Digital Cultural Heritage
This book provides an overview of various application spheres and supports further innovations needed in information management and in the processes of knowledge generation.The professions, organizations and scientific associations involved are unusually challenged by the complexity of the data situation.Cartography has always been the central field of application for georeferencing digital cultural heritage (DCH) objects.It is particularly important in enabling spatial relation analysis between any number of DCH objects or of their granular details.In addition to the pure geometric aspects, the cognitive relations that lead to knowledge representation and derivation of innovative use processes are also of increasing importance.Further, there is a societal demand for spatial reference and analytics (e.g. the extensive use of cognitive concepts of "map" and "atlas" for a variety of social topics in the media).There is a huge geometrical-logical-cognitive potential for complex, multimedia, digital-cultural-heritage databases and stakeholders expect handling, transmission and processing operations with guaranteed long-term availability for all other stakeholders.In the future, whole areas of digital multimedia databases will need to be processed to further our understanding of historical and cultural contexts.This is an important concern for the information society and presents significant challenges for cartography in all these domains. This book collects innovative technical and scientific work on the entire process of object digitization, including detail extraction, archiving and interoperability of multimedia DCH data.

What are the differences between an electric field, a magnetic field, and a gravitational field?
An electric field is created by electric charges and exerts a force on other charges. A magnetic field is created by moving electric charges and exerts a force on other moving charges. A gravitational field is created by mass and exerts a force on other masses. While all three fields are fundamental forces in nature, they have different sources and effects on objects within their influence.

What are the differences between a gravitational field, an electric field, and a magnetic field?
A gravitational field is a region in which a mass experiences a force due to gravity, while an electric field is a region in which a charged particle experiences a force due to an electric field. A magnetic field is a region in which a moving charged particle experiences a force due to a magnetic field. The key difference between these fields is the type of force they produce and the type of particles that interact with them. Gravity affects all masses, electric fields affect charged particles, and magnetic fields affect moving charged particles.

Can field mice be kept with other field mice?
Yes, field mice can be kept with other field mice as long as they are properly introduced and have enough space to establish their own territories. It is important to provide a large enough enclosure with plenty of hiding spots and enrichment to prevent aggression and territorial disputes. Additionally, it is best to keep mice of the same sex together to prevent breeding. Regular monitoring of their behavior and providing proper care is essential for keeping field mice together successfully.
