Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a long time after the discovery in 1964, by Christenson, Cronin, Fitch and Turlay, that the long-lived neutral kaon decays both into three and into two pions, which has since been taken as proof of CP violation, successive new and more precise experiments confirmed the original evidence and provided results compatible with a phenomenological description confining the CP violation to the mixing between neutral kaons and antikaons. However the Standard Model, with three generations of quarks, linking as it does CP violation to the presence of a single non trivial phase in the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa quark mixing matrix, implies that if CP violation exists at all, then it is a general property of weak interactions, appearing in transitions were amplitudes involving all three quark families interfere with each other, producing effects with a magnitude related to that of the CKM coefficients. This fact has stimulated an impressive amount of theoretical work leading in many cases to precise predictions. This publication reviews the field, from both the theoretical and experimental point of view, while planning for the forthcoming experimentation at LHC and considering possible new facilities for kaon, B meson and neutrino physics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of Unique Physics of Light and Astronomy, a brand new title from Professor Kadakia, is on the processes responsible for the creation of light and its interaction with matter. After several years of extensive research in light wave physics, the author realized that several past physicists had left unexplained gaps in their theories characterizing the behavior of radiation entities in general, and light waves in particular. Though Einstein had postulated a dual nature of of light and radiation, namely a particle and a wave, which travelled at a constant speed c in space, he did not describe the physical phenomenon for the origination of radiant energy. In this text book, we reveal the unique events surrounding the creation of light and radiation waves. They are germinated from a quantum phenomenon, electrons dissipate energy during orbital transitions, inherently due to a quantized change in their energy states while performing oscillations within electrostatic charge field of protons. Thus, the frequencies and the speed of all radiation is set by the reverberation of the charge field that is independent of the motion of atoms and objects. Moreover, various types of radiation is thus considered as manifestations of oscillations of the charge field at different frequencies and, therefore, are not electromagnetic in nature. The readers of this text will be amazed by the several stunning breakthrough ideas presented here. For instance, we developed a novel concept for the probability of finding a radiation quantum in Richard Feynman's QED that is determined from the wave function of a particle electron that creates the radiation. Another remarkable fact that is postulated by us is that "Black Holes" do not possess a singularity, as was made popular by Stephen Hawking, inasmuch as they are quark stars in reality. Finally, we proudly announce that we have revised the most celebrated mass-energy equivalence expression, as postulated by Albert Einstein, for translation of matter into energy E = mc2 to new a relationship to wit: E = Ʃmneutrinoc2 + Ʃhfradiation.
Download or read book Quantum Un Speakables II written by Reinhold Bertlmann and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-15 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This self-contained essay collection is published to commemorate half a century of Bell’s theorem. Like its much acclaimed predecessor “Quantum [Un]Speakables: From Bell to Quantum Information” (published 2002), it comprises essays by many of the worlds leading quantum physicists and philosophers. These revisit the foundations of quantum theory as well as elucidating the remarkable progress in quantum technologies achieved in the last couple of decades. Fundamental concepts such as entanglement, nonlocality and contextuality are described in an accessible manner and, alongside lively descriptions of the various theoretical and experimental approaches, the book also delivers interesting philosophical insights. The collection as a whole will serve as a broad introduction for students and newcomers as well as delighting the scientifically literate general reader.
Download or read book Frontiers of Fundamental Physics written by M. Barone and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Olympia conference Frontiers of Fundamental Physics was a gathering of about hundred scientists who carryon their research in conceptually important areas of physical science (they do "fundamental physics"). Most of them were physicists, but also historians and philosophers of science were well represented. An important fraction of the participants could be considered "heretical" because they disagreed with the validity of one or several fundamental assumptions of modern physics. Common to all participants was an excellent scientific level coupled with a remarkable intellectual honesty: we are proud to present to the readers this certainly unique book. Alternative ways of considering fundamental matters should of course be vitally important for the progress of science, unless one wanted to admit that physics at the end of the XXth century has already obtained the final truth, a very unlikely possibility even if one accepted the doubtful idea of the existence of a "final" truth. The merits of the Olympia conference should therefore not be judged a priori in a positive or in a negative way depending on one's refusal or acceptance, respectively, but considered after reading the actual of basic principles of contemporary science, new proposals and evidences there presented. They seem very important to us.
Download or read book Questioning the Foundations of Physics written by Anthony Aguirre and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-01-24 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this book look at way in which the fundaments of physics might need to be changed in order to make progress towards a unified theory. They are based on the prize-winning essays submitted to the FQXi essay competition “Which of Our Basic Physical Assumptions Are Wrong?”, which drew over 270 entries. As Nobel Laureate physicist Philip W. Anderson realized, the key to understanding nature’s reality is not anything “magical”, but the right attitude, “the focus on asking the right questions, the willingness to try (and to discard) unconventional answers, the sensitive ear for phoniness, self-deception, bombast, and conventional but unproven assumptions.” The authors of the eighteen prize-winning essays have, where necessary, adapted their essays for the present volume so as to (a) incorporate the community feedback generated in the online discussion of the essays, (b) add new material that has come to light since their completion and (c) to ensure accessibility to a broad audience of readers with a basic grounding in physics. The Foundational Questions Institute, FQXi, catalyzes, supports, and disseminates research on questions at the foundations of physics and cosmology, particularly new frontiers and innovative ideas integral to a deep understanding of reality, but unlikely to be supported by conventional funding sources.

Download or read book Neutrinos in High Energy and Astroparticle Physics written by Jose Wagner Furtado Valle and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-04-20 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This self-contained modern textbook provides a modern description of the Standard Model and its main extensions from the perspective of neutrino physics. In particular it includes a thorough discussion of the varieties of seesaw mechanism, with or without supersymmetry. It also discusses schemes where neutrino mass arises from lighter messengers, which might lie within reach of the world's largest particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider. Throughout the text, the book stresses the role of neutrinos due to the fact that neutrino properties may serve as a guide to the correct model of unification, hence for a deeper understanding of high energy physics, and because neutrinos play an important role in astroparticle physics and cosmology. Each chapter includes summaries and set of problems, as well as further reading.
