Errata
Page 7, Fig 1.6 caption: the normalisation of the effusion formula should be E/(kBT)2 exp(–E/kBT)
Page 20, Fig. 1.17 caption. The original web page for energy-dependent cross-sections is no longer available. Use the EXFOR library at https://www.nndc.bnl.gov/ instead.
Page 40, Fig. 2.10 caption. “unit call” should be “unit cell”.
Page 41, Fig. 2.11 caption. “unit call” should be “unit cell”.
Page 79, Eq. (3.25). There is a missing imaginary “i” in the exponential on the right-hand side.
Page 100, in the penultimate line of Section 4.1.1, “more more” should simply be “more”. [With thanks to Yishui Zhou.]
Page 106, margin note 9, “identify” should be “identity”.
Page 109, eqn. (4.51). The subscript n on sn should not be italic.
Page 144, eqn. (5.85). The factor coth(βћωs) should be coth(βћωs/2). [With thanks to Toby Perring.]
Page 204, eqn. (6.74). There is a missing bracket ")" in the second term on the right-hand side. It should read MS(Q)·PS. [With thanks to Miska Elliot.]
Page 245, Fig. 7.20 caption. The original web page for SPINVERT is no longer available. Use https://joepaddison.com/software/ instead.
Page 259, margin note 7. The web link to the McPhase software suite has changed. Use https://mcphase.github.io/webpage/ instead.
Page 285. A factor of ћ (hbar) is missing from the denominators of eqns (8.109) lines 3 and 4, (8.110) and (8.111). [With thanks to Asbjørn Preuss.]
Page 304, eqn. (8.188). In the expression for Sαα(q,ω), the factor |tan qa| should be |tan qa/2|. Note that the expression is for magnon creation only. [I spotted this one myself.]
Page 316, margin note 14. The unit of number density should be m–3 not m3.
Page 323 Eq. (9.50), the formula for reflectivity should be |r|2 not |r2|.
Page 334 Change "archeology" to "archaeology", which is the more usual spelling (also on pvii). Also, change "artefacts" to "objects" (artefacts are from humans, whereas palaeontology is concerned with animal and plant fossils). [With thanks to Alex Rodzinka.]
Page 338, eqn. (9.94). On the first line, the letters rcl appear by accident and should be omitted. [I spotted this one.]
Page 338, Fig. 9.23 caption, the formula for reflectivity should be |r|2 not |r2|. Similarly in the y-axis label of the figure.
Page 346, Table 10.1. The value of b2 for a cylinder should be –0.375. These coefficients are taken from Rouse (1970), where b2 was incorrectly printed as –0.0375. [My spot again!]
Page 389, Section 10.3, change ћ to |ћ| and Q to |Q|.
Page 401, Section 10.3.4 tenth line, “eqn (10.37” should be “eqn (10.37)”.
Page 421, eqn (C.1) change P(c) to P.
Page 443, margin note 37. The original link to the Cowan code no longer works. Use https://www.tcd.ie/physics/research/groups/xray-spectroscopy/CowanCode.php instead.
Page 473, Ref Brown, magnetic form factors (CCSL). The original link no longer works. Use https://www2017.ill.eu/sites/ccsl/html/ccsldoc.html instead.
