Fundamentals of statistical mechanics : manuscript and notes of Felix Bloch / Felix Bloch, John Dirk Walecka
Đầu mục:5
Tài liệu số:0The 1952 Nobel physics laureate Felix Bloch (1905-83) was one of the titans of twentieth-century physics. He laid the fundamentals for the theory of solids and has been called the "father of solid-state physics." His numerous, valuable contributions include the theory of magnetism, measurement of the magnetic moment of the neutron, nuclear magnetic resonance, and the infrared problem in quantum electrodynamics. Statistical mechanics is a crucial subject which explores the understanding of the physical behaviour of many-body systems that create the world around us. Bloch's first-year graduate course at Stanford University was the highlight for several generations of students. Upon his retirement, he worked on a book based on the course. Unfortunately, at the time of his death, the writing was incomplete.
Bios : a study of creation / Hector C. Sabelli, Louis H. Kauffman
Đầu mục:5
Tài liệu số:0This book focuses on a prototype of creative causal processes termed BIOS and how the concept can be applied to the physical world, in medicine and in social science. This book presents methods for identifying creative features in empirical data; studies showing biotic patterns in physical, biological, and economic processes; mathematical models of bipolar (positive and negative) feedback that generate biotic patterns. These studies support the hypothesis that natural processes are creative (not determined) and causal (not random) and that bipolar feedback plays a major role in their evolution.
Space Science / Keith O. Mason, Louise K. Harra
Đầu mục:5
Tài liệu số:0An introduction to space science that brings together various space science disciplines in one volume. Aimed in particular at students starting their graduate studies, the text presents an outlook that encourages students to think in broad terms across the whole range of space science.
Wandering stars : about planets and exo-planets : an introductory notebook / George. H. A. Cole
Đầu mục:10
Tài liệu số:0The space vehicle spectaculars of recent years have been revealing the full scope and beauty of our own solar system but have also shown that a growing number of other stars too have planetary bodies orbiting around them. The study of these systems is just beginning. It seems that our galaxy contains untold numbers of planets, and presumably other galaxies will be similar to our own. Our solar system contains life, on Earth: do others as well? Such questions excite modern planetary scientists and astro-biologists. This situation is a far cry from ancient times when the five planets that can be seen from Earth without a telescope were called the "wandering stars".
