Quantum Physics

This is the story of a quest: to find a Theory of Everything. Einstein dedicated his life to seeking this elusive Holy Grail, a single, revolutionary 'god equation' which would tie all the forces in the universe together, yet never found it. Some of the greatest minds in physics took up the search, from Stephen Hawking to Brian Greene. None have yet succeeded. In The God Equation, renowned theoretical physicist Michio Kaku takes the listener on a mind-bending ride through the twists and turns of this epic journey: a mystery that has fascinated him for most of his life.

Welcome to the Threads and Luxidoni Light Theory, a revolutionary new model of the universe — reimagined and restructured through the power of mechanics, not metaphysics. In this landmark volume, 387 questions and answers guide you through a bold new vision of reality — one built not on particles, fields, or imaginary dimensions but on threads and luxidoni: the physical, mechanical components that define energy, motion, and the fabric of space. This is not just a book — it is a complete structural framework that replaces wave-particle duality, redefines gravity as thread tension, and ...

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.

The nature of time has long been a subject of profound inquiry within both the realms of physics and philosophy. This research paper introduces the “D-Theory of Time,” a novel conceptual framework that seeks to advance our comprehension of temporal mechanics. Departing from traditional paradigms, the D-Theory posits that time is not merely a linear progression of events but a dynamic, multidimensional construct influenced by both physical and cognitive phenomena. By integrating insights from quantum mechanics, relativity, and cognitive science, this theory offers a more holistic ...

Drawing intriguing parallels between the present era of quantum physics and past episodes of scientific confusion, Beyond the Quantum tells the story of how pilot-wave theory was discovered and abandoned, revived and reconstructed, and how today it can pave the way to a new and radical physics beyond the quantum.

For hundreds of years, scientists of quantum physics have been telling things that looked unrealistic at the time they were living in. These scientists understood that everything is energy and discovered the most unbelievable laws that you are probably already familiar with.

Einstein's steadfast refusal to accept certain aspects of quantum theory was rooted in his insistence that physics has to be about reality. Accordingly, he once derided as spooky action at a distance the notion that two elementary particles far removed from each other could nonetheless influence each others propertiesa hypothetical phenomenon his fellow theorist Erwin Schrdinger termed quantum entanglement.

String Theory.Quantum Mechanics.Joey Ramone.Zoe Stanton’s life used to be normal. Which is to say normal, but by no means average. Then her mother died and with her passing came the era of the new normal; one that was anything but.And now her father was gone too.Zoe arrived home from school one afternoon to discover her father missing and his basement office in ruin. What’s more, there was a curious new addition to the Stanton family home. An old utility closet had mysteriously transformed into a portal to the infinite. Zoe was about to venture deep into the weird world of quantum theory.

Which reality are we to believe? Our minds and logic tell us that the world in which we live is real. It’s concrete. It’s particulate. We can see it, touch it, taste it, smell it, and hear it. Science, on the other hand, suggests something else. Our minds may be deceiving us. The world, when we are not observing it, is totally different. We have always believed, when we closed our eyes or slept, that the world maintained its basic shape and substance…that is, things would be essentially the same when we woke up as when we went to sleep. The Copenhagen Interpretation tells us, however,...

In this Very Short Introduction, John Heilbron draws on sources never before presented in English to cover the life and work of one of the most creative physicists of the 20th century. In addition to his role as a scientist, Heilbron considers Bohr as a statesman and Danish cultural icon, who built scientific institutions and pushed for the extension of international cooperation in science to all nation states. As a humanist he was concerned with the cultivation of all sides of the individual, and with the complementary contributions of all peoples to the sum of human culture.

What if everything you knew about time was wrong? From ancient myths and Einstein’s equations to multiverse theories and real-life legends, this book takes you on a fascinating journey through humanity’s oldest obsession: escaping time. Is time travel scientifically possible? Or is it just a beautiful illusion crafted by philosophers and dreamers? In this deeply engaging and accessible exploration, we examine paradoxes, quantum physics, spiritual insights, and cultural phenomena that suggest time might be more flexible than we’ve ever imagined. Whether you’re a skeptic, a believer, ...

Mind Openers 1.0 is the first of a two-part set. It chronicles how the astounding discoveries of modern physics have fundamentally changed our understanding of reality. Using a mix of historical narrative, intuitive analogies, and graphics, the book explores, explains, and ponders at meaning of our deepest theories. The author is a geophysicist and educator who specializes in translating scientific material for the non-expert.

He was described as one of the only persons smarter than Einstein, by no less than Eugene Wigner, a Nobel-Prize winning physicist, who knew both of them well. He was a polymath who spoke multiple languages and possessed an extraordinary intellect. He could perform complex mathematical calculations in his head, recite entire books verbatim after a single reading, and engage in advanced scientific discussions even as a child. He made groundbreaking contributions to mathematics, physics, economics, and computer science, notably developing the Monte Carlo method for nuclear reactor simulations ...

In The Several Adventures of Muon Mimi, the laws of physics meet the chaos of one young woman’s extraordinary life. Megumi “Mimi” Anderson—a self-described nerd with a nuclear engineering degree and a knack for sharp sarcasm—always suspected she was a little different. But nothing could prepare her for the revelation that her body is a living particle accelerator, emitting high-energy muons under circumstances no scientist can fully explain. When an incident at a remote Serbian reactor draws global—and clandestine—attention, Mimi is thrust into a whirlwind of intrigue that ...
