Book Synopsis The Prime Number Conspiracy by : Thomas Lin
Download or read book The Prime Number Conspiracy written by Thomas Lin and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2018-11-20 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pulitzer Prize–winning magazine’s stories of mathematical explorations show that inspiration strikes haphazardly, revealing surprising solutions and exciting discoveries—with a foreword by James Gleick These stories from Quanta Magazine map the routes of mathematical exploration, showing readers how cutting-edge research is done, while illuminating the productive tension between conjecture and proof, theory and intuition. The stories show that, as James Gleick puts it in the foreword, “inspiration strikes willy-nilly.” One researcher thinks of quantum chaotic systems at a bus stop; another suddenly realizes a path to proving a theorem of number theory while in a friend's backyard; a statistician has a “bathroom sink epiphany” and discovers the key to solving the Gaussian correlation inequality. Readers of The Prime Number Conspiracy, says Quanta editor-in-chief Thomas Lin, are headed on “breathtaking intellectual journeys to the bleeding edge of discovery strapped to the narrative rocket of humanity's never-ending pursuit of knowledge.” Winner of the 2022 Pulitzer Prize for Explanatory Reporting, Quanta is the only popular publication that offers in-depth coverage of the latest breakthroughs in understanding our mathematical universe. It communicates mathematics by taking it seriously, wrestling with difficult concepts and clearly explaining them in a way that speaks to our innate curiosity about our world and ourselves. Readers of this volume will learn that prime numbers have decided preferences about the final digits of the primes that immediately follow them (the “conspiracy” of the title); consider whether math is the universal language of nature (allowing for “a unified theory of randomness”); discover surprising solutions (including a pentagon tiling proof that solves a century-old math problem); ponder the limits of computation; measure infinity; and explore the eternal question “Is mathematics good for you?” Contributors Ariel Bleicher, Robbert Dijkgraaf, Kevin Hartnett, Erica Klarreich, Thomas Lin, John Pavlus, Siobhan Roberts, Natalie Wolchover Copublished with Quanta Magazine

Book Synopsis Spiritual Quanta by : Jeffery B. Reese
Download or read book Spiritual Quanta written by Jeffery B. Reese and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-11-07 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE HUMAN SPIRIT HAS REAL USUABLE ENERGY. Jeffery takes us from the false ghostlike Spiritual images we grew up with, to the reality of the POWER available to us in our individual Spiritual Quanta (energy). His studies and discoveries in physics lead him to the realization that just because you can’t “see” this Spiritual power with your eyes, the results are unmistakable. Research in Quantum Mechanics has lead to the harnessing of the unseen energy in the sub-atomic world. These scientists aren’t able to see or measure these tiny particles, but they are able to know the results they bring about. These powerful results come from energy they can’t see or measure. We even use some of these findings in our everday life, like the microwave oven, satellites, computers, and many other ways. Without changing your own personal belief system, Jeffery will show how to discover the unseen power available to us in our Spiritual energy (quanta). These are basic Spiritual laws that if used, will direct us in finding our own personal path.

Book Synopsis The Propagation of Gamma Quanta in Matter by : O. I. Leipunskii
Download or read book The Propagation of Gamma Quanta in Matter written by O. I. Leipunskii and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2016-08-02 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Propagation of Gamma Quanta in Matter deals with various problems of the propagation and absorption of gamma quanta in matter, including the occurrence of multiple scattering of radiation. A general account of theoretical methods of solving problems of multiple scattering of quanta is presented, with emphasis on the results of solving such problems. This book consists of three chapters and begins with a discussion on the interaction of gamma radiation with matter; multiple scattering of gamma quanta; and the distribution function and quantities connected with it. The next chapter focuses on the theory of multiple scattering of gamma quanta and covers subjects such as the transport equation and its analytical solution; method of moments; method of random sampling; and method of successive collisions. The last chapter examines the propagation of radiation for various geometrical configurations of the sources and absorbing media, paying particular attention to a point source in a homogeneous medium and on the boundary of two media; unidirectional radiation in a homogeneous medium; reflexion of gamma radiation from the surface of a scattering medium; a plane isotropic source; and a thick radiating layer of an absorbing medium. This monograph will appeal to students as well as physicists and engineers engaged in shield design problems.

Book Synopsis Philosophy of Quanta by : Claus Birkholz
Download or read book Philosophy of Quanta written by Claus Birkholz and published by BookRix. This book was released on 2021-01-02 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For correcting Einstein‘s shortcuts (singularities, dark energy, dark matter), General Relativity (GR) urgently needs a quantisation uniting it with Higgs‘ data and Feynman‘s virtual states by some discrete dynamics (shell model) which, in addition, also will consistently predict resonance masses, coupling constants, and decay widths without breaking any symmetry. This is accomplished by a quantum gravity (QG) based on Dirac. Nature is considered as a static tensor made of discrete quanta subjected to a hyperbolical imbalance, embedded in a Matrioshka nesting providing dynamics and ToE-forces. With energy as the spin-like engine of time, motion just is varying observer positions in terms of a sequence of quantum leaps. Dark matter will split the matter left into valences (forces) and non-valences (dynamics) with the CPT-theorem generating horizons which create drastically transformed but equivalent dynamics beyond their causality barriers (event horizon, big bang). The cosmological constant yields Hubble‘s law, Feynman‘s propagators, and resonance widths. ToE reduces physics just to count numbers of quanta per quantum type. The mount-variant makes GR free of singularities and allows a complete geometrization of all ToE-forces according to Einstein’s GR. Kant’s “Prolegomena“ urgently needs an update. QG and ToE are axiomatic tensor models.

Book Synopsis Quanta and Mind by : J. Acacio de Barros
Download or read book Quanta and Mind written by J. Acacio de Barros and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-09-19 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume examines aspects of the mind/consciousness that are relevant to the interpretations of quantum mechanics. In it, an international group of contributors focus on the possible connections between quantum mechanics and consciousness. They look at how consciousness can help us with quantum mechanics as well as how quantum mechanics can contribute to our understanding of consciousness. For example, what do different interpretations aimed at solving the measurement problem in quantum mechanics tell us about the nature of consciousness, such as von Neumann's interpretation? Each interpretation has, associated to it, a corresponding metaphysical framework that helps us think about possible “models” of consciousness. Alternatively, what does the nature of consciousness tell us about the role of the observer and time reversibility in the measurement process? The book features 20 papers on contemporary approaches to quanta and mind. It brings together the work of scholars from different disciplines with diverse views on the connections between quanta and mind, ranging from those who are supportive of a link between consciousness and quantum physics to those who are very skeptical of such link. Coverage includes such topics as free will in a quantum world, contextuality and causality, mind and matter interaction, quantum panpsychism, the quantum and quantum-like brain, and the role of time in brain-mind dynamics.

Book Synopsis What Are Light Quanta? by : Åke Jean Hedberg
Download or read book What Are Light Quanta? written by Åke Jean Hedberg and published by BoD - Books on Demand. This book was released on 2024-08-13 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new quantum theory is presented here, against the shortcomings of the old, in a few pages. Actually, it is strange that no one has done this before, think the author. Everyone knows that new facts about our world, both in macro and micro cosmos, has rained on us the last few decades. This answer to Einstein's question about photon quanta is absolutely necessary to understand how the fusion processes on the sun work and how they should and can be applied here on Earth, technically speaking. The usual theory is completely wrong, as proven by all the failed constructions and attempts over more than many, many years. For example.
Book Synopsis Quips, Quotes, and Quanta by : Anton Z. Capri
Download or read book Quips, Quotes, and Quanta written by Anton Z. Capri and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2011 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a ship's surgeon during a routine episode of bloodletting noticed that the sailors' blood was brighter in the tropics than in the north, he hypothesized that heat was a form of energy. When a young boy tried to visualize how a beam of light would look like by riding alongside it at the same speed, he began thinking along lines that eventually changed our views of space and time. When a student caught hay fever and went to recover on Heligoland, he started a major revolution in physics. These are but just some of the stories covered in this entertaining book that deals with the history of physics from the end of the 19th-century to about 1930. Quips, Quotes and Quanta (2nd Edition) is unique in that it contains anecdotes on physicists creating new ideas. Often the thinking of the creators of what is now called "modern physics" is revealed through quotes. Thematic and biographical in nature, this book also includes many personal incidents. This second edition has been revised to include new material: a prologue, epilogue, glossary and chronology, and photograph's as well as additional quotes and anecdotes.
Book Synopsis Quanta, Galactic Walls, The Cycle of Time, Accross the Event Horizon by : Claus Birkholz
Download or read book Quanta, Galactic Walls, The Cycle of Time, Accross the Event Horizon written by Claus Birkholz and published by BookRix. This book was released on 2021-09-11 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum gravity (QG) reduces the infinite number of classical transformations to the finite number of their generators. As a Dirac algebra, they form the basis of a U(2,2) of 4x4=16 pairs of 4 discrete types of quanta. Einstein's General Theory of Relativity (GR) is a defective application of its conformal subgroup SO(2,4). The experiment identifies its CPT extension to a U(4,4) of a complex Lie algebra as a correct description of our universe in the large and the dynamics of quantised particles in the small. Black holes are free of singularities, swallow energy-momentum, and return spacetime. Pseudo-unitarity is the engine of time. Forces prove the "Theory of Everything" (ToE) to be an 8-fold degeneracy of QG, which, like GR, is fully geometrizable. It describes the world of elementary particles with their non-valence structures and flavours, dark energy, dark matter, and the filaments and voids of Galactic Walls. Weak interactions do not break any conservation law. Due to 8x8=2**6, the ToE provides exactly 6 Goldstone particles with spins 2, 1, and 1/2: graviton, photon, 3 left-handed neutrinos, a sterile meson. The graviton separates input from output; as a simulation effect of Young tableaux, antimatter is largely suppressed. QG and ToE attribute all physics solely to the occupation numbers of the ToE quantum types and to our current position in our universe. This way, ToE allows to derive the numerical particle spectrum including masses by theory. According to Bell's superdeterminism, our universe is invariant; there is no free will. Dynamics compares fixed observer positions and identifies local variation as "motion".
Book Synopsis Particles, Fields, Quanta by : Gerhard Ecker
Download or read book Particles, Fields, Quanta written by Gerhard Ecker and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-04-05 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an introduction to the current state of our knowledge about the structure of matter. Gerhard Ecker describes the development of modern physics from the beginning of the quantum age to the standard model of particle physics, the fundamental theory of interactions of the microcosm. The focus lies on the most important discoveries and developments, e.g. of quantum field theory, gauge theories and the future of particle physics. The author also emphasizes the interplay between theory and experiment, which helps us to explore the deepest mysteries of nature. "Particles, Fields, Quanta" is written for everyone who enjoys physics. It offers high school graduates and students of physics in the first semesters an encouragement to understand physics more deeply. Teachers and others interested in physics will find useful insights into the world of particle physics. For advanced students, the book can serve as a comprehensive preparation for lectures on particle physics and quantum field theory. A brief outline of the mathematical structures, an index of persons with research focuses and a glossary for quick reference of important terms such as gauge theory, spin and symmetry complete the book. From the foreword by Michael Springer: “The great successes and the many open questions this book describes illustrate how immensely complicated nature is and nevertheless how much we already understand of it.” The author Gerhard Ecker studied theoretical physics with Walter Thirring at the University of Vienna. His research focus has been on theoretical particle physics, in particular during several long-term visits at CERN, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research in Geneva. In 1986 he was promoted to Professor of Theoretical Physics at the University of Vienna. Since 1977 he has given both basic lectures in theoretical physics and advanced courses on different topics in particle physics, e.g., quantum field theory, symmetry groups in particle physics and renormalisation in quantum field theory.
