Quantum Physics

Navigating poverty, violence, and instability, a young James Plummer had two guiding stars - a genius IQ and a love of science. But a bookish nerd is a soft target, and James faced years of bullying and abuse. As he struggled to survive his childhood in some of the country’s toughest urban neighborhoods in New Orleans, Houston, and LA, and later in the equally poor backwoods of Mississippi, he adopted the persona of “gangsta nerd” - dealing weed in juke joints while winning state science fairs with computer programs that model Einstein’s theory of relativity.

Particle physics was always an unlikely path to the stars, but with the discovery that space could be compressed, the entire galaxy had come within reach. The technology was astonishing, yet nothing compared to what humans encountered 4,000 light-years from home. Now, with an invitation from a mysterious gatekeeper, the people of Earth must decide if they're ready to participate in the galactic conversation.

There was a time when “universe” meant all there is. Everything. Yet, in recent years discoveries in physics and cosmology have led a number of scientists to conclude that our universe may be one among many. With crystal-clear prose and inspired use of analogy, Brian Greene shows how a range of different “multiverse” proposals emerges from theories developed to explain the most refined observations of both subatomic particles and the dark depths of space.

Life isn’t so terrible for newly-coined physicist Mira Verborgen when she’s chosen for a cushy internship at CERN, located at the France-Switzerland border. After all, she gets to work side by side with dreamy physicist, Giancarlo Colombo, and be on the cutting edge of the latest particle accelerator experiments... That is, until she inadvertently becomes part of Dr. Orlov’s bonkers plan for world domination. Instead of exploring her budding relationship with Giancarlo, their relationship is cut short—along with their material existence. Indeed, the pair develop a startling and ...

In 1939, Richard Feynman, a brilliant graduate of MIT, arrived in John Wheeler's Princeton office to report for duty as his teaching assistant. A lifelong friendship and enormously productive collaboration was born, despite sharp differences in personality. The soft-spoken Wheeler, though conservative in appearance, was a raging nonconformist full of wild ideas about the universe. The boisterous Feynman was a cautious physicist who believed only what could be tested. Yet they were complementary spirits.

Upon reading Dejan Stojanović’s philosophical book Absolute, two imposing assertions resonate the most: “Reality is an illusion” and “God is the Universal mind of the Absolute.” In his outstanding book, Stojanović offers a masterful examination of these ideas and concepts from different perspectives. Stojanović’s book, in its scope and complexity, is the pinnacle of achievement in the field of philosophy; it is an overview of historical and philosophical standpoints dating back from ancient philosophers such as Plato and Aristotle to the modern metaphysical thoughts and ...

Quantum Psychology holistically approaches challenges and basic conceptions about the way reality reveals itself that we take for granted, re-thinking them from a new prism. It questions the very same foundations of our existence and what "being" truly encompasses. This is a journey to interpret our reality and your role in its unfolding as never imagined before. You might love it or disagree with it, but you will not be left indifferent.

Science fiction has imagined some pretty wild ideas about how the universe could work - from hidden extra dimensions in Interstellar to life as a mental projection in The Matrix. But these imaginings seem downright tame compared to the mind-bending science now coming out of physics and astronomy, and in this audiobook, we look at the strange and fascinating discoveries shaping (and reshaping) the field today.

Despite the efforts of many to discover its origin, the Shroud of Turin remains a mystery. It is the most studied artifact in the history of scientific inquiry, and after 150 thousand hours of international scientific investigation by researchers of varying disciplines, the silence is deafening. There is no credible conclusion! For anyone with "eyes to see and ears to hear" the Shroud of Turin is the inexplicable and unreproducible imprint of Jesus Christ's miraculous death and Resurrection. Unexplained by science, it speaks of a supernatural reality and an otherworldly dimension.

“Is life worth living?” Mansel, a programmer, asks that question in frustration after he learns Amanda, his wife, is leaving him. Cece, the AI global control supercomputer, hears him and begins calculations. He tries to stop her, but he is too late – the countdown has begun. What will Cece decide? Nobody wants to wait around and find out, because the fate of all humanity hangs in the balance. It's 2121 and the world has become overly dependent on Cece, who makes all routine decisions. Not only does she answer questions, she gives follow-up advice. Or is it orders? The line has grown ...

Vianna Stibal was diagnosed with a serious health condition. When conventional and alternative medicine failed her, she discovered a simple technique that cured her illness and sparked a worldwide phenomenon. ThetaHealing® is essentially applied quantum physics. Using a theta brain wave, which until now was believed to be accessible only in deep sleep or yogi-level meditation, the practitioner is able to connect with the energy of All That Is - the energy in everything - to identify issues with and witness healings on the physical body, and to identify and change limiting beliefs.

The second half of the 20th century witnessed a scientific gold rush as physicists raced to chart the inner workings of the atom. The stakes were high, the questions were big, and there were Nobel Prizes and everlasting glory to be won. Many mysteries of the atom came unraveled, but one remained intractable-what Frank Close calls the "Infinity Puzzle."

The Threads and Luxidoni Universe: A New Theory of Cosmic Growth and Structure Revolutionizing Cosmology with a Universe That Grows, Not Expands—Now with Mathematical Formulas and Comparison Charts For decades, scientists have debated the origins and structure of the universe. The Big Bang Theory, while widely accepted, depends on untested assumptions like singularities, inflation, dark matter, and dark energy. But what if there were a more precise, testable explanation grounded in physical principles rather than speculation? In The Threads and Luxidoni Universe, a groundbreaking ...

God’s creation is so intimately intertwined that we cannot separate the visible from the invisible. The unseen—thoughts, emotions, and matters of the Spirit—has dramatic impact on the seen—the stuff we deal with every day. Prayer, Quantum Physics, and Hotel Mattresses strives to integrate the visible and invisible aspects of life: prayer, representing the spiritual and relational side of life; quantum physics, representing the fundamental and scientific aspects of ultimate reality and the physical world in which we live; and hotel mattresses, representing the everyday stuff and ...

“The distinction between the past, present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.” - Albert Einstein Outlaw quantum physicist Johnny Twain believes he can see a stark future - a post-war world where humans are extinct. He must fight his own war - against his government, against his conscious, and against reality... Brian Nyx savored the moment, sitting down next to his patient – prisoner! – a pestering voice somewhere in his mind chirped. He settled into the light brown, soft leather chair with uninterrupted time to actually relax, read, and begin to learn the many ...

Mark Maxwell Series #1117 By Garry Higgins In 2087, Earth's atmosphere has collapsed and humanity's survivors cling to existence inside Sanctuary, the last functioning biodome. When former NASA quantum physicist Mark Maxwell is conscripted to investigate mysterious energy fluctuations threatening the facility, he uncovers a secret that defies comprehension—a quantum gateway capable of manipulating time itself. As Sanctuary's life support systems rapidly fail, Mark discovers a horrifying truth: this isn't humanity's first apocalypse, but the sixth iteration of a time loop created by Dr. ...

Today we are blessed with two extraordinarily successful theories of physics. The first is Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity, which describes the large-scale behavior of matter in a curved spacetime. The second is quantum mechanics. This theory describes the properties and behavior of matter and radiation at their smallest scales.

A daring new vision of quantum theory from one of the leading minds of contemporary physics. In Einstein's Unfinished Revolution, theoretical physicist Lee Smolin provocatively argues that the problems that have bedeviled quantum physics since its inception are unsolved and unsolvable, for the simple reason that the theory is incomplete.
