Synopsis

"Green Flash Phenomenon" explores the science behind this rare and captivating optical phenomenon, a fleeting burst of green light sometimes seen at sunrise or sunset. The book delves into the atmospheric optics responsible, explaining how atmospheric refraction, influenced by air density and temperature gradients, bends sunlight to create this effect. It highlights the specific meteorological conditions needed for a sighting, such as a clear horizon, and explores the different types of green flashes, including the mirage flash and green ray. This book bridges the gap between abstract physics and observable science, demystifying what's often perceived as mystical. By tracing the green flash through history, folklore, and scientific observation, the book illustrates how our understanding has evolved. Starting with basic optical principles, the book progresses through the physics of refraction and dispersion, leading to an understanding of how we can predict and interpret sightings. The book’s value lies in its comprehensive yet accessible approach, blending scientific rigor with engaging storytelling. It uses illustrative examples and diagrams to explain complex concepts, making it suitable for weather enthusiasts, amateur astronomers, and anyone curious about natural phenomena and citizen science.

    A black hole is a region in space where the gravitational pull is so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape from it. This occurs when a massive amount of matter is compressed into a very small area, creating a powerful gravitational field. 
    Black holes form through various processes that involve the collapse of massive astronomical objects and the merging of smaller black holes. One primary method is the stellar collapse. Stars, during their lifecycle, fuse hydrogen into helium in their cores. When the hydrogen is depleted, they begin fusing heavier elements until iron is produced. For stars more than 20 times the mass of the Sun, the end of this fusion process leads to a supernova explosion. The core of the star collapses rapidly due to gravity, and if the core's mass is sufficiently large (typically more than about three times the mass of the Sun), it will continue collapsing into a singularity, forming a stellar-mass black hole. 
      
    Another way black holes can form is through accretion and growth. A compact object like a neutron star or a white dwarf can accumulate matter from a companion star or its surroundings. As this matter accumulates, the mass of the compact object increases, and it may eventually reach a critical mass where it collapses into a black hole.

    In this lively and entertaining work, Witold Rybczynski—hailed as "one of the best writers on design working today" by Publishers Weekly—tells the story of the most distinctive cars in history and the artists, engineers, dreamers, and gearheads who created them. Delving into more than 170 years of ingenuity in design, technology, and engineering, he takes us from Carl Benz's three-wheel motorcar in 1855 to the present-day shift to electric cars. Along the way, he looks at the emergence of mass production with Henry Ford's Model T; the Golden Age of American car design and the rise of car culture; postwar European subcompacts typified by the Mini Cooper; and the long tradition of the streamlined and elegant sports car. 
     
     
     
    Rybczynski explores how cars have been reflections of national character (the charming Italian Fiat Cinquecento), icons of a subculture (the VW bus for American hippies), and even emblems of an era (the practical Chrysler minivan). He explains key developments in automotive technology, including the electric starter, rack-and-pinion steering, and disc brakes, bringing to light how the modern automobile is the result of more than a century of trial and error. And he weaves in charming accounts of the many cars he's owned and driven, starting with his first—the iconic Volkswagen Beetle. The Driving Machine is a fascinating history of design.
