Знаете ли вы, что такое время? А как придумали теорию струн? Какой химический элемент – самый большой в мире? А вот Дмитрий Побединский, физик, популярный видеоблогер и постоянный автор «Чердака», знает – и может рассказать! Существуют ли параллельные вселенные? Можно ли создать настоящий световой меч? Что почувствует искусственный интеллект при первом поцелуе? Как устроена черная дыра? На эти и другие вопросы, которые любого из нас способны поставить в тупик, отвечает Дмитрий – легко и доступно...

Впервые лекция под названием «Черные дыры и молодые вселенные» была прочитана в Калифорнийском университете в Беркли. Дополненная размышлениями Стивена Хокинга на эту и смежные темы, она стала частью настоящего сборника, составленного из 13 эссе и развернутого интервью. На этих страницах самый известный астрофизик современности толкует наиболее вероятные модели устройства Вселенной. Это продолжение диалога с читателем, начатого в книге «Краткая история времени». Автор рассуждает о воображаемом...

У вас в руках сборник рейтовских лекций Стивена Хокинга о черных дырах, прочитанных на BBC Radio 4. Трудно вообразить, кто мог бы рассказать об одних из самых загадочных космических объектов интереснее и проще, чем человек, сделавший космологию популярной наукой и отдавший многие годы изучению связанных с черными дырами эффектов. Те вопросы, которые остались без ответа, растолковал Дэвид Шукман, научный редактор BBC. Рейтовские лекции, или лекции имени лорда Джона Рейта, первого генерального...

Наши представления о черных дырах чаще всего основываются на популярных мифах и нескольких общеизвестных научных фактах. Описывая историю исследования черных дыр, Крис Импи с легкостью развенчивает наиболее распространенные заблуждения и приоткрывает дверь в загадочный мир далеких звезд и их невидимых, но влиятельных спутниц. История астрофизики предстает как череда потрясающих открытий, сделанных несколькими поколениями увлеченных и талантливейших ученых, сумевших описать прошлое, настоящее и...

Explores how two coastal ecosystems are responding to the pressures of human expansion The Northern Adriatic Sea, a continental shelf ecosystem in the Northeast Mediterranean Sea, and the Chesapeake Bay, a major estuary of the mid-Atlantic coast of the United States, are semi-enclosed, river-dominated ecosystems with urbanized watersheds that support extensive industrial agriculture. Coastal Ecosystems in Transition: A Comparative Analysis of the Northern Adriatic and Chesapeake Bay ...

A practical methodology for designing integrated automation control for systems and processes Implementing digital control within mechanical-electronic (mechatronic) systems is essential to respond to the growing demand for high-efficiency machines and processes. In practice, the most efficient digital control often integrates time-driven and event-driven characteristics within a single control scheme. However, most of the current engineering literature on the design of digital control systems...

Every city dweller is aware that we are seeing fewer stars at night due to the increasing amount of artificial lighting. But that is just the tip of the iceberg, as far as the loss of natural nocturnal darkness is concerned. Humans and animals worldwide are now suffering from the disrupted rhythm of day and night due to extreme lighting at night. In humans this can lead to illness and increased stress. Hitherto only known to experts, this book is the first to comprehensively treat the entire...

Покорители далеких планет часто становятся героями книг или фантастических фильмов. Они пересекают пояса астероидов, проносятся мимо живописных планет-гигантов, поднимаются на склоны инопланетных гор и любуются внеземными закатами… Будущее наступило, но не такое, как мы хотели. Теперь изучают и открывают космос настоящие покорители – роботы. Вместе с ними люди, не покидая Земли, пересекают миллионы километров пустоты, преодолевают трудности, находят решение в безвыходной ситуации и открывают нам...

All living matter is comprised of cells, small compartments isolated from the environment by a cell membrane and filled with concentrated solutions of various organic and inorganic compounds. Some organisms are single-cell, where all life functions are performed by that cell. Others have groups of cells, or organs, specializing in one particular function. The survival of the entire organism depends on all of its cells and organs fulfilling their roles. While the cells are studied by different...

The dynamics of quantum systems exposed to ultrafast (at the femtosecond time-scale) and strong laser radiation has a highly non-linear character, leading to a number of new phenomena, outside the reach of traditional spectroscopy. The current laser technology makes feasible the probing and control of quantum-scale systems with fields that are as strong as the interatomic Coulombic interactions and time resolution that is equal to (or less than) typical atomic evolution times. It is...

This book uses art photography as a point of departure for learning about physics, while also using physics as a point of departure for asking fundamental questions about the nature of photography as an art. Although not a how-to manual, the topics center around hands-on applications, sometimes illustrated by photographic processes that are inexpensive and easily accessible to students (including a versatile new process developed by the author, and first described in print in this series). A...

This book provides a brief exposition of the principles of beam physics and particle accelerators with an emphasis on numerical examples employing readily available computer tools. However, it avoids detailed derivations, instead inviting the reader to use general high-end languages such as Mathcad and Matlab, as well as specialized particle accelerator codes (e.g. MAD, WinAgile, Elegant, and others) to explore the principles presented. This approach allows readers to readily identify relevant...

In the last years there have been great advances in the applications of topology and differential geometry to problems in condensed matter physics. Concepts drawn from topology and geometry have become essential to the understanding of several phenomena in the area. Physicists have been creative in producing models for actual physical phenomena which realize mathematically exotic concepts and new phases have been discovered in condensed matter in which topology plays a leading role. An important...
