Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This handbook consists of the latest innovations in vacuum science and technology with a strong orientation towards the vaccum practitioner. It covers many of the new vacuum pumps, materials, equipment and applications, as well as detailing the design and maintenance of modern vacuum systems. The authors emphasize performance, limitation and applications rather than theory.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Also issued online.
