Download or read book The ubiquitous mechanism accelerating cosmic rays at all the energies written by Antonio Codino and published by Società Editrice Esculapio. This book was released on 2021-02-04 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mechanism accelerating Cosmic rays in the milky way galaxy and galaxy clusters is identified and described. The acceleration of Cosmic rays is a purely electrostatic process which operate up to the maximum energies of 1023 ev in galaxy clusters. Galactic Cosmic rays are accelerated in a pervasive electrostatic field active in the whole galaxy except in restricted regions shielded by Interstellar and stellar plasma as, for instance, the region occupied by the Solar system. It is proved that the Energy spectrum of the Cosmic radiation in the milky way galaxy, in the region where the Solar system resides, has a constant Spectral index comprised between 2.64-2.68 and the maximum energies of galactic protons are 3.0 × 1019 ev. The agreement of these results with the experimental data is discussed in detail and highlighted. The various physical processes that maintain the stability of the electrostatic structure in the milky way galaxy are the same that generate the galactic magnetic field. Accordingly, the intensity, orientation and direction of the galactic magnetic field are evaluated. The results of the calculation are compared with the observation data, optical and mostly radio astronomi data. The accord of the intensity, orientation and direction of the observed magnetic field with calculation is excellent.

Download or read book Lange written by Beth Cheth and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lange has recently returned from a tour of duty with an oil exploration and pipeline company in the Near East. He had been incarcerated in an Arab jail for a number of months under almost inhumane conditions. Wrongly. While in the Arabian jail, to preserve his sanity, Lange had developed the ability to induce OOBE's. He didn't understand what was happening to him, he thought they were merely hallucinations. The setting is the Gulf Coast of Mississippi in the late 1980's when the U.S. oil giants had pulled out of the Arabian Gulf area. He was now back in the States looking for a job. Rhyme, a lovely young woman, is the ward and 'strong right arm' of George Westwood, an entrepreneur involved with the development of a fabulous new technology that turns out to be a system of communication with other time frames. Rhyme hires Lange and is attracted to him in spite of the differences in their ages. She is a student of the occult and lays the Tarot cards about Lange. They promise her 'Happiness and Joy'. Rhyme seduces Lange and decides he is her soul mate. She learns that Lange can achieve these conditions. They work on it together, very successfully. On their next attempt they visit an 'Orientation Platform' in the Astral World where they meet with Rhyme's grandmother, Cynthia, who, before her death, had been a major factor in Rhyme's early life. Rhyme's mother had died at childbirth. Lange moves in with Rhyme. There are a number of excursions into the Astral realms. On two they are given rides in a UFO. The first of these is an excursion into the adjoining territories of 'Athe'. On another occasion they take a friend along and they are given a tour of the two lover levels. The 'Orientation' is on the 'third level'. We have here a pretty good guide to achieving the same results (OOBE's) by your own efforts, if you care to try these tenets and the story does not deviate for their principles.

Download or read book The Infinity Puzzle written by Frank Close and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2011-10-27 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Speculation is rife that by 2012 the elusive Higgs boson will be found at the Large Hadron Collider. If found, the Higgs boson would help explain why everything has mass. But there's more at stake-what we're really testing is our capacity to make the universe reasonable. Our best understanding of physics is predicated on something known as quantum field theory. Unfortunately, in its raw form, it doesn't make sense-its outputs are physically impossible infinite percentages when they should be something simpler, like the number 1. The kind of physics that the Higgs boson represents seeks to "renormalize" field theory, forcing equations to provide answers that match what we see in the real world. The Infinity Puzzle is the story of a wild idea on the road to acceptance. Only Close can tell it"--

Download or read book Dao Theory Popular version Second edition written by Xiao Ran Huang and published by Xiao Ran Huang. This book was released on 2024-02-25 with total page 625 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In ancient China, the Origin of the universe was called Dao. Dao theory is the ultimate theory established by ancient Chinese thinkers based on the Origin of the universe. It is used to explain all basic phenomena in the universe, to guide people's thoughts and behaviors, and to establish a just and perfect society. Consciousness, soul and life are the most important phenomena in the universe and also the most difficult to explain. Using Dao theory, we can explain and study human soul, consciousness, emotions, feelings and life. Although consciousness, soul and life have complex and difficult sides, they also have simple and easy-to-understand sides. The basic principles that form consciousness, soul, and life are simple; Even if you only have a middle school or even elementary school education, you can understand it as long as you put in the effort. Dao theory is composed of Yin-yang theory and Dao Morality Scripture (Tao Te Ching). This book is divided into three parts: the first part briefly introduces the Dao theory founded by ancient Chinese thinkers; introduces the yin-yang theory, using the Yin-yang theory to explain consciousness, emotions and feelings; introduces the three major worlds that make up the universe: the Dao world, the Soul world and Human world. The second part translates and interprets the Dao Morality Scripture. The third part introduces the application of Dao theory in contemporary human society. In Dao Morality Scripture, Lao Zi advocates "zero-action", "keeping the middle", "pure-quiet", "fraternity" and "contentment". When you understand consciousness, you will know that what Lao Zi said is correct. To correctly understand the Dao Morality Scripture (Tao Te Ching), it is recommended that you first understand the basic principles of consciousness. The universe was created by Dao, and the theories established based on Dao must be able to explain all basic phenomena of the universe. This book proves that Dao is the most perfect spiritual body in the universe; therefore, the theory established based on Dao will definitely be able to guide mankind to establish a perfect world. At present, problems faced in the fields of consciousness, life science, physics and other fields need to be solved by Dao theory; various problems faced by human society also need to be solved by Dao theory. Dao theory is the most basic theory that everyone should understand: If you want to understand the Origin of universe and understand why the universe is produced from emptiness, I recommend the Dao Theory to you. If you want to understand consciousness, soul and life, I recommend the Dao Theory to you. If you want to know what the correct beliefs and codes of conduct are, I recommend the Dao Theory to you. If you are a politician or public official and want to find the correct theory of establishing a country, I recommend the Dao Theory to you. If you are a student or researcher of philosophy, social science, natural science or religion, I recommend the Dao Theory to you. …… This book is available in two editions: the popular edition and the physical edition. The popular edition contains spiritual physics, omits general physics, and reduces 178 pages. The popular edition is suitable for readers majoring in liberal arts, and readers with middle school and primary school education. The cover of the popular edition is yellow, and the cover of the physics edition is blue. This e-book is a popular edition. There are many diagrams and formulas in the book, so it is a PDF e-book.

Download or read book Our Changing Views of Photons written by Bruce W. Shore and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-09-11 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in technology often rely on a world of photons as the basic units of light. Increasingly one reads of photons as essential to enterprises in Photonics and Quantum Technology, with career and investment opportunities. Notions of photons have evolved from the energy-packet crowds of Planck and Einstein, the later field modes of Dirac, the seeming conflict of wave and particle photons, to the ubiquitous laser photons of today. Readers who take interest in contemporary technology will benefit from learning what photons are now considered to be, and how our views of photons have changed — in learning about the various operational definitions that have been used for photons and their association with a variety of quantum-state manipulations that include Quantum Information, astronomical sources and crowds of photons, the boxed fields of Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics and single photons on demand, the photons of Feynman and Glauber, and the photon constituents of the Standard Model of Particle Physics. The narrative points to contemporary photons as causers of change to atoms, as carriers of messages, and as subject to controllable creation and alteration — a considerable diversity of photons, not just one kind. Our Changing Views of Photons: A Tutorial Memoir presents those general topics as a memoir of the author's involvement with physics and the photons of theoretical Quantum Optics, written conversationally for readers with no assumed prior exposure to science. It offers lay readers a glimpse of scientific discovery — of how ideas become practical, as a small scientific community reconsiders its assumptions and offers the theoretical ideas that are then developed, revised, and adopted into technology for daily use. For readers who want a more detailed understanding of the theory, three substantial appendices provide tutorials that, assuming no prior familiarity, proceed from a very elementary start to basics of discrete states and abstract vector spaces; Lie groups; notions of quantum theory and the Schrödinger equation for quantum-state manipulation; Maxwell's equations for electromagnetism, with wave modes that become photons, possibly exhibiting quantum entanglement; and the coupling of atoms and fields to create quasiparticles. The appendices can be seen as a companion to traditional textbooks on Quantum Optics.
