The Math and Myth of Coincidence

by Joseph Mazur ...

A mathematical guide to understanding why life can seem to be one big coincidence-and why the odds of just about everything are better than we would think.What are the chances? This is the question we ask ourselves when we encounter the strangest and most seemingly impossible coincidences, like the woman who won the lottery four times or the fact that Lincoln's dreams foreshadowed his own ...

The Physics of Baseball

Third Edition, Revised, Updated, and Expanded

by Robert K. Adair ...

A "fascinating and irresistible" blend of science and sports that reveals what a baseball (or bat, or player) in motion does—and why ( The New York Times Book Review).How fast can a batted ball go? What effect do stitch patterns have on wind resistance? How far does a curveball break? Who reaches first base faster after a bunt, a right- or left-handed batter? The answers are often surprising—and ... Read more

Analysis of autochthonous lactic acid bacteria from mozzarella cheese production

by Floriana Ciarrocchi ...

Mozzarella cheese is one of the most popular members of the Pasta Filata cheeses. Previous investigations on the bacterial community of Mozzarella cheeses made from raw bovine milk showed that lactic acid bacteria (LAB) play a pivotal role in the definition of the characteristics of this unripened cheese. Many genera and species of mesophilic and thermophilic bacteria were found to be responsible ... Read more

Longitudinally Polarised Terahertz Radiation for Relativistic Particle Acceleration

by Matthew. J Cliffe ...

Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
This book elaborates on the acceleration of charged particles with ultrafast terahertz electromagnetic radiation. It paves the way for new, and improves many aspects of current, accelerator applications. These include providing shorter electron bunches for ultrafast time-resolved pump-probe spectroscopy, enabling complex longitudinal profiles to be imparted onto charged particle bunches and ...

Climate Change in Wildlands

Pioneering Approaches to Science and Management

by S. Thomas Olliff, Andrew J. Hansen, Dr., David M. Theobald, Dr., William B. Monahan ...

Scientists have been warning for years that human activity is heating up the planet and climate change is under way. In the past century, global temperatures have risen an average of 1.3 degrees Fahrenheit, a trend that is expected to only accelerate. But public sentiment has taken a long time to catch up, and we are only just beginning to acknowledge the serious effects this will have on all life ... Read more

Size Effects in Nanostructures

Basics and Applications

Edited by Lucica Miu, Victor Kuncser ...

Series series Chemistry and Material Science (R0)
The influence of size effects on the properties of nanostructures is subject of this book. Size and interfacial effects in oxides, semiconductors, magnetic and superconducting nanostructures, from very simple to very complex, are considered. The most general meaning is assumed for size effects, including not only the influence of a reduced dimension/dimensionality, but also specific interfacial ... Read more
