Book excerpt: A broken pilot falls for a man who might be a walking weapon. They may need to save far more than each other. A mysterious distress call draws the crew of the Hermes to what appears to be an empty, drifting ship. Empty, except for the gore-spattered corridors and one survivor locked in a holding cell. Drawn to the traumatized man, the crew's comm officer, Isaac Ozawa, makes Turk his responsibility, offering him kindness and warmth after the horror he experienced. Turk longs for Isaac, a desperate, hopeless ache he'll always carry with him. But Turk's brain harbors dangerous secrets, a military experiment gone wrong. When an amoral, power-hungry admiral kidnaps Isaac to convince Turk to become the weapon he's hungered for, it will take Turk's strength, the Hermes crew's ingenuity, the enigmatic Drak'tar's help, and Isaac's own stubborn will to save them.

Book excerpt: IT'S TAKEN ME 20 YEARS FROM MY CHILDHOOD TO FINALLY WRITE THIS BOOK, WHICH SPECULATIVELY PREDICTS THE ORIGIN OF AN IMMENSE NUMBER OF PARTICLES AND THE EVOLUTION OF THE COSMOS. In the universe, there is always curiosity about how our place within it came to be. Numerous inexplicable occurrences take place in the universe. This book provides explanations for the numerous unanswered phenomena in the universe through the God's Place theory. How did the formation of atoms from particles occur? The evolution of stars depends on which process? In the universe, which come into existence first, either black holes or galaxies? How do astronomical objects like supernovas, black holes, and neutron stars differ from one another? How does the merging of astronomical objects take place? How were the planets arranged in our solar system? From where did the primordial magnetic field and cosmic infrared background originate in the universe? What is the future behavior of our solar system and universe? All the questions mentioned above about the universe have been discussed in this book.

Download or read book Gravity s Fatal Attraction written by Mitchell Begelman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-12-21 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richly illustrated with the images from observatories on the ground and in space, and computer simulations, this book shows how black holes were discovered, and discusses our current understanding of their role in cosmic evolution. This second edition covers new discoveries made in the past decade, including definitive proof of a black hole at the center of the Milky Way, evidence that the expansion of the Universe is accelerating, and the new appreciation of the connection between black holes and galaxy formation. There are entirely new chapters on gamma-ray bursts and cosmic feedback. Begelman and Rees blend theoretical arguments with observational results to demonstrate how both approaches contributed to this subject. Clear illustrations and photographs reveal the strange and amazing workings of our universe. The engaging style makes this book suitable for introductory undergraduate courses, amateur astronomers, and all readers interested in astronomy and physics.

This book was released on 2010-08-09 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fi eld of cosmology may be on the verge of a signifi cant paradigm shift, as there is an increasing awareness that scientists have missed something fundamental as they carry on in their quest for a theory of everything and a theory that unites general relativity with quantum mechanics. Knight proposes a new theory suggesting that the space-time geometry possesses a complex hierarchical structure that comprises twelve dimensionsnine space dimensions and three time. Furthermore, this structure is divided into three strata, each of which has its own four-dimensional structure and stratum-specifi c fundamental forces and parameterswith variations in the gravitational constant G, the speed of light c, and the Planck constant. Through the pages of this work, this theory is further explained.

Download or read book The Lightness of Being written by Frank Wilczek and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2009-03-25 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Nobel-prize winning physicist takes on the essential question: what are we made of? Our understanding of nature's deepest reality has changed radically, but almost without our noticing, over the past twenty-five years. Transcending the clash of older ideas about matter and space, acclaimed physicist Frank Wilczek explains a remarkable new discovery: matter is built from almost weightless units, and pure energy is the ultimate source of mass. He calls it "The Lightness of Being." Space is no mere container, empty and passive. It is a dynamic Grid-a modern ether- and its spontaneous activity creates and destroys particles. This new understanding of mass explains the puzzling feebleness of gravity, and a gorgeous unification of all the forces comes sharply into focus.The Lightness of Being is the first book to explore the implications of these revolutionary ideas about mass, energy, and the nature of "empty space." In it, Wilczek masterfully presents new perspectives on our incredible universe and envisions a new golden age of fundamental physics.

Download or read book Gravity Interpretation written by Wolfgang Jacoby and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-02-01 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gravity interpretation involves inversion of data into models, but it is more. Gravity interpretation is used in a “holistic” sense going beyond “inversion”. Inversion is like optimization within certain a priori assumptions, i.e., all anticipated models lie in a limited domain of the a priori errors. No source should exist outside the anticipated model volume, but that is never literally true. Interpretation goes beyond by taking “outside” possibilities into account in the widest sense. Any neglected possibility carries the danger of seriously affecting the interpretation. Gravity interpretation pertains to wider questions such as the shape of the Earth, the nature of the continental and oceanic crust, isostasy, forces and stresses, geol- ical structure, nding useful resources, climate change, etc. Interpretation is often used synonymously with modelling and inversion of observations toward models. Interpretation places the inversion results into the wider geological or economic context and into the framework of science and humanity. Models play a central role in science. They are images of phenomena of the physical world, for example, scale images or metaphors, enabling the human mind to describe observations and re- tionships by abstract mathematical means. Models served orientation and survival in a complex, partly invisible physical and social environment.
