Sinossi

How Elements Form explores the fascinating process of nucleosynthesis, which explains the origin of all elements in the universe. From the hydrogen created in the Big Bang to the gold forged in supernovae, this book unveils how these elements came to be. It highlights the crucial roles of Big Bang nucleosynthesis, stellar nucleosynthesis, and explosive nucleosynthesis in supernovae, emphasizing how these processes shaped the universe's evolution and the life cycles of stars. Understanding element formation is key to unlocking mysteries in astrophysics, cosmology, and even chemistry.

 
The book begins with the Big Bang and the creation of light elements, then progresses to stellar nucleosynthesis, explaining how stars fuse heavier elements in their cores. Finally, it delves into supernovae, where the heaviest elements are created and dispersed. A unique aspect of this book is its accessible approach to complex topics, providing clear explanations and examples while avoiding excessive jargon.

 
Through astronomical observations, nuclear physics experiments, and cosmological simulations, How Elements Form offers a holistic view, connecting theoretical physics with observational astronomy.

    Broadcast at 6 a.m. and midnight on RTÉ Radio 1, the Sea Area Forecast has come to occupy an almost sacrosanct place in the day for many. Its familiar (though often incomprehensible) language acts as a wake-up alarm for a proportion of the population and sends another swathe of them to bed at the end of the day.
    Yet few people truly understand its unique language and the significance of the romantic sounding headlands whose locations are central to revealing the incoming weather. From Mizen Head to Malin, Valentia to Loop Head, Carlingford Lough to Hook Head, rising or falling slowly, backing south-east to north-east or veering south-to-south-west – what does it all mean?
    Here, meteorologist Joanna Donnelly goes on a journey around Ireland's Sea Area Forecast. Visiting the places that are a familiar part of the daily broadcast and explaining the history, language and science associated with it, From Malin Head to Mizen Head fans our endless fascination with the weather while sweeping us away on a journey around Ireland's most remote headlands.

    Rocky Mountain is a park built vertically.
    
    Ancient rock rose. Ice carved valleys and basins. Water reached a divide and moved toward opposite sides of a continent. Forest gave way to tundra. Animals adapted to narrower and colder worlds as elevation increased.
    
    William Stanek's The Living Rocky Mountain Biography follows uplift, glaciation, headwaters, alpine ecology, wildlife, Indigenous corridors, settlement, tourism, road building, water engineering, park creation, management, climate, and the growing limits of high-country access.
    
    The Continental Divide is more than a line across a map.
    
    It is the organizing idea of a landscape where a few feet can change the destination of water-and a few thousand feet can change almost everything about life.

    A passionate animal lover, Jérôme Pensu denounces the trafficking of wild animals in France, which is worth hundreds of millions of euros every year; he explains the mechanisms at play, the scale of the problem and the techniques used by criminals to make their business prosper; he points out, with specific cases to back it up, the incredible impunity enjoyed by fraudsters; and he lists a series of proposals to put an end, at last, to this scandal that endangers biodiversity - in other words, us.
    Sauvage! tells of pink flamingos atrophied to enrich zoos, macaques sent to their deaths in the name of environmental preservation, reptiles tortured for the needs of unscrupulous pet shops. He also talks about massive laundering, unashamed regularization and euthanasia of felines... All wild animals are concerned. He also talks about concrete, precise, immediate solutions that could put a stop to this massacre. 
    Because wildlife trafficking in France is not inevitable. It's up to each and every citizen to take part in the public debate to put an end to this scandal, which is almost as profitable as dealing hard drugs, and even more harmful in the long term for our planet and the human species. This book is also here to explain that anything is still possible, if citizens, families and children become aware of the uncontrolled traffic.
