Die freie Wissenschaft ist ein bevorzugter Gegner autoritärer Politik. Ihre Unabhängigkeit und Wahrheitsverpflichtung stehen einem illiberalen politischen Projekt offensichtlich im Weg. [...]

This groundbreaking work challenges traditional notions of constants and invariance in physics by exploring how physical phenomena transform under kinetic and thermodynamic conditions. It demonstrates that every phenomenon emerges through causal and dual interactions, revealing that nothing in nature can be regarded as truly constant.Through a deep analysis of chaotic systems, the study shows how derivatives and integrals-used differently in physics than in mathematics-unveil the hidden order within complexity.

Didaktisch geschickt und verständlich vermittelt das 4-bändige Lehrbuch die Technische Mechanik. Band 4 erläutert weiterführende Themen wie allgemeine Torsionstheorie, Wölbkrafttorsion und Instabilitätsprobleme bei Stabtragwerken - erneut mithilfe charakteristischer origineller Zeichnungen..

Introduction -- Electromagnetic Radiation -- Gravity -- Gravitational Waves: The New Window to the Universe -- Compact Sources of Gravitational Waves -- Evidence for the Existence of Gravitational Waves: The Binary Pulsar -- Gravitational Wave Detectors -- Gravitational Wave Detections -- New methods for the Detection of Gravitational Waves -- Future Projects for the Detection of Gravitational Waves from the Ground and Space

Elegant Equations is about fifty short equations. Each one small enough to write on a napkin, and large enough to change how we measure land, move planets, send messages, or think about chance. [...]

"This graduate-level text offers a comprehensive yet accessible guide to the conceptual theory and practical consequences of spontaneous symmetry breaking. It addresses and demystifies common misconceptions and contains many exercises and larger projects, making it a valuable resource for students, teachers, and researchers"-- Provided by publisher

"This graduate-level volume is a coherent and self-contained introduction to Quantum Field Theory, uniquely focused on geometric and non-perturbative aspects. The first part covers quantum fields and Euclidean path integral, Yang-Mills field theories, and Wilsonian renormalization [...]

This book presents a comprehensive compilation of S-factor data from more than 300 experiments on 18 key reactions in big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN). It offers empirical fits to the available data and discusses the relevance of each reaction within the broader context of BBN. [...]

Alle für die Lehramtsausbildung relevanten Teilgebiete der Physik werden in der fünfbändigen Lehrbuchreihe auf dem Niveau der Anfängervorlesungen behandelt, wobei die fachliche Darstellung mit der fachdidaktischen Perspektive verknüpft wird. Hervorgehobene Blöcke widmen sich typischen Alltagsvorstellungen, dem für Schüler interessanten phänomenologischen Zugang und typischen Verständnisschwierigkeiten. [...]

Topology plays a fundamental role in many branches of mathematics and science. In recent years, there has been a resurgence of interest in physics, particularly in condensed matter physics. [...]
