Three new journals from Springer.Springer Science + Business (new York New York, state, United States New York, Middle Atlantic state of the United States. It is bordered by Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and the Atlantic Ocean (E), New Jersey and Pennsylvania (S), Lakes Erie and Ontario and the Canadian province of ) has begun the publication of three new journals, including "Food Biophysics biophysics, application of various methods and principles of physical science to the study of biological problems. In physiological biophysics physical mechanisms have been used to explain such biological processes as the transmission of nerve impulses, the muscle ," "Criminal Law & Philosophy" and "Intelligent Service Robots." "Criminal Law & Philosophy" will launch later this year and will be targeted to academics in philosophy, law and in criminology as well as practitioners with an interest in philosophical approaches to their practice, criminal law and criminal justice. Editorial focuses on crime and criminalization crim·i·nal·ize tr.v. crim·i·nal·ized, crim·i·nal·iz·ing, crim·i·nal·iz·es 1. To impose a criminal penalty on or for; outlaw. 2. To treat as a criminal. , the content, principles and structure of substantive criminal law, criminal justice and the criminal process, punishment and sentencing. It will be published quarterly. Subscription prices have not yet been set. The purpose of "Intelligent Service Robotics" is to foster the dissemination of information of new discoveries and novel technologies that advance the application of robotics for assisting humans. Content will cover a variety of topics ranging from intelligent robots serving humans in daily life or in a hazardous environment, embedded robotics, ambient intelligence In computing, ambient intelligence (AmI) refers to electronic environments that are sensitive and responsive to the presence of people. Ambient intelligence is a vision on the future of consumer electronics, telecommunications and computing that was originally developed in , intelligent space, virtual laboratories and intelligent vehicles. An annual subscription costs $151 for individuals and $488 for institutions. Also published quarterly, "Food Biophysics" publishes physical and chemical studies of food structure, properties and functions, and their relationship to the molecular structure and properties Of food materials. Springer said the studies involve research at the interface of food chemistry, biology and engineering and cover such topics as biopolymers, food processing Food processing is the set of methods and techniques used to transform raw ingredients into food for consumption by humans or animals. The food processing industry utilises these processes. operations, mechanisms of antimicrobial action, novel biophysical techniques Biophysical techniques are methods used for gaining information about biological systems on an atomic or molecular level. They overlap with methods from other branches of science. , sensory properties and molecular mechanisms of taste and smell. An annual subscription costs $51 for individuals and $250 for institutions. |
