General Relativity Conflict and Rivalries
Galina Weinstein investigates Albert Einstein and his interactions with various scientists, focusing on their implicit and explicit responses to his work. This analysis reveals the central figures who influenced Einstein during his work on the general theory of relativity.
This book is a monograph on Albert Einstein’s odyssey to Special and General Relativity. Bringing together recent studies, it offers an in-depth analysis of the genesis of his theories, Einstein’s own derivations, and the philosophical perspectives of his work.
This book is devoted to a quasi-classical treatment of quantum transitions, with an emphasis on magnetic and electric dipolar resonance. In addition to known results, it presents parametric resonance for electric dipoles, which may lead to spontaneous electric polarization.
Philosophical Semantics
This book offers an innovative systematic approach to meaning and reference, unifying insights from philosophers like Wittgenstein and Frege while exposing errors of formalists from Quine to Kripke. It shows how the cartography of philosophy of language can be redrawn.
This book proposes a model of light knot electronic structure, challenging the interpretation of quantum entanglement and proving a paradox in the uncertainty relationship. It establishes the foundation for a deterministic, local-realism quantum mechanics.
This book discusses the basic tools of mathematical physics for physicists, mathematicians, and engineers. It reveals the indissoluble connection between physical ideas and mathematical concepts, emphasizing the physical origin and flexibility of the equations.
The unique experiments, numerous measurements, and resulting data presented here, have been collected over 30 years of research and prove with scientific precision, that consciousness involves more than just the brain, but actually depends on the very fabric of the universe.
The “Ultraviolet Catastrophe”, the failure to account for black-body radiation, led to quantum mechanics. Another catastrophe was politely ignored and fluid dynamics remained trapped in the nineteenth century. The book outlines a solution to this dilemma.
This textbook is a unique treatise on the present status of particle physics summarised for physics students at an introductory level: it provides insights into essential experimental and theoretical techniques and will gradually deepen the reader’s understanding of the field.
Entropy is one of the most interesting concepts in physics. Although a well-defined concept, it is still frequently perceived as one cloaked in mystery. This book, however, discusses entropy and the Second Law of Thermodynamics in such a way that everyone can understand them.
This book presents research on the diffraction, radiation, and propagation of elastic waves, focusing on interactions between bodies and media interfaces. It details solutions to three-dimensional wave problems for isotropic and anisotropic bodies using Debye potentials.
Dialogues on the New Physics
Eurythmic physics seeks to unify physics for a clearer view of nature. This book develops this approach, arguing that because physical phenomena are not linear, they must be understood from a nonlinear, interrelated, and complex perspective.
This book presents a complex approach to material composition determination using joint X-ray spectra of fluorescence, scattering, and diffraction. These methods widen the application of X-ray analysis for specialists in solid state physics and students.
This book offers a wide perspective on physics, from atoms to galaxies. It explains complicated issues through simple examples, combining popular science with scholarly insights and offering philosophical perspectives.
This book explores how simple optical systems can create fascinating quantum states, including Schrödinger’s cat-type states of light. Using abundant graphics over formulas, it makes modern quantum optics accessible to scientists, teachers, and students of physics.
This book takes a historical and geometrical approach to Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity. It details the latest developments in the field, including cutting-edge research on gravitational waves, black holes, and cosmology.
This book shows the objective beauty of science, from the micro- and macrocosm to the fundamental constants of the universe. It examines the human organism as a system and explores ways to transition from a state of “illness” to a state of “health”.
For physics scholars and general readers, this book explores the action of ultra-low doses on biological systems. It covers medicinal remedies like homeopathy, the influence of color and form, and the Twin Correlation.
This book is a guide to performing uniform broadband measurements with low uncertainty. It discusses radiometric, photometric, color, and LED measurements, and shows how to avoid large errors by standardizing the measurement procedure and using properly selected meters.
This book covers the diffraction, radiation, and propagation of elastic waves in isotropic and anisotropic media. It details key methods and their application to hydroacoustic antennas, loudspeakers, and the acoustic monitoring of oil products.
