Quantum Physics

Once dismissed as a mathematical curiosity, black holes are so strange they almost defy belief. Since their existence was confirmed, research into the nature of black holes has opened up new vistas in physics. In this audiobook, we examine some of the most fascinating discoveries about black hole formation and behavior, the new and evolving research in gravitational wave astronomy, theoretical possibilities such as wormholes, and much more.

Quantenphysik – Die Lehre der kleinsten Teilchen. Was wäre, wenn die Gesetze der Natur anders funktionieren würden, als wir sie jemals verstanden haben? In der geheimnisvollen Welt der Quantenphysik ist genau das der Fall. Hier können Teilchen an zwei Orten gleichzeitig sein, und zwei miteinander verschränkte Teilchen bleiben auf mysteriöse Weise miteinander verbunden – egal, wie weit sie voneinander entfernt sind. Dieses Buch nimmt dich mit auf eine packende Reise in diese seltsame und faszinierende Welt.

Did you know that there’s so much empty space inside matter that the entire human race could be squeezed into the volume of a sugar cube? Or that you grow old more quickly on the top floor of a building than on the ground floor? The two towering achievements of modern physics are quantum theory and Einstein’s general theory of relativity. But, almost a century after their advent, most people haven’t the slightest clue what either is about. Get set for the most entertaining science book of the year.

Over 100 quotations from the top thinkers in physics, including: “Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I’m not sure about the former.”– Albert Einstein “Nature is one. It is not divided into physics, chemistry, quantum mechanics.”– Albert Szent-Gyorgyi “Not only is the Universe stranger than we think, it is stranger than we can think.”– Werner Heisenberg “The ‘paradox’ is only a conflict between reality and your feeling of what reality ‘ought to be.’ ”– Richard Feynman “If you start any large theory, such as quantum ...

The enigmas Professor Michael Dine discusses are like landmarks on a fantastic journey to the edge of the universe.

In 1948, a young German emigre reaches the threshold of a scientific vision: a theory of everything - the very blueprints for the construction of the universe. Then his dreams of a future in America collide with the horrors of his past, and both he and his research are seemingly lost forever. More than half a century later, an American scientist at the University of Michigan unveils a new source of energy. The invention - a quantum power cell - has the potential to radically reconfigure the economy by making traditional forms of energy production obsolete.

The Process of I is an examination of the power and connection of identity. Emily Maroutian explains that each person creates their own identity, knowingly or unknowingly, and then projects it into a reflective, personal reality that creates corresponding experiences and events. Every aspect of life is a reflection of your created identity. Every relationship is a mirror of your relationship with yourself. Understanding this cycle and depth of connection is one of the most powerful ways to recreate your relationships and world. Delve deep into the process of you as Emily Maroutian ...

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.

His face is instantly recognisable. His name is shorthand for genius. Today, he's a figurehead as much as a man, symbolic of things larger than himself: of scientific progress, of the human mind, even of the age. But who was Einstein really? The Nobel Prize-winning physicist who discovered relativity, black holes and E = mc2, dined with Charlie Chaplin in Hollywood and was the inspiration for element 99, Albert Einstein was also a high school dropout with an FBI file 1,400 pages long. In this audiobook, Samuel Graydon's writing brings history's most famous scientist back to life.

In "The Multiverse and the Fabric of Reality," physicist and philosopher Iman Nasser takes readers on a mind-bending journey through the concept of everything happening in every universe. From the theoretical background of the multiverse to the implications for philosophy, society, and life itself, Nasser offers a comprehensive exploration of this fascinating and thought-provoking idea. Beginning with an explanation of the concept and a brief history of its development, Nasser dives into the theoretical background of the multiverse, including the possibility of multiple universes according ...

The discovery of quantum mechanics has paved the way to just about every important innovation in the last half century: it has led us to the technology that powers microwaves, iPhones, and self-driving cars and is about to trigger a computing revolution that will either spell the end of the human species or propel us to heights we've never imagined. But there's another reason that quantum mechanics is so important: it is really the only way we can understand ourselves and each other.

In 1947, there’s an alien invasion looming and humankind’s best hope is a brilliant nineteen-year-old woman. NOW PART 4 of "From Roswell to Area 51", you don't need to buy both! When the A-bomb ended the war, with a power unlike anything humans had ever witnessed, Mary Goss was driven to gain the knowledge to prevent another war from ever beginning. Now the Army has come calling, looking for “a few good men” for a top-secret project. Instead, they find that the best and brightest is Mary. Much to Mary’s horror, the project reveals an alien invasion. Yet at every turn, her efforts ...

Recent scientific discoveries in quantum physics and relativity theory leave no doubt that nonlocality is a basic feature of physical reality. In addition, numerous phenomena such as ESP, out-of-body and near-death experiences, as well as mental states affecting physiological changes indicate that mind is nonlocal and cannot be equated with the brain. Nonlocality in the physical and mental realms negates the materialistic worldview but is entirely consistent with the spiritual worldview. The spiritual worldview is a top-down ontology—it begins and ends with Consciousness and considers ...

At the two four-kilometre long LIGO observatories in the US, scientists developed incredibly sensitive detectors, capable of spotting a movement 100 times smaller than the nucleus of an atom. In 2015, they spotted the ripples produced by two black holes spiralling into each other, setting spacetime quivering. This was the first time black holes had ever been directly detected, and it promises far more for the future of astronomy. Brian Clegg presents a compelling story of human technical endeavour and a powerful new path to understand the workings of the universe.
