Engineering Physics

Das Wissen über das, was die Welt im Innersten zusammenhält, ist nicht nur das Ergebnis herausragender Forschung brillanter Geister, sondern auch eine Konsequenz wahnwitziger Zufälle und absurder Ideen. Genau dieser höchst unterhaltsamen und verrückten Seite der Wissenschaft und ihrer Geschichten widmet sich der junge Science-Star und Wissenschaftsjournalist Niklas Kolorz. Er begleitet Pythagoras, Marie Curie und Albert Einstein, während sie quasi zufällig ihre bahnbrechenden Entdeckungen machen.

量子力学を創始し，原子物理学の基礎を築いた人が追究した生命の本質とは？　本書は分子生物学の生みの親となった20世紀の名著である．生物現象ことに遺伝のしくみと染色体行動における物質の構造と

Allgemeinwissen: Mit spannenden, unterhaltsamen und breit gefächerten Fakten Wissen erweitern und in jedem Gespräch glänzen. Wozu Wissen, wenn ich doch jederzeit googeln kann? Dieser Gedanke ist verlockend, aber: Nur wer Dinge selbst weiß, kann sich ein kluges, zusammenhängendes Bild von der Welt machen – und ganz nebenbei in jedem Party-Talk punkten.

The universe should be fun, and you’re about to discover an audiobook that understands that, weaving humor and wit into every minute so that you not only understand what you’re listening to, but enjoy the whole process.

Physics for Rock Stars is not a weighty treatise on science, but a personal tour of physics from a quirky friend. Anyone who's ever wondered why nature abhors a vacuum, what causes magnetic attraction, or how to jump off a moving train or do a perfect stage dive will find answers and a few laughs, too. No equations, numbers, or tricky concepts - just an inspiring and comical romp through the basics of physics and the beauty of the organized universe.

In Handprints on Hubble, retired astronaut Kathryn Sullivan describes her work on the NASA team that made all of this possible. Sullivan, the first American woman to walk in space, recounts how she and other astronauts, engineers, and scientists launched, rescued, repaired, and maintained Hubble, the most productive observatory ever built.

A menudo conocemos las teorías que los grandes físicos de la historia han desarrollado, pero ignoramos aspectos biográficos que les han influido, como sus pensamientos teístas o ateos. A veces sus creencias han tenido un efecto en su ciencia y en otras ha sido la ciencia la cual ha influido en sus creencias. ¿Qué ideas religiosas tenían Aristóteles, Copérnico, Galileo, Einstein o Dirac? ¿Cómo influyó el contexto? Eduardo Battaner nos lo cuenta en este audiolibro desde una perspectiva objetiva e histórica.

The author, Chris McMullen, PhD, has over 20 years of experience teaching math skills to physics students. He prepared this workbook of the Improve Your Math Fluency series to share his passion for word problems. This book includes 200 word problems with answers.

Aprenderemos para qué sirve un acelerador de partículas, qué es la partícula de Dios, cómo las cosas pueden estar en dos sitios a la vez...y trataremos de comprender los misterios de la existencia.

Il vetro attraverso cui passa la luce che ci sveglia al mattino, la fetta di pane tostato con cui facciamo colazione, i jeans che indossiamo per uscire di casa, le ruote della bici che sostengono il nostro peso mentre torniamo dal lavoro, il palazzo tra le cui mura ci addormentiamo la sera: ogni singolo oggetto del nostro quotidiano funziona e opera grazie alle leggi della fisica, della chimica e della biologia, in modi che di solito ignoriamo completamente.

In Apollo's Legacy, space historian Roger D. Launius explores the many-faceted stories told about the meaning of the Apollo program and how it forever altered American society. The Apollo missions marked the first time human beings left Earth's orbit and visited another world, and thus they loom large in our collective memory. Many have detailed the exciting events of the Apollo program, but Launius offers unique insight into its legacy as seen through multiple perspectives.

Was ist Physik und was ist Pseudowissenschaft? - Holm Hümmler erläutert die wichtigsten Konzepte und zeigt auf, wo Wissenschaft nur falsch verstanden und wo sie in Scheinargumenten missbraucht wird. Das Hörbuch wird von Alexa Waschkau, Journalistin und Mitgründerin des Podcasts "Hoaxilla" gesprochen. Können esoterische und alternativmedizinische Konzepte mit der Relativitätstheorie und Quantenphysik begründet werden? Wer sich auf Einstein, Heisenberg oder Schrödinger beruft, beansprucht wissenschaftliche Seriosität und schreckt unangenehme Fragen ab.

Algorithm Universe Model answers the questions that are not answered by the standard model. It is a specific math model, not just a theory. Among the answers it gives are the common features of all forces and their relationship to dimension, an explanation of the big bang, wave particle duality as an effect of particle pre-time change, black holes, gravity and dark energy, the correct definition of time and why it must be distinguished from change, among many others. This is an audiobook of Algorithm Universe Model, Audio Summary.

As a follow-up to the seminal work, The Overview Effect, Frank White explores life's destiny in the universe and a compelling new hypothesis.

How did we get here? All cultures have a creation story, but a little over 150 years ago, Charles Darwin introduced a revolutionary new one. We, and all living things, exist because of the action of evolution on the first simple life form and its descendants. In How Evolution Explains Everything About Life, leading biologists and New Scientist take you on a journey of a lifetime, exploring the questions of whether life is inevitable or a one-off fluke and how it got kick-started.

This lively and informative exploration of the heart offers a perfect mix of medical fact and amusing anecdote. A prospective cardiologist and former paramedic - as well as one of Germany's most successful science-slammers - von Borstel relates his own experiences to provide a personal insight into the human side of heart medicine while clearly explaining the science behind cardiac disease and healthcare for the heart.

An accessible look at the hottest topic in physics and the experiments that will transform our understanding of the universe. The biggest news in science today is the Large Hadron Collider, the world's largest and most powerful particle-smasher, and the anticipation of finally discovering the Higgs boson particle. But what is the Higgs boson and why is it often referred to as the God Particle? Why are the Higgs and the LHC so important?

Our most recent scientific theory states that 99 percent of the multiverse is invisible to us. In fact, every current physics textbook makes this claim. Therefore, if only 1 percent of the multiverse is visible to us, the question becomes: When you view yourself in a mirror, are you truly seeing 100 percent of yourself...or just 1 percent? Best-selling author Ishan Rami is joined by Dan Howe to answer this question and more in their new audiobook: Your Invisible Body and the Quantum Universe.

Discovering the nature of the Scientific Worldview is no easy task. It cannot be found by summing all scientific specialties, or by polling scientists and averaging the results. The Scientific Worldview, above all, must state its beginning assumptions clearly and from there attempt a coherent unification of the salient facts and a rigorous application of determinism to the world as a whole. It would not be in agreement with every interpretation advanced by every specialist.

Robyn Williams reflects on why science matters, after 40 years of ABC RN's The Science Show. The Science Show with Robyn Williams on Radio National is one of the longest running programs on Australian radio. Scientific issues, debates, events, personalities, exposing scientific fraud, discoveries and broadcasting pranks have been its hallmarks, and the show has given Australians fascinating insights into all manner of things.
