Quantum Physics

Vier Forscher und ein unablässiges Hin und Her der Ideen – vor hundert Jahren entstand eine neue Wissenschaft, die die Grenzen der Vorstellungskraft sprengte: die Quantenphysik. Ihre Protagonisten: Max Planck, Albert Einstein, Niels Bohr und Werner Heisenberg. Sie ergründeten das Innere der Atome und rangen mit einer scheinbar einfachen Frage: Was ist Licht? – zu einer Zeit, in der Elektrizität erstmals die Städte erhellte und Kino und Fotografie ihren Siegeszug antraten. Thomas de Padova lässt die fieberhafte Suche nach Antworten anhand der Begegnungen der Forscher lebendig werden.

In recent years, several respected Christian authors and teachers have come against beliefs and practices of charismatics, the world's fastest growing Christian group.

Taking an honest look at the merits and mishaps of the charismatic renewal, DeArteaga answers your questions-whether you...

How does Einstein’s description of space and time compare with Doctor Who? Can James Bond really escape from an armor-plated railroad car by cutting through the floor with a laser concealed in a wristwatch? What would it take to create a fully intelligent android, such as Star Trek’s Commander Data? Exploring Science Through Science Fiction addresses these and other intriguing questions, using science fiction as a springboard for discussing fundamental science concepts and cutting-edge science research.

On the journey to expand our consciousness in alignment with the energy of our heart, we can find many paths to Self-realization. All require recognizing our attachments to the limitations of our compartmentalized ego-consciousness, resolving our self-imposed limiting beliefs about ourselves, and opening to the unlimited guidance of our intuition. Our understanding here is from our awareness in watching our ego-consciousness. Understanding the qualities of our experience from the perspective of quantum energetics brings an ability to align our own vibratory level with the expression of our ...

In knowing and understanding the structure of our experiences, we can master our lives in all dimensions of quantum energy patterns. What is real is consciousness. It is all-pervasive throughout the cosmos and perhaps beyond. Universal consciousness expresses itself as the unified quantum field of all potentialities. This is a plasma electromagnetic expanse of wave patterns, radiant with photons and life force. The seers and mystics perceive that there is a quality of unconditional love that is inherent in universal consciousness. This has not yet been recognized by quantum physicists, but ...

Today, across the universe, at the heart of every galaxy, and dotted throughout, mature black holes are creating chaos. And in a quiet part of the universe, the Swift satellite has picked up evidence of a gruesome death caused by one of these dark powers. High-energy X-ray flares shooting out from deep within the Draco constellation are thought to be the dying cries of a white dwarf star being ripped apart by the intense tides of a supermassive black hole—heating it to millions of degrees as it is shredded at the event horizon.

Galileo Unbound traces the journey that brought us from Galileo's law of free fall to today's geneticists measuring evolutionary drift, entangled quantum particles moving among many worlds, and our lives as trajectories traversing a health space with thousands of dimensions. Remarkably, common themes persist that predict the evolution of species as readily as the orbits of planets or the collapse of stars into black holes.

The colonization of Mars began with vision and the power of science and money, but it didn't take long for greed to rear its ugly head. As the wonder of Mars turned ugly, the United Nations formed the Joint Academic Research and Development Organization (JARDO) and choose the world-renowned scientist Marvin Dryer to head it up. Dryer uses his influence at Harvard and MIT to assemble a team of the brightest young minds in science. Individually, they are all superstars, but together with a sentient AI cognate known as SAMI, they become a mighty force that wields unimaginable powers.~~~ “...

You make hundreds of decisions every day, from what to eat for breakfast to how to influence people, and not one of them could be made without the essential component of emotion. It has long been held that thinking and feeling are separate and opposing forces in our behaviour. But as best-selling author Leonard Mlodinow tells us, extraordinary advances in psychology and neuroscience have proven that emotions are as critical to our well-being as thinking.

Mystics and sages have long maintained that everything in the universe is connected and have identified consciousness as the unifying ground substance of creation. Recent discoveries in quantum physics are consistent with this worldview leading several of the “founding fathers” of quantum mechanics to embrace the concept of oneness—the Unity Principle. Modern scientific observations from the behavioral studies indicate that mind cannot be equated with brain. Hence, a new model of reality is needed that integrates modern scientific observations with the metaphysics of unity. This new ...
