  • How to Live Much Longer

    The Mitochondrial DNA Connection

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This book is about why we age and how to fix it. Human aging, a complex biological process, has long eluded a unified explanation. The book explains that aging is fundamentally a cellular energy crisis, driven by the progressive accumulation of damage to the vulnerable DNA of mitochondria, the cell's primary energy producers. Drawing on this perspective, which emphasizes energy conservation and ... Read more

  • The Quantum Handshake

    Entanglement, Nonlocality and Transactions

    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book shines bright light into the dim recesses of quantum theory, where the mysteries of entanglement, nonlocality, and wave collapse have motivated some to conjure up multiple universes, and others to adopt a "shut up and calculate" mentality. After an extensive and accessible introduction to quantum mechanics and its history, the author turns attention to his transactional model. Using a ... Read more

  • Theory of the Nuclear Magnetic 1/T1 Relaxation Rate in Conventional and Unconventional Magnets

    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    One of the best ways to "lift the lid" on what is happening inside a given material is to study it using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Of particular interest are NMR 1/T1 relaxation rates, which measure how fast energy stored in magnetic nuclei is transferred to surrounding electrons.This thesis develops a detailed, quantitative theory of NMR 1/T1 relaxation rates, and shows for the first time ...
