Quantum Physics

“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 ...

In this book Agustin Galan explores the philosophy of elementary particles (the ultimate reality) through works of popular science published in recent years. Designed to help readers understand the latest discoveries and theories of modern astrophysics, the book achieves this goal by showing their phylosophycal consecuences. This is one of the most interesting ways to paint a complete picture of our modern world while exploring the concepts used by scientists. Written by a journalist with a deep interest in philosopy, Agustin Galan has produced a crystal clear synthesis of sophisticated ...

When Matthieu Ricard and Trinh Thuan met at an academic conference in the summer of 1997, they began discussing the many remarkable connections between the teachings of Buddhism and the findings of recent science. That conversation grew into an astonishing correspondence exploring a series of fascinating questions. Did the universe have a beginning? Might our perception of time in fact be an illusion, a phenomenon created in our brains that has no ultimate reality? What is consciousness and how did it evolve?

First proposed more than 200 years ago, Schopenhauer's extraordinarily prescient metaphysics - if understood along the lines thoroughly elucidated and substantiated in this volume - offer powerful answers not only to the paradoxes of quantum mechanics, but also to modern philosophical dilemmas such as the hard problem of consciousness - which plagues mainstream physicalism - and the subject combination problem - which plagues constitutive panpsychism

The author of the New York Times best seller You Are the Placebo, as well as Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself and Evolve Your Brain, draws on research conducted at his advanced workshops since 2012 to explore how common people are doing the uncommon to transform themselves and their lives. Becoming Supernatural marries the some of the most profound scientific information with ancient wisdom to show how people like you and me can experience a more mystical life.

In The Quantum World, leading physicists and New Scientist take you on a journey through quantum theory, its mind-bending properties and the technologies transforming our world. Forget everything you thought you knew about reality. The world is a seriously bizarre place. Things can exist in two places at once and travel backwards and forwards in time. Waves and particles are one and the same, and objects change their behaviour according to whether they are being watched.

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.

This book explains Particle Accelerators, or atom smashers, in very simple words to the layperson. There is NO mathematics, and no difficult to understand jargon. Just a simple introduction to the basic principles plus the history of evolution. You will simply LOVE this book, written by a specialist in high energy particle physics.

Why does your weather app say “there’s a 10 percent chance of rain” instead of “it will be sunny”? In large part, this is due to the insight of award-winning physicist Tim Palmer, who pioneered the introduction of uncertainty into weather and climate prediction. Now, he wants to apply it to how we study everything else.

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.

The discovery of the quantum - the idea, born in the early 1900s in a remote corner of physics, that energy comes in finite packets instead of infinitely divisible quantities - planted a rich set of metaphors in the popular imagination. Quantum imagery and language now bombard us like an endless stream of photons. Phrases such as multiverse, quantum leap, alternate universe, the uncertainty principle, and Schrödinger's cat get reinvented continually in cartoons and movies, coffee mugs and T-shirts, and fiction and philosophy.

Physicists have been exploring, debating, and questioning the general theory of relativity ever since Albert Einstein first presented itin 1915. Their work has uncovered a number of the universe's more surprising secrets, and many believe further wonders remain hidden within the theory's tangle of equations, waiting to be exposed. In this sweeping narrative of science and culture, astrophysicist Pedro Ferreira brings general relativity to life through the story of the brilliant physicists, mathematicians, and astronomers who have taken up its challenge.

Embark on a mind-expanding journey through the nature of reality itself! Is our universe one of many? Are we living in a simulation? What does quantum physics tell us about the fabric of reality? "The Beginner's Guide to Reality" breaks down these profound questions into three fascinating, accessible books that will forever change how you view existence.

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.
