  Nuclear Physics - Principles and...

  Nuclear physics is the branch of physics that studies the atomic nucleus, its constituents, and the interactions that govern its behavior. The field explores the fundamental forces that operate within the nucleus, particularly the strong nuclear force that binds protons and neutrons together, as well as the weak nuclear force that governs radioactive decay. Understanding the structure and dynamics of the nucleus provides insights into the origin of matter and the processes that drive the universe's evolution, including stellar nucleosynthesis and the formation of elements. 
  The history of nuclear physics began with the discovery of radioactivity by Henri Becquerel in 1896, followed by the identification of the electron by J.J. Thomson in 1897. The groundbreaking work of Ernest Rutherford in the early 20th century led to the discovery of the atomic nucleus, fundamentally altering the understanding of atomic structure. Rutherford’s gold foil experiment in 1911 demonstrated that atoms consist of a small, dense nucleus surrounded by a cloud of electrons. James Chadwick’s discovery of the neutron in 1932 further clarified the composition of the nucleus and laid the foundation for modern nuclear physics. 
  Nuclear physics encompasses several key areas of study, including nuclear structure, nuclear reactions, and nuclear decay. Nuclear structure focuses on understanding how protons and neutrons are arranged within the nucleus and how the strong nuclear force governs their interactions. Quantum mechanics plays a central role in modeling the energy levels and configurations of nucleons. Nuclear reactions involve the collision of nuclei, leading to the formation of new elements or the release of energy, as observed in nuclear fission and fusion. Nuclear decay describes the spontaneous transformation of unstable nuclei into more stable configurations, often accompanied by the emission of alpha, beta, or gamma radiation.

  Lindley's groundbreaking book tells the true story of mis- and dis-information, why we've fallen so hard for them both, and how every one of us can fight back. 
  We’re living through the post-truth years, where it can feel almost impossible to separate fact from fiction in the information that we’re fed. But is it possible to escape the opinions created by false information and fake news, spread by our closest loved ones, friends, right up to world leaders? 
  Yes. There is hope. 
  The second edition of The Future of Truth (and How to Get There) unmasks the tell-tale signs that manipulation leaves behind – even in a post-truth world. We build up an essential toolkit to stop, step back from and sidestep misinformation and disinformation wherever our timelines take us. Through neuroscience, conspiracy beliefs, journalism, politics and AI, we’ll take a journey to alt-reality and back to build a happier, healthier future of truth.

  Read by the author, Tim Smedley.The Times Book of the Year pickA gripping, thought-provoking and ultimately optimistic investigation into the world’s next great climate crisis – the scarcity of water.‘Smart, sobering, and scholarly. ’ – Steve Brusatte, author of The Rise and Fall of DinosaursWater scarcity is the next big climate crisis. Water stress – not just scarcity, but also quality issues caused by pollution – is already driving the first waves of climate refugees. Rivers are drying out before they meet the oceans and ancient lakes are disappearing. It’s increasingly clear that human mismanagement of water is dangerously unsustainable, for both ecological and human survival. And yet in recent years some key countries have been quietly and very successfully addressing water stress.How are Singapore and Israel, for example – both severely water-stressed countries – not in the same predicament as Chennai or California?In The Last Drop, award-winning environmental journalist Tim Smedley meets experts, victims, activists and pioneers to find out how we can mend the water table that our survival depends upon. He offers a fascinating, universally relevant account of the environmental and human factors that have led us to this point, and suggests practical ways to address the crisis, before it’s too late.'You will never see the water you use in the same way again' – Helen Czerski, BBC broadcaster
