This book was released on 2022-08-14 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about Dr. Jin Tong Wang’s collected research works included: 1) Brillouin “Small Angle, Right Angle and Backscattering”. There were achieved three significances, a) smallest angle scattering in the world at that time. It was a world record; b) discovered from small angle, right angle and backscattering results, the sound velocity was not a constant with the same phonon mode. It actually depends on the phone frequencies. At that time, no one in this field didn’t know how to interpret it. Based on the results in the study, published a paper in Physical Review B in 1986; 2) By the support of Office of Naval Research, we created quite a few navel Ferro-piezoelectric materials. We have done experiments on ferroelectricity, piezoelectricity and pyroelectricity measurements. Based on the experiment we have some intriguing findings; 3) We also work on theories on several topics. First of all, we proposed a displacive- order-disorder (DOD) ferroelectric transition model for para-ferroelectric phase transition mechanism. The paper was published in the well-known European journal “Ferroelectrics”. The DOD phase transition mechanism clarified the long-time dispute whether the para-ferroelectric phase transition was displacive or order-disorder one; 4) Derived an Accurate Formulation of Faraday, Magnetic Circular Dichroism (MCD) and Kerr Effect of Light in Ferro-electromagnet.; 5) published several papers in the frontier of quantum mechanics including: the red shift of photon frequency in gravitational potential; the mechanism of electron photo emission; the unification of classical mechanics and quantum mechanics; the origin of quantum particle entanglement and quantum wave packet tunneling. Some papers have caught attentions by physics communities; 5) two patents created by author. One is microwave-plasma and plasma torch gasifier. Another one is plasma torch directly refine metal titanium; 6) Also published some papers in Chinese. Some were appeared well-known Chinese News Paper. In some paper, the advantages and disadvantages in two social systems were analyzed in physical point of view. All these published papers are edited in this collection.

Download or read book Quantum Legacies written by David Kaiser and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2020-03-25 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ideas at the root of quantum theory remain stubbornly, famously bizarre: a solid world reduced to puffs of probability; particles that tunnel through walls; cats suspended in zombielike states, neither alive nor dead; and twinned particles that share entangled fates. For more than a century, physicists have grappled with these conceptual uncertainties while enmeshed in the larger uncertainties of the social and political worlds around them, a time pocked by the rise of fascism, cataclysmic world wars, and a new nuclear age. In Quantum Legacies, David Kaiser introduces readers to iconic episodes in physicists’ still-unfolding quest to understand space, time, and matter at their most fundamental. In a series of vibrant essays, Kaiser takes us inside moments of discovery and debate among the great minds of the era—Albert Einstein, Erwin Schrödinger, Stephen Hawking, and many more who have indelibly shaped our understanding of nature—as they have tried to make sense of a messy world. Ranging across space and time, the episodes span the heady 1920s, the dark days of the 1930s, the turbulence of the Cold War, and the peculiar political realities that followed. In those eras as in our own, researchers’ ambition has often been to transcend the vagaries of here and now, to contribute lasting insights into how the world works that might reach beyond a given researcher’s limited view. In Quantum Legacies, Kaiser unveils the difficult and unsteady work required to forge some shared understanding between individuals and across generations, and in doing so, he illuminates the deep ties between scientific exploration and the human condition.

Download or read book Physics Before and After Einstein written by M. Mamone Capria and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2005-04-22 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is now a century ago that one of the icons of modern physics published some of the most influential scientific papers of all times. With his work on relativity and quantum theory, Albert Einstein has altered the field of physics forever. It should not come as a surprise that looking back at Einstein's work, one needs to rethink the whole scope of physics, before and after his time. This books aims to provide a perspective on the history of modern physics, spanning from the late 19th century up to today. It is not an encyclopaedic work, but it presents the groundbreaking and sometimes provocative main contributions by Einstein as marking the line between ‘old’ and ‘new’ physics, and expands on some of the developments and open issues to which they gave rise. This presentation is not meant as a mere celebration of Einstein’s work, but as a critical appraisal which provides accurate historical and conceptual information. The contributing authors all have a reputation for working on themes related to Einstein’s work and its consequences. Therefore, the collection of papers gives a good representation of what happened in the 100 years after Einstein’s landmark Annalen der Physik articles. All people interested in the field of physics, history of science and epistemology could benefit from this book. An effort has been made to make the book attractive not only to scientists, but also to people with a more basic knowledge of mathematics and physics.
