Critical Assembly: A Technical History of Los Alamos During the Oppenheimer Years, 1943-1945
ISBN: 9780521441322 / Angielski / Twarda / 1993 / 528 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This volume is a lucid and accurate history of the technical research that led to the first atomic bombs. The authors explore how the "critical assembly" of scientists, engineers, and military personnel at Los Alamos, responding to wartime deadlines, collaborated to create a new approach to large-scale research. The book opens with an introduction laying out major themes. After a synopsis of the prehistory of the bomb project, from the discovery of nuclear fission to the start of the Manhattan Engineer District, and an overview of the early materials program, the book examines the...

Out of the Crystal Maze: Chapters from the History of Solid-State Physics
ISBN: 9780195053296 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 728 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This landmark work chronicles the origin and evolution of solid state physics, which grew to maturity between 1920 and 1960. The book examines the early roots of the field in industrial, scientific and artistic efforts and traces them through the 1950s, when many physicists around the world recognized themselves as members of a distinct subfield of physics research centered on solids. The book opens with an account of scientific and social developments that preceded the discovery of quantum mechanics, including the invention of new experimental means for studying solids and the establishment...

No Boundaries: University of Illinois Vignettes
ISBN: 9780252072031 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Like any great university, the University of Illinois owes its prominence to the excellence of its faculty. In Lillian Hoddeson's No Boundaries, twenty-three scholars provide easily accessible vignettes about University of Illinois faculty who have made major contributions to their fields, to knowledge, and to the world. Here are many of the most inspiring--and often most amusing--people whose work elevated the University of Illinois into a world leader in a variety of areas. Their lives demonstrate again and again that the work of the University takes place as much away from campus as on it:...

Tunnel Visions: The Rise and Fall of the Superconducting Super Collider
ISBN: 9780226294797 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Starting in the 1950s, US physicists dominated the search for elementary particles; aided by the association of this research with national security, they held this position for decades. In an effort to maintain their hegemony and track down the elusive Higgs boson, they convinced President Reagan and Congress to support construction of the multibillion-dollar Superconducting Super Collider project in Texas--the largest basic-science project ever attempted. But after the Cold War ended and the estimated SSC cost surpassed ten billion dollars, Congress terminated the project in October 1993....
