Sinossi

"Theory of Relativity" explores Albert Einstein's groundbreaking theories, which revolutionized our understanding of physics, space, and time. The book delves into both special and general relativity, explaining how these concepts reshaped our comprehension of gravity and the cosmos. It highlights how, contrary to previous beliefs, space and time are not absolute but are intertwined as a single continuum called spacetime. A key insight is Einstein's famous equation, E=mc², demonstrating the equivalence of mass and energy. The book progresses logically, beginning with the historical context that led to Einstein's work. It then introduces the postulates of special relativity, followed by an exploration of general relativity, including the principle of equivalence and the curvature of spacetime. Experimental evidence supporting these theories, such as gravitational lensing, is examined. Making complex ideas approachable, the book uses clear explanations and analogies. This approach ensures that readers gain a solid grasp of relativity's profound implications for cosmology, astrophysics, and our ongoing exploration of the universe.

Meteors - Asteroids Comets...

Steff Jaywan

Meteors, also known as shooting stars, are remnants of comets or asteroids that orbit the Sun. When these objects cross Earth's path, they enter the atmosphere at high speeds, often exceeding 25,000 miles per hour (40,000 kilometers per hour). As they travel through the atmosphere, the air resistance causes them to heat up and vaporize, creating the bright streaks of light we observe. 
  
Most meteors are small, ranging in size from a grain of sand to a pebble, and they typically burn up completely before reaching the ground. However, larger meteors can produce spectacular fireballs and may even survive the journey to become meteorites if they land on Earth's surface. 
  
Meteor showers occur when Earth passes through debris trails left behind by comets, resulting in an increased number of meteors visible in the night sky. Studying meteors provides valuable insights into the composition of our solar system and its history.

Particle Physics - A Very Short...

Frank Close

Following the discovery of the Higgs boson, Frank Close has produced this major revision to his classic and compelling introduction to the fundamental particles that make up the universe. Frank Close takes us on a journey into the atom to examine known particles such as quarks, electrons, and the ghostly neutrino, and explains the key role and significance of the Higgs boson. Along the way he provides fascinating insights into how discoveries in particle physics have actually been made, and discusses how our picture of the world has been radically revised in the light of these developments. He concludes by looking ahead to new ideas about the mystery of antimatter and massive neutrinos, and to what the next fifty years of research might reveal about the nature of the Higgs field which molds the fundamental particles and forces.
