Light is a powerful tool for exploring the universe. By studying the light from distant galaxies, astronomers can learn about their composition, structure, and evolution. They can also use light to map the large-scale structure of the universe, which is the distribution of matter on scales larger than individual galaxies.One promising new technique for mapping the large-scale structure is called line intensity mapping (LIM). LIM involves measuring the intensity of light emitted at specific wavelengths, which correspond to specific elements and molecules. This light is emitted by galaxies and other objects throughout the universe, and by measuring its intensity at different locations, astronomers can create maps of the distribution of matter.LIM has a number of advantages over traditional methods of mapping the large-scale structure, such as galaxy surveys. First, LIM is more efficient, as it can be used to map large volumes of space without having to resolve individual galaxies. Second, LIM is more sensitive to faint light, which means that it can be used to map regions of the universe that are difficult to study with other methods.

Food packaging is a multidisciplinary subject involving, Food Science, Food Engineering, Food Processing and Preservation, Food Technology, Food Chemistry and Microbiology. This book includes 18 chapters related to mechanical and chemical pulps, the kinds of deteriorative reaction, food packaging metals and their corrosion, packaging of foods in metal containers, use of glass in food packing, plastic packaging-a modern dilemma, use of nanotechnology in foods and their packaging, thermoplastic polymers, important plastics processing methods, the packaging of cereals, dairy products, fruits and vegetables and meat and meat products, sterilization of packaging material and shelf life of packaged foods, importance of eco-friendly packaging and its sustainability and the vision for future food packaging. Readers with an interest in food packaging will find the information given in various chapters to be timely, representive of some of the best work in the field of food packaging, and of great value. We hope that this book shall be very useful for the students doing under graduation and post graduation in the disciplines of Food Science and Technology, Food Processing and Nutrition.

The science of food analysis has grown tremendously in its scope in recent years. New analysis techniques are being developed and existing techniques optimized. Moreover, there is a growing demand from students of various disciplines to acquire training in the fundamentals of quantitative and qualitative analysis with sufficient laboratory techniques to equip them for research work in these different specialized fields. To meet the demands and interests of such students, this book on food analysis has been prepared. This book provides information on general topics like sampling and sampling procedures and solvent extraction also which is very essential prior to application of various techniques needed to analyze foods in laboratory experiments. Other topics covered include information on the basic principles, procedures, advantages, limitations, and applications of gas liquid chromatography, high performance liquid chromatography, fluorescence techniques, fluorescence microscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, atomic absorption and emission spectroscopy, multivariate calibration etc. from the perspective of their use in the chemical analysis of foods. We hope that this book shall be ideal for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in food analysis and also an invaluable reference to professionals in the food industry.

Bakery Science and Cereal Technology is one of the important courses being offered to undergraduate students as a professional elective. Through this course the students shall acquire adequate knowledge of structure, nutrient composition and processing of various cereals particularly those which are used in bakery industry, milling of wheat, physico-chemical and functional properties of cereals, role and storage of ingredients used in baking, types and grades of flour, baked products prepared by hard and soft wheat, viz., bread, cakes, crackers, cookies, wafers etc, losses in baking, quality evaluation, standards, packaging and sale of bakery products, and prospects and problems of bakery industry. This book containing the above information can also be used as a technical guide and reference book to personnel engaged in bakeries.
