Kvantemekanikken er en fantastisk og forunderlig teori. Den blev formuleret i 1920'erne og beskrev universets mindste byggesten som paradoksale og uforudsigelige: Elektroner kan tilsyneladende vAere flere steder pa en gang, og malinger pa dem giver altid tilfAeldige resultater. Den nye teori blev en enorm succes, men fortolkningen af den splittede samtidig tidens storste videnskabsmAend, sAerligt Niels Bohr og Albert Einstein.Denne bog gennemgar kvantemekanikkens og fysikkens udvikling i...
This book will challenge everything you have ever believed about the nature of time. Using modern day analytic techniques it unveils anagrams within Nostradamus lettering that are undeniably there. But they have no right to be. They explode the mind via their complexity, linkages and modernity. And it is set out so that you can see it for yourself. Yet a new frame for understanding is built while its flow saps at all reason. How did Nostradamus do it? What was his goal? Why write for us, 500...
Scholarly writing on the music of Arvo Pärt is situated primarily in the fields of musicology, cultural and media studies, and, more recently, in terms of theology/spirituality.<i> Arvo Pärt: </i><i>Sounding the Sacred</i> focuses on the representational dimensions of Pärt’s music (including the trope of silence), writing and listening past the fact that its storied effects and affects are carried first and foremost as vibrations through air, impressing themselves on the...
Heat is a branch of thermodynamics that occupies a unique position due to its involvement in the field of practice. Being linked to the management, transport and exchange of energy in thermal form, it impacts all aspects of human life and activity. <p>Heat transfers are, by nature, classified as conduction, convection (which inserts conduction into fluid mechanics) and radiation. The importance of these three transfer methods has resulted – justifiably – in a separate volume being afforded...
A comprehensive review of global ionospheric research from the polar caps to equatorial regions 9; It's more than a century since scientists first identified the ionosphere, the layer of the Earth's upper atmosphere that is ionized by solar and cosmic radiation. Our understanding of this dynamic part of the near-Earth space environment has greatly advanced in recent years thanks to new observational technologies, improved numerical models, and powerful computing capabilities.9; ...
Benefit from a much-needed, up-to-date handbook on underwater inspection and repair processes and technologies Underwater Inspection and Repair for Offshore Structures fills a gap in the literature to provide an overview of the inspection and repair processes for both steel and concrete offshore structures. Authors and noted experts on the topic John Sharp and Gerhard Esdal guide readers through the reasons why inspection and repair are performed and how both are linked to the management of...
The book provides a broad overview of what we currently know about the Origin and Evolution of the Universe. The goal is to be scientifically comprehensive but concise. We trace the origins from the Big Bang and cosmic expansion, to the formation of galaxies, heavy elements, stars and planets as abodes for life. This field has made stunning progress since the first edition of this book. At that time, there were no known planets outside of our own Solar System (compared with the many thousands...
