  • String Theory and the Scientific Method

    de Richard Dawid ...
    String theory has played a highly influential role in theoretical physics for nearly three decades and has substantially altered our view of the elementary building principles of the Universe. However, the theory remains empirically unconfirmed, and is expected to remain so for the foreseeable future. So why do string theorists have such a strong belief in their theory? This book explores this ... Leer más

  • Why Trust a Theory?

    Epistemology of Fundamental Physics

    Do we need to reconsider scientific methodology in light of modern physics? Has the traditional scientific method become outdated, does it need to be defended against dangerous incursions, or has it always been different from what the canonical view suggests? To what extent should we accept non-empirical strategies for scientific theory assessment? Many core aspects of contemporary fundamental ... Leer más

  • Black Holes, Supernovae & More

    Series series Everyone's Guide Series
    This book continues our exploration of stars. Here we discuss the spectacular ways in which stars die, creating supernovae that are some of the most violent events in our universe. We also explore the exotic remnants of these explosions: white dwarfs, neutron stars, and particularly, black holes. We examine how black holes can grow as massive as small galaxies, and how they can evaporate through ... Leer más

  • The Black Hole Universe

    This book describes the logic behind why the universe is more than likely simply a very large black hole; a universe-size black hole in an even larger universe. It also shows how that the unique size and age of the universe is directly linked to the amount of mass within it. And that the notion of an expanding universe or a universe with a specific size and age is really more of an observational ... Leer más

  • What Really Happens When You Die?

    Cosmology, time and you

    What happens to us when we die? It's a question that has sought answers from religion; philosophy; the supernatural; and, more recently, to evidence from 'near death' experience. But never, it seems, from science. Yet that's where the answer appears to lie. Specifically, in cosmology, the study of the history and future of the universe.Taking his inspiration from Stephen Hawking's groundbreaking A ... Leer más
