Introduction to Mesoscopic Physics
ISBN: 9780195101676 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Mesoscopic physics" refers to the physics of structures larger than a nanometer (one billionth of a meter) but smaller than a micrometer (one millionth of a meter). This size range is the stage on which the exciting new research on submicroscopic and electronic and mechanical devices is being done. This research often crosses the boundary between physics and engineering, since engineering such tiny electronic components requires a firm grasp of quantum physics. Applications for the future may include such wonders as microscopic robot surgeons that travel through the blood stream to repair...

Hidden Attraction: The Mystery and History of Magnetism
ISBN: 9780195106558 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Long one of nature's most fascinating phenomena, magnetism was once the subject of many superstitions. Magnets were thought useful to thieves, effective as a love potion or as a cure for gout or spasms. They could remove sorcery from women and put demons to flight and even reconcile married couples. It was said that a lodestone pickled in the salt of sucking fish had the power to attract gold. Today, these beliefs have been put aside, but magnetism is no less remarkable for our modern understanding of it. In Hidden Attraction, Gerrit L. Verschuur, a noted astronomer and National Book Award...

Appearance and Reality: An Introduction to the Philosophy of Physics
ISBN: 9780195115154 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Appearance and Reality: An Introduction to the Philosophy of Physics addresses quantum mechanics and relativity and their philosophical implications, focusing on whether these theories of modern physics can help us know nature as it really is, or only as it appears to us. The author clearly explains the foundational concepts and principles of both quantum mechanics and relativity and then uses them to argue that we can know more than mere appearances, and that we can know to some extent the way things really are. He argues that modern physics gives us...

Impact!: The Threat of Comets and Asteroids
ISBN: 9780195119190 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Most scientists now agree that some sixty-five million years ago, an immense comet slammed into the Yucatan, detonating a blast twenty million times more powerful than the largest hydrogen bomb, punching a hole ten miles deep in the earth. Trillions of tons of rock were vaporized and launched into the atmosphere. For a thousand miles in all directions, vegetation burst into flames. There were tremendous blast waves, searing winds, showers of molten matter from the sky, earthquakes, and a terrible darkness that cut out sunlight for a year, enveloping the planet in freezing cold. Thousands of...

In The Search for Unity the authors reveal how the quest for the One h as driven all the great breakthroughs in science. They show how the Gr eeks searched for the fundamental element in all things; how Galileo u nified the earth with the heavens, by discovering valleys and mountain s on the moon; and how Newton created a single theory to describe the motion of the celestial bodies. With unequaled clarity, they explore t he work of the most famous unifier of all, Albert Einstein, who melded space and time into a combined space-time concept, and then embarked on an unsuccessful search for a...

Einstein's Universe: Gravity at Work and Play
ISBN: 9780195142853 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. On Albert Einstein's seventy-sixth and final birthday, a friend gave him a simple toy made from a broomstick, a brass ball attached to a length of string, and a weak spring. Einstein was delighted: the toy worked on a principle he had conceived fifty years earlier when he was working on his revolutionary theory of gravity--a principle whose implications are still confounding physicists today.
Starting with this winning anecdote, Anthony Zee begins his animated discussion of phenomena ranging from the emergence of galaxies to the curvature of space-time, evidence for the existence of...

The Biggest Bangs: The Mystery of Gamma-Ray Bursts, The Most Violent Explosions in the Universe
ISBN: 9780195145700 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Gamma-ray bursts are about ten times more energetic than the most powerful supernovae. At their peak, they are the brightest objects in space, about 100,000 times brighter than an entire galaxy. In The Biggest Bangs, astrophysicist Jonathan Katz offers a fascinating account of the scientific quest to unravel the mystery of these incredible phenomena. With an eye for colorful detail and a talent for translating scientific jargon into plain English, Katz ranges from the accidental discovery of gamma-ray bursts (by a Cold War satellite system monitoring the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty) to the...

Designed as an upper-level undergraduate/beginning graduate text and as a reference for research scientists, Modern Problems in Classical Electrodynamics addresses a wide range of topics in modern physics--including lasers and nonlinear optics--that are not found in other texts. The book begins with relativistic mechanics and field theory, partly because they lend unity and beauty to electrodynamics, and also because relativistic concepts appear frequently throughout the book. Electrostatics and magnetostatics, waves, continuous media, nonlinear optics, diffraction, and radiation by moving...

Cellular Computing
ISBN: 9780195155396 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The completion of the first draft of the human genome has led to an explosion of interest in genetics and molecular biology. The view of the genome as a network of interacting computational components is well-established, but researchers are now trying to reverse the analogy, by using living organisms to construct logic circuits. The potential applications for such technologies is huge, ranging from bio-sensors, through industrial applications to drug delivery and diagnostics. This book would be the first to deal with the implementation of this technology, describing several working...

Nonextensive Entropy: Interdisciplinary Applications
ISBN: 9780195159776 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 440 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. A great variety of complex phenomena in many scientific fields exhibit power-law behavior, reflecting a hierarchical or fractal structure. Many of these phenomena seem to be susceptible to description using approaches drawn from thermodynamics or statistical mechanics, particularly approaches involving the maximization of entropy and of Boltzmann-Gibbs statistical mechanics and standard laws in a natural way. The book addresses the interdisciplinary applications of these ideas, and also on various phenomena that could possibly be quantitatively describable in terms of these ideas.
