Science Cosmology

Quanto è grande l'universo? C'è stato un inizio e ci sarà una fine? Come si è fatta strada l'ipotesi del Big Bang? Come si fa a scoprire il passato dell'universo e a prevederne l'evoluzione futura? Domande antiche e in parte ancora irrisolte. Nel volume i passi più importanti del lungo cammino scientifico dall'età moderna fino alle scoperte più recenti, riguardanti la gerarchia di strutture cosmiche, l'espansione dell'universo, lo stato iniziale ultracaldo e ultradenso, che oggi i cosmologi possono osservare direttamente grazie a sofisticati telescopi e strumenti spaziali.

The "universe" refers to all "observable things", ranging in size from the entire cosmos to elementary particles. A guide for an enjoyable visit to the universe, this small tome on fundamental physics, cosmology, Higgs bosons, time travel, and all that is unlike any other analogous book. Its scientific statements are correct or, at least, they coincide with the opinions held by the vast majority of experts. It establishes clear distinctions between things we know for sure and things that we know that we do not know, or we do not understand.

「はじめに」より 本書で紹介する宇宙思考のポイントは、次の3つです。①宇宙において、見えるもの、そして知ることができることは、視点に依存しており、視点に限られています。

In the vast expanse of the cosmos, where stars twinkle in the night sky and galaxies swirl in the abyss, a remarkable dance of light and matter unfolds—a dance that has captivated the human imagination for centuries. This dance, illuminated by the science of spectroscopy, is what this book seeks to explore and explain. Spectroscopy, the study of the interaction between matter and electromagnetic radiation, may sound complex and esoteric, but at its heart lies a simple and profound idea: The colors of light can reveal the secrets of the universe.

Infinite Echoes: Navigating Parallel Universes and Cosmic Realities takes you on a mesmerizing journey into the mysteries of the multiverse & the nature of existence. This captivating exploration unravels the theoretical underpinnings of parallel universes, quantum mechanics, and cosmic realities, inviting you to question the very fabric of reality. Through engaging storytelling & thought-provoking insights, the book delves into concepts like the many-worlds interpretation, string theory, and the bubble multiverse, shedding light on the interconnected nature of all things.

كان كتاب ستيفن هوكنج "موجز تاريخ الزمن" الذي صدر في عام 1988م والذي حقق أفضل المبيعات، علامة مميزة في الكتابة العلمية. ويرجع السبب في ذلك إلى صوت المؤلف الواعد والموضوعات الملحة التي تناولها: طبيعة المكان والزمان. ودور الرب في الخلق، وتاريخ ومستقبل العالم. ومنذ أن نشر الكتاب دأب القراء مراراً على مخاطبة الأستاذ هوكنج وإخباره بالصعوبات التي يلقونها في فهم الموضوعات الأكثر أهمية في الكتاب.

O tempo não é um conceito abstrato. É uma substância material que ocupa todo o universo e se deforma, vibra, oscila. De Newton a Einstein, de Planck ao relógio cósmico, foi protagonista de metamorfoses vertiginosas, fascinantes e monstruosas. O tempo flui? Ou está parado? E como é medido? Como a gravidade o retarda? E como os buracos negros conseguem pará-lo? Sempre vivemos no tempo, que, no entanto, não é eterno.

重力は、宇宙を支配する力。「弱い」「消せる」など不思議な性質があり、まだその働きが解明されていない重力。最新の重力研究から宇宙の根本原理に迫る。

The Well-Planned Universe provides evidence-based insights into the nature of our world, ourselves, and the universe beyond. The book explains how recent developments in computer science along with evidence from physics, astronomy, chemistry, and biology reveal that there is more to the universe and ourselves than most people realize.

Black holes are the most extraordinary phenomenon in the universe, but they are a riddle that confounds our intuitions. Anything that enters them can never escape and yet they contain nothing at all. They are bigger on the inside than the outside suggests. They are dark on the outside but not on the inside. They invert time into space and space into time.

What does it mean to be human, to live on planet Earth, in the universe as it is now understood? Best-selling author and mathematical cosmologist Brain Swimme takes us on a journey through the cosmos in search of the “new story” that is developing in answer to this age-old question.

夜空を彩る満天の星や、皆既日食・彗星などの天体ショー。古来より人類は宇宙の美しさに魅せられてきた。しかし宇宙の美しさは、目に見えるところだけにあるのではない。これまで宇宙にまつわる現象は、

Este audiolibro analiza las probabilidades existentes de vida sin consciencia alguna y el desarrollo de civilizaciones a partir de seres racionales. Para que existan vidas similares a la humana más allá de la Tierra es necesario que estos dos saltos cualitativos que se produjeron en la Tierra tengan lugar también en otro lugar del Universo. Según los conocimientos científicos actuales, lo primero es relativamente probable, no así lo segundo, lo cual no significa que sea imposible.

Rope Hypothesis and Thread Theory is based on Bill Gaede's Rope Hypothesis. We apply the rope model to questions such as, what is gravity, light, electricity, and magnetism? What is thermodynamics? What is the difference between light and sound? What is plasma? How do batteries, antennas, and cathode ray tubes work? What is the difference between fundamental and composite objects? Does size scale make a difference when it comes to motion, friction, bending, stretching, and tension?

Forty-four science articles using the Rational Scientific Method of Inquiry. These subjects are covered in the book Curious Chain of Events, and this is the first in a series of Rational Science books.

You're no idiot, of course. You know Heisenburg's uncertainty principle has nothing to do with where you put your car keys. But modern cosmology is relatively complicated. The mystery of the universe definitely isn't one we can flip to the end to see whodunit. That hasn't stopped physicists, astronomers and philosophers from searching for clues! The topic is infinite (literally), but once you've listened to this audiobook you'll have a solid idea of our place in the universe and even where the cosmos itself might be headed.

Quanti anni ha la vita? Qual è il destino delle stelle? Se l'atomo è fatto di vuoto, che cosa sostiene il mondo? Perché solo i nostri neuroni, tra quelli di tutte le specie, sono in grado di descrivere i neutrini? Edoardo Boncinelli e Antonio Ereditato ci raccontano l'avventura dell'Universo: dall'esplosione iniziale al costituirsi dell'architettura delle galassie, dal principio dello spaziotempo all'evoluzione dei sapiens e al sorgere della coscienza umana. Tornano a istanti che vanno da 10-30 a 10-20 secondi dopo il Big Bang.

Em outubro de 2017, cientistas de um dos maiores observatórios espaciais do mundo — localizado no topo de um vulcão dormente no Havaí — detectaram um objeto transitando por nosso sistema solar. A primeira hipótese foi a de que se tratava de um mero asteroide, como tantos outros que cruzaram e seguem cruzando nossa galáxia. Mas os dados coletados pelo telescópio Pan-STARRS1 revelaram detalhes curiosos, e bem anômalos, no comportamento desse visitante.

Stargazing has shaped the entire course of human civilization. The rhythm of our ancestors' lives revolved around the stars, from cycles of agriculture to patterns of birth. How radically different would humanity be if our ancestors had looked up to the night sky and seen...nothing? In lyrical yet evidence-grounded meditations, Trotta imagines a world without stars, a dramatic alternate history in which we wouldn't understand gravity, where couldn't navigate or have much sense of time, and where our sense of the profound - of art and of the divine - was altered beyond recognition.

In Science(ish), Rick Edwards and Dr Michael Brooks confront all the questions that your favourite movies provoke.
