Summary

"Exploring Particles and Nuclei" is a comprehensive guide to the fascinating realm of subatomic physics. We delve into the fundamental building blocks of matter, from the intricate structure of atomic nuclei to the diverse array of particles that populate the universe.
We begin by unraveling the mysteries of the nucleus, exploring proton-neutron interactions, nuclear forces, and the stability of atomic nuclei. The book covers nuclear reactions, including fusion, fission, and radioactive decay, shedding light on the processes that power stars and fuel nuclear technologies.
Moving beyond the nucleus, we discuss quarks, leptons, and the fundamental forces governing their interactions. Readers will explore the Standard Model of particle physics, understanding the electromagnetic, weak, and strong forces, as well as the role of bosons and fermions.
The book also covers advanced topics such as particle accelerators, collisions, and the search for new particles and phenomena. We discuss the role of particle detectors in experimental physics and the implications of particle physics in cosmology and astrophysics.
With clear explanations, insightful discussions, and engaging illustrations, "Exploring Particles and Nuclei" is suitable for students, educators, and anyone curious about the nature of matter and the forces shaping our universe. Whether you're delving into nuclear physics for the first time or seeking a deeper understanding, this book provides a captivating journey into particle and nuclear physics.

    We drink it, celebrate with it, and barely question it—but what is alcohol really doing to us?Drinking alcohol can be fun; its chemical effects on our brain are fundamentally pleasurable, and it can have social benefits. Alcohol may also help us forget the worries in our lives and temporarily overcome psychological barriers to human interaction.But there are downsides. We now know that alcohol, even in quite modest amounts, is not good for our long-term health. So why do we, as humans, consume alcohol at all, and why does our tendency to drink “too much” vary from person to person? Pairing scientific expertise with his personal experiences, Dr. Charles Knowles offers us an accessible window into what really happens in our brains and bodies when we drink, and why we do it. People vary greatly in the amount of reward they derive from alcohol, both physically and mentally. It’s in the genes that we were born with and the environment in which we grew up. For some of us, alcohol is greatly enhancing; for others, it is not much fun at all.For the sober curious, those who may need help, and also readers just interested in a popular science book on what happens when we sip a glass of wine, Why We Drink Too Much teaches readers the science behind drinking and invites us to examine our relationship with alcohol.

    Lakes might be the most misunderstood bodies of water on earth. And while they may seem commonplace, without lakes our world would never be the same. In this revealing look at these lifegiving treasures, John Richard Saylor shows us just how deep our connection to still waters run. 
     
      
      
    Lakes is an illuminating tour through the most fascinating lakes around the world. Whether it's Lake Vostok, located more than two miles beneath the surface of Antarctica, whose water was last exposed to the atmosphere perhaps a million years ago; Lake Baikal in southern Siberia, the world's deepest and oldest lake formed by a rift in the earth's crust; or Lake Nyos, the so-called Killer Lake that exploded in 1986, resulting in hundreds of deaths, Saylor reveals to us the wonder that exists in lakes found throughout the world. Along the way we learn all the many forms that lakes take—how they come to be and how they feed and support ecosystems—and what happens when lakes vanish.

    Our universe has multiple origin stories, from religious creation myths to the Big Bang of scientists. But if we leave those behind and start from nothing—no matter, no cosmos, not even empty space—could we create a universe using only math? Irreverent and boundlessly creative, The Big Bang of Numbers invites us to try. 
     
     
     
    In this new mathematical origin story, mathematician and novelist Manil Suri creates a natural progression of ideas needed to design our world, starting with numbers and continuing through geometry, algebra, and beyond. He reveals the secret lives of real and imaginary numbers, teaches them to play abstract games with real-world applications, discovers unexpected patterns that connect humble lifeforms to enormous galaxies, and explores mathematical underpinnings for randomness and beauty. With evocative examples ranging from multidimensional crochet to the Mona Lisa's asymmetrical smile, as well as ingenious storytelling that helps illuminate complex concepts like infinity and relativity, The Big Bang of Numbers charts a playful, inventive course to existence. Mathematics, Suri shows, might best be understood not as something we invent to explain Nature, but as the source of all creation, whose directives Nature tries to obey as best she can.
