In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird versucht, aus verschieden artigen, durch hochenergetische Photonen an Kernen induzierten Reaktionen, AufschluB Uber die Absorptionsmechanismen von Photonen und die anschlieBenden Kernumwandlungen zu bekommen. Aus den Reaktionsprodukten der Photospaltung, der Spallation und aus den Energiespektren von Protonen, Tritonen, 3He- und 4He-Teilchen sollen RUckschlUsse auf den Umwandlungsmechanis mus der in den Kern eingebrachten Energie gezogen werden. Die hier untersuchten Reaktionen wurden mit Bremsstrahlung von 0. 45 - 2. 2 GeV Endenergie induziert und verglichen...

Captain Mackenzie Calhoun has often been accused of playing God, but he has never faced off against real gods -- until now. As Captain Kirk did before him, Calhoun has encountered beings of unnatural power and abilities verging on godhood, and who claim to be the very individuals who inspired the Greek, Roman, Norse, and, other pantheons from Earth culture.
These beings say that all they want is our worship, and in return for it will provide us with a peaceful galaxy-wide paradise of perfect health and endless pleasure. When the Federation, in the person of Captain Calhoun and the crew...

An enemy so intractable that it cannot be reasoned with. The entire race thinks with one mind and strives toward one purpose: to add our biological distinctiveness to their own and wipe out individuality, to make every living thing Borg.

The Borg were stopped, the price paid in blood. Humanity breathed a sigh of relief, assuming it was safe. And with the destruction of the transwarp conduits, the Federation believed that the killing...

The New York Times bestselling series based on the blockbuster video game for Xbox

It is 2555, more than two years after the Master Chief went missing-in-action following a decisive conflict on Installation 00--the massive, extragalactic Forerunner construct known as the Ark--as part of the final chapter in humanity's bloody thirty-year struggle against the overwhelming forces of the Covenant. Now, as a tenuous peace exists between the humans and the Elites, a startling scientific discovery is made...and the riddle behind its Forerunner origins could very well seal the fate of the...

Everyone loves a hero...but sometimes we can't help but root for the villain...

Indulge both impulses with this nostalgic flipbook anthology--The Side of Good / The Side of Evil. After all, everyone is the hero of their own story and sometimes a change in perspective can make a world of difference.

Superheroes inspire us to be more than we can be, and on the flip side, Supervillains are reminders of the potential for darkness within us all. The Side of Good / The Side of Evil looks at the best and worst that Uber-mankind is capable of.
