  • Theory of Fermi-liquids in Metals

    A Compact Overview as an Introduction to Theoretical Solid-State Physics

    by Michael Kinza ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This essential offers a compact introduction to the theory of Fermi liquid for physics students in their main studies. It forms the basis for an understanding of theoretical solid state physics and is part of every introductory lecture on this topic. After a brief overview of the Sommerfeld model of metals, the concept of the quasiparticle is introduced. Important calculations characterizing a ... Read more

  • Programming the Universe

    A Quantum Computer Scientist Takes on the Cosmos

    by Seth Lloyd ...
    Is the universe actually a giant quantum computer? According to Seth Lloyd, the answer is yes. All interactions between particles in the universe, Lloyd explains, convey not only energy but also information–in other words, particles not only collide, they compute. What is the entire universe computing, ultimately? “Its own dynamical evolution,” he says. “As the computation proceeds, reality ... Read more

  • Quantum Physics For Beginners

    Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Theory Explained

    by Jason Stephenson ...
    We may have lived knowing that the world around us operates in a way as if we observe them to be. This knowledge of how the universe operates, based primarily of our observations, has enabled us to predict actions and motions and allowed us to build machines and equipments that have made our lives easier and more enjoyable. The field that allowed us to do that is classical physics. The world, ... Read more

  • Theory of Quantum Physics

    Scientific Concepts, #5

    by Barry Bingham ...
    Series Book 5 - Scientific Concepts
    This book provides a beginner’s guide to this difficult and rarely understood topic.Quantum Physics is not generally easily understood and is a mystery to most people. Along with the theory of relativity, is one of the two major revolutionary ideas that shook the world of physics to the core in the early 20th century.The author takes a complex subject and breaks it down into easy to understand ...

  • Quantum Physics: From Illusion to Reality

    by gaoshan ...
    The double-slit experiment has been widely discussed since the founding of quantum mechanics. Nearly all textbooks on quantum mechanics use the experiment to illustrate the wave-particle duality of light and matter. According to Richard Feynman, the double-slit experiment contains the only mystery of quantum mechanics. After we have unveiled the mystery, we will be able to understand quantum ... Read more

  • Quantum Mechanics 2: Reality, Uncertainty, & Schrödinger’s Cat

    by Robert Piccioni ...
    Series series Everyone's Guide Series
    This book is the second stage of our exploration of Quantum Mechanics in the Everyone’s Guide Series. Readers will benefit from a prior reading of Quantum Mechanics: 1 Particles & Waves. Here, we explore wave packets, the quantum description of particles. We will see how wave packets lead inexorably to the Uncertainty Principle, a hallmark of Quantum Mechanics. We examine the physical and ... Read more

  • General Relativity 4: Astrophysics & Cosmology

    Advanced Topics

    by Robert Piccioni ...
    Series series Everyone's Guide Series
    All of modern astrophysics and cosmology stands on the foundation of General Relativity that is best expressed in tensors. This book, and its prequel General Relativity 3, present the clearest, most comprehensible, and most complete introduction to the tensor calculus of differential topology, which Einstein used to explain the cosmos. Derivations that are difficult to find elsewhere, are all ... Read more

  • Where Einstein had failed

    A compendium of New Physics

    by Claus Birkholz ...
    Einstein's revolutionary ideas had been suffering from his rudimentary mathematical knowledge beyond the domain of differential geometry. Thus, he never recognised the invariants of his General Relativity, and he never had been able to formulate his "World Formula".Hence, his basic equation remained somewhat blurry and fuzzy, touching just one of his invariants; the additional ones fully escaped ...

  • Quantum Gravity

    Reasoning with New Physics

    by Claus Birkholz ...
    The reproducibility of facts is the hallmark of a natural science, the impossibility of counting up to infinity that of a measuring process, and the "law of great numbers" that of statistics. A statement like "Nothing will come from nothing, and nothing gets lost" will yield conservation laws. Bell's own interpretation of his no-go theorems, then, will directly give Quantum Gravity, and it... ... Read more

  • The Logic of Simultaneity – Relativity without Inertial Frames

    by Priidu Tänava ...
    This book is an account of my first encounter with Einstein's Special Relativity. It is inevitable that in trying to unravel the theory's logical inconsistencies I did not at first attempt succeed in correcting it. The logic does not stand the test of a detailed follow through. Our fundamental understanding of relativity in the universe is thus still waiting to be put right. Patience. (Feb. 2019) ... Read more

  • Finite Theory of the Universe, Dark Matter Disproof and Faster-Than-Light Speed

    by Phil Bouchard ...
    The mathematical representation of General Relativity uses a four dimensional reference frame to position an object in time and space and tells us time is a linear variable that can have both a negative and positive value. This therefore implies time becomes itself a dimension and causes the theory to open doors to ideas such as: singularity, wormhole, paradoxes, etc.You will learn from this book ... Read more
