Synopsis

Dark Matter Basics explores the compelling mystery of dark matter, which makes up approximately 85% of the universe's matter. The book investigates the evidence for its existence, primarily through observations like galaxy rotation curves, where galaxies rotate faster than expected based on visible matter alone. It also examines how dark matter influences the cosmos' large-scale structure and evolution.

The book provides necessary background in Newtonian gravity and general relativity, setting the stage for in-depth discussions. The book explores cosmological evidence from sources like the cosmic microwave background and gravitational lensing, alongside leading particle candidates such as WIMPs, axions, and sterile neutrinos. It also assesses alternative theories like Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND).

The book uniquely bridges theoretical models with experimental searches, explaining techniques used in dark matter detection, including experiments at CERN. It provides a comprehensive overview of the ongoing controversies, presenting different viewpoints to encourage informed conclusions. The book's approach is designed to be accessible, avoiding jargon and offering clear definitions. It progresses by first establishing the foundational knowledge, then exploring the evidence and theories, and finally analyzing alternative explanations. This makes complex topics in science, physics, astrophysics, and cosmology understandable for students, enthusiasts, and anyone intrigued by the universe's enigmas.

Squirrel - How a Backyard...

Nancy F. Castaldo

Squirrels are a common sight, seemingly everywhere in wild and urban nature. But squirrels are more than amusing backyard entertainers, and few of us know much about them or fully appreciate their role in keeping the environment healthy. As stress on the natural world intensifies, should we be paying more attention to the plight of squirrels?In Squirrel, Nancy Castaldo shines new light on this familiar backyard mammal, exploring their staggering diversity and the many surprising ways they shape our world, our communities, and our cultures. Each chapter explores an aspect of squirrels and their close and sometimes fraught association with humans: their importance to myriad ecosystems through sophisticated food-caching strategies; their introduction to nineteenth-century urban parks as adorable ambassadors for nature; their complicated global status as both invasive and endangered; their role as celebrated cultural icons and social media memes; and ultimately, why we must prevent population declines and protect their well-being while we can. Like other wildlife species, squirrels are increasingly stressed by climate change, and their speculative fate may foreshadow our own. The book includes a detailed bibliography, an exhaustive list of squirrel species and their status, and tips for coexisting peaceably with squirrels in our yards and neighborhoods.
