All members of the Physics Department at the College of Applied Sciences offer their thanks and congratulations to His Excellency Prof. Yusri Eid Mustafa for his distinguished efforts and rich contributions in the field of authorship, translation, and publication. They wish him constant success and achievements.

The Physics Department at the College of Applied Sciences for 1439 A.H./2018 A.C. was distinguished in the field of publication and translation with rich and diverse productions, including authorship and translation to the Arabic Language. Some of the produced literature served as curricular books for teaching university students at colleges of Science and Engineering. There is also academic literature for postgraduate students at these colleges.

In this context, Dr. Yusri authored and co-authored the four following books:

1. Yusri Mustafa and Muhammad Surur Al-Shahawi, Al-Tahlil Al-Ali: Al-Nazariyyah wa Al-Tatbiq [Automatic Analysis: Theory and Application], Vol. 1: Al-Turuq Al-Taifiyyah [Spectrum Methods], Cairo: Dar Ebaid for Printing, Publication, and Distribution, 1439 A.H./2018 A.C. This book serves students of the final years as well as postgraduate students in the fields of physics, chemistry, materials science, industry and medicine. The book provides a detailed explanation of the common methods of automatic analysis, such as: spectrum-dependent systems, electro-spinning techniques, fluoroscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. It also explains, in detail, different types of vibrational spectroscopy, such as: infrared, laser, Raman and surface-enhanced Raman scattering, as well as x-ray spectroscopy and surface analysis using electronic microscopy. The book contains 662 pages.
2. Yusri Mustafa and Muhammad Surur Al-Shahawi, Al-Tahlil Al-Ali: Al-Nazariyyah wa Al-Tatbiq [Automatic Analysis: Theory and Application], Vol. 2: Turuq Al-Fasl Al-Kromotoghrafi wa Al-Turuq Al-Kahrabiyyah wa Mityafiyyat Al-Kutlah wa Al-Turuq Al-Harariyyah [Chromatographic, Electrical, Mass Spectrometry and Thermal Methods of Separation]. Cairo: Dar Ebaid for Printing, Publication, and Distribution, 1439 A.H./2018 A.C. This book serves students of the final years as well as postgraduate students in the fields of physics, chemistry, and materials science. The book provides a detailed explanation of the common methods of automatic analysis, such as: radiation chemistry, electrophoretic spectroscopy, electrolytical methods, DC, normal pulse, and differential pulse polarographic techniques. It also clearly explains voltammetry, chemical stripping methods, chromatography, as well as mass spectrometry and thermal methods, such as: thermodynamic scale, differential thermal analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry. The book contains 536 pages.
3. Yusri Mustafa, Al-Husayni Al-Tahir, and Taha Muhammad Al-Fawwal, Mabadi' Al-Ihsa' Al-Kimya'i wa Al-Bi'i [Principles of Chemical and Environmental Statistics], Cairo: Dar Ebaid for Printing, Publication, and Distribution, 1439 A.H./2018 A.C. This book is useful for the students of the Chemistry and Biology Departments. It presents the principles of statistics in the field of analytical chemistry and environmental sciences. The book contains 440 pages.
4. Michel W. Barsoum, Asasiyyat Al-Siramic [Fundamentals of Ceramics], translated by Yusri Mustafa, Ahmad Abdullah Al-Ghamdi and Muhammad Surur Al-Shahawi, Jeddah: Scientific Publishing Center, King Abdulaziz University, 1439 A.H./2018 A.C. This book is aimed at students of the final years in the colleges of Science and Engineering as well as postgraduate students interested in materials science, especially the field of ceramics. This book presents 16 sections on atomic bonding and structure, natural and chemical properties, micro-structure, crystal defects, and atomic and electronic transition in ceramics. It also discusses properties based on microstructures, such as: fracture toughness, magnetic and optical properties of electrical insulation, as well as the sintering process and the development of the microstructure of ceramics. This book contains 685 pages.
