Old and New Questions in Physics, Cosmology, Philosophy, and Theoretical Biology: Essays in Honor of Wolfgang Yourgrau
ISBN: 9781468488326 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 920 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Simply to say that this is a collection of essays in honor of the late Wolfgang Yourgrau (1908-1979) is to explain, at least for-the obviously many-"insiders," the unusually wide-ranging title of the present volume. In a Foreword to the Proceedings of the First International Colloquium (focusing on logic, physical reality, and history), held at the University of Denver in May of 1966 under their leadership, Wolfgang Y ourgrau and Allen Breck wrote, in an oblique reference to C. P. Snow: "Indeed there are not two or three or four cultures: there is only one culture; our generation has lost its...

Microphysical Reality and Quantum Formalism: Proceedings of the Conference 'microphysical Reality and Quantum Formalism' Urbino, Italy, September 25th
ISBN: 9789027726865 / Angielski / Twarda / 1988 / 992 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Quantum mechanics has reached maturity as an a wesome scientific theory, and undeniably no experiment has so far produced any result conflic- ting with its predictions. Nevertheless, an increasing number of scholars are seriously questioning the limits of this discipline's validity, a fact that is eloquently attested to by the four international conferences devoted to the foundations of quantum theory which were held in 1987 alone - in Joensuu, Vienna, Gdansk, and Delphi, respectively. There is an increa ing awareness that the founding fathers of quantum mechanics have left behind a theory...

Selected Scientific Papers of Alfred Landé
ISBN: 9789401082662 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 557 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Theoretical physicists allover the world are acquainted with Lande's celebrated computation of the g factor or splitting factor or, more precisely, the magne togyric factor. The so-called anomalous Zeeman effect had intrigued, if not vexed, some of the most distinguished physicists of that time, such as Bohr, Sommerfeld, Pauli, and others. Lande realized that this recalcitrant effect was inseparable from the multiplet line structure - a breakthrough in understanding which he achieved in 1922 at the age of thirty four. It was in the same year that Lande discovered the interval rule for the...

Fundamental Problems in Quantum Physics
ISBN: 9789048146086 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. For many physicists quantum theory contains strong conceptual difficulties, while for others the apparent conclusions about the reality of our physical world and the ways in which we discover that reality remain philosophically unacceptable.
This book focuses on recent theoretical and experimental developments in the foundations of quantum physics, including topics such as the puzzles and paradoxes which appear when general relativity and quantum mechanics are combined; the emergence of classical properties from quantum mechanics; stochastic electrodynamics; EPR experiments and Bell's...

Between Quantum and Cosmos: Studies and Essays in Honor of John Archibald Wheeler
ISBN: 9780691629957 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 636 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The forty papers collected here honor one of the great scientists of our time--John Archibald Wheeler. In this volume are gathered the six issues of the journal Foundations of Physics (February through July 1986) that celebrate his seventy-fifth birthday. Enlivened by Professor Wheeler's celebrated drawings, the book captures and illuminates his many contributions to physics, including his discovery of the scattering matrix and his elucidation, with Niels Bohr, of the mechanism of nuclear fission, his many contributions to Einstein's theory of gravity (for instance, the black hole), his...

Waves and Particles in Light and Matter
ISBN: 9781461360889 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 628 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. From September 24 through 30, 1992 the Workshop on "Waves and Parti- cles in Light and Matter" was held in the Italian city of Trani in celebration of the centenary of Louis de Broglie's birth. As is well known, the relationship between quantum theory and ob- jective reality was one of the main threads running through the researches of this French physicist. It was therefore in a fitting tribute to him on his 90th birthday that ten years ago an international conference on the same subject was convened in Perugia. On that occasion, physicists from all over the world interested in the...

ISBN: 9789048164356 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 486 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. HISTORICAL PRELUDE Ettore Majorana's fame solidly rests on testimonies like the following, from the evocative pen of Giuseppe Cocconi. At the request of Edoardo Amaldi, he wrote from CERN (July 18, 1965): "In January 1938, after having just graduated, I was invited, essen tially by you, to come to the Institute of Physics at the University in Rome for six months as a teaching assistant, and once I was there I would have the good fortune of joining Fermi, Bernardini (who had been given a chair at Camerino a few months earlier) and Ageno (he, too, a new graduate), in the research of the...

Quantum Paradoxes and Physical Reality
ISBN: 9789401073301 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 374 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Although the debate about the true nature of the quantum behavior of atomic systems has never ceased, there are two periods during which it has been particularly intense: the years that saw the founding of quantum mechanics and, increasingly, these modern times. In 1954 Max Born, on accepting the Nobel Prize for his 'fundamental researches in quantum mechanics', recalled the depth of the disagreements that divided celebrated quantum theorists of those days into two camps: . . . when I say that physicists had accepted the way of thinking developed by us at that time, r am not quite correct:...

ISBN: 9789401064873 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 458 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Quantum theory is one of the most fascinating and successful constructs in the intellectual history of mankind. Nonetheless, the theory has very shaky philosophical foundations.
This book contains thoughtful discussions by eminent researchers of a spate of experimental techniques newly developed to test some of the stranger predictions of quantum physics. The advances considered include recent experiments in quantum optics, electron and ion interferometry, photon down conversion in nonlinear crystals, single trapped ions interacting with laser beams, atom-field coupling in micromaser...
