The Edge of the Sky: All You Need to Know About the All-There-Is
ISBN: 9780465044719 / Angielski / Twarda / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. From the big bang to black holes, from dark matter to dark energy, from the origins of the universe to its ultimate destiny, The Edge of the Sky tells the story of the most important discoveries and mysteries in modern cosmology--with a twist. The book's lexicon is limited to the thousand most common words in the English language, excluding physics, energy, galaxy, or even universe. Through the eyes of a fictional scientist (Student-People) hunting for dark matter with one of the biggest telescopes (Big-Seers) on Earth (Home-World), cosmologist Roberto...

Intelligent Universe
ISBN: 9781494905910 / Angielski / Miękka / 72 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Ancient records suggest that universes, galaxies, stars, and planets are alive and sentient and capable of communicating with their Creator, as are the peoples who inhabit them. What does our universe look like? What does it have in common with human physiology? How are we connected to it? What natural infrastructures are designed into it? What did the inhabitants of Babel intend to accomplish when they started building a pyramid? What of our Heavenly progenitors? Is there an eternal pattern of creation, opposition, and redemption common to the Fathers of our God? Are human beings mere...

The Dark Matter Problem: A Historical Perspective
ISBN: 9781107677180 / Angielski / Miękka / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Most astronomers and physicists now believe that the matter content of the Universe is dominated by dark matter: hypothetical particles which interact with normal matter primarily through the force of gravity. Though invisible to current direct detection methods, dark matter can explain a variety of astronomical observations. This book describes how this theory has developed over the past 75 years, and why it is now a central feature of extragalactic astronomy and cosmology. Current attempts to directly detect dark matter locally are discussed, together with the implications for particle...

ISBN: 9781453605295 / Angielski / Miękka / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Finally, a Theory of Everything that fits all the constraints, such as energy conservation *the Big Bang doesn't}, no infinite regresses (cause and effect forever), causeless amounts and nature of substance(s) (nothing prior to account for it), limited in duration or size (then the All would not be the All), symmetry violation, complexity at lower levels (the trend is ever simpler), etc. Illustrated. So simple that one's grandmother could understand it.

'Everything' explained, its source, its Why and How, and then the Where, What, Then and When, leading on up to the Who of being, plus many discussions, epic thoughts illustrated, brain waves illustrated, and more. Intro: The TOE must not only encompass the unification of the forces, which is the GUT (the Grand Unification theory), but it must also demonstrate why anything exists at all, and how it does so, and, furthermore, how that ties in to what we have become up to now, such as how we operate, and so forth. "Why does anything exist at all?" is much akin to the 'great' philosophical...

Timaeus

Plato 428/427 BC a] - 348/347 BC), was a Classical Greek philosopher, mathematician, student of Socrates, writer of philosophical dialogues, and founder of the Academy in Athens, the first institution of higher learning in the Western world. Along with his mentor, Socrates, and his student, Aristotle, Plato helped to lay the foundations of Western philosophy and science. In the famous words of A.N. Whitehead: The safest general characterization of the European philosophical tradition is that it consists of a series of footnotes to Plato. I do not mean the systematic scheme of thought which...

The Final Mystery: Discovering The Unimaginable
ISBN: 9781490960357 / Angielski / Miękka / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Is an understanding of why we exist an impossible dream? Using the greatest minds in science past and present, including the collected works of many famous Nobel Prize winners, the author argues that an unspoken revolution is taking place within science. It involves the growing realisation that at the deepest level our world may be constructed from nothing more than mathematical patterns. We are taken on a rapid journey from the beginning of time to the present in a language that is informal and conversational. Without using equations we are introduced to the biggest mysteries in science,...

A land where we are willing to leave behind the old, to bravely accept the new. What do we need to exit the dark ages in the morphology of galaxies? How prevalent is the cherishing of old concepts? Traditional morphology has been mask-oriented', focusing on masks of dust and gas which may constitute only 5 percent of the dynamical mass of a galaxy.
Some of the world's foremost astronomers flew to South Africa to address morphologically related issues at an International Conference, the proceedings of which are contained in this volume.

The Weight of the Vacuum: A Scientific History of Dark Energy
ISBN: 9783642550898 / Angielski / Miękka / 113 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The 2011 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded for the discovery of cosmic acceleration due to dark energy, a discovery that is all the more perplexing as nobody knows what dark energy actually is. We put the modern concept of cosmological vacuum energy into historical context and show how it grew out of disparate roots in quantum mechanics (zero-point energy) and relativity theory (the cosmological constant, Einstein's "greatest blunder"). These two influences have remained strangely aloof and still co-exist in an uneasy alliance that is at the heart of the greatest crisis in theoretical...

Cp Violation
ISBN: 9780198716754 / Angielski / Miękka / 544 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. CP violation is an intriguing and elusive subject, and current knowledge of it remains limited, on both the experimental and theoretical levels. Researchers lack a fundamental understanding of its origin, and this is all the more important because CP violation is related to the generation problem and mass problem, two of the basic open questions in particle physics. This book provides beginning researchers with a self-contained introduction to the subject, starting at an elementary level and taking the reader to the forefront of current research.
