  Lost Towns of the Swift River...

  In April 1938, Swift River Valley residents held a farewell ball to mark the demise of the quintessential New England town of Enfield and its three smaller neighbors, Greenwich, Dana, and Prescott. 
   
   
   
  The Commonwealth of Massachusetts sacrificed these three towns to build the Quabbin, a massive reservoir of drinking water for residents of Boston. Three prominent residents attended the somber occasion. Marion Andrews Smith was the last surviving member of an important manufacturing family. Willard "Doc" Segur was the valley's beloved country doctor and town leader. And Edwin Henry Howe was Enfield's postmaster and general store proprietor. They helped build their beloved community for decades, only to watch grief-stricken as it was destroyed by 400 billion gallons of water. 
   
   
   
  Author and historian Elena Palladino recounts the story of these communities as seen through eyes of those who lived there until the end.

  Atoms Unleashed - Fusion's...

  Fusion energy, often described as the “holy grail” of power sources, holds the potential to revolutionize how we generate electricity and tackle global energy challenges. At its core, fusion is the process that powers the sun and stars, where two light atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing vast amounts of energy in the process. The promise of harnessing this natural phenomenon for human use is one of the most exciting scientific endeavors of our time. 
  The appeal of fusion energy lies in its virtually limitless potential. Unlike conventional energy sources such as fossil fuels, which are finite and contribute to environmental degradation, fusion uses fuels like deuterium and tritium, isotopes of hydrogen that are abundant in water and lithium. These fuels are not only plentiful, but the fusion process produces no greenhouse gases or long-lived radioactive waste, making it an incredibly clean energy source. In theory, fusion could provide an inexhaustible supply of energy, helping to meet the world’s growing demand while reducing the environmental impacts associated with other forms of energy production. 
  In addition to its environmental benefits, fusion energy promises to be a game-changer for energy security. As the global population increases and industrialization expands, the demand for energy will continue to rise. Traditional sources like coal, oil, and natural gas are becoming increasingly insufficient, both in terms of supply and sustainability. Nuclear fission, while capable of generating large amounts of energy, carries significant risks, such as nuclear accidents and the challenge of radioactive waste disposal. Fusion, on the other hand, offers a potentially safer alternative, with no risk of runaway reactions and no long-term waste problems.

  Classical Electrodynamics -...

  Electromagnetic theory is one of the fundamental pillars of physics, providing the framework for understanding electric and magnetic fields and their interactions. It is essential not only for classical physics but also for modern advancements in engineering, communications, and quantum mechanics. This chapter introduces the historical development of electrodynamics and the significance of Maxwell’s equations, which form the foundation of classical electromagnetism. 
  The origins of electromagnetic theory can be traced back to early observations of static electricity and magnetism. The ancient Greeks, particularly Thales of Miletus, noted that rubbing amber could attract small objects, laying the groundwork for electrostatics. By the 17th century, William Gilbert’s studies on magnetism and Benjamin Franklin’s experiments on electricity further developed the understanding of electric and magnetic phenomena. The 18th and 19th centuries saw rapid progress, with Charles-Augustin de Coulomb formulating the inverse-square law of electrostatics and André-Marie Ampère discovering the relationship between current and magnetic fields. Michael Faraday’s groundbreaking work on electromagnetic induction demonstrated that a changing magnetic field could induce an electric current, setting the stage for the unification of electricity and magnetism.
