Physics

Tief unter unseren Füßen – was ist da eigentlich los? Um diese intimsten Geheimnisse unseres Heimatplaneten herauszufinden, brauchen wir natürlich wieder Physik.

We have always looked up at the sky and wondered. The desire to explore and understand what lies beyond us is at the heart of scientific discovery. Ever since the ancient Babylonians tracked celestial objects on clay tablets, the search for meaning in an infinitely vast universe has been a...

Of the codified laws of nature, only one inscribes a direction to time: the dreaded second law of thermodynamics, which declares that the disorder of a closed system tends to increase as time passes. New shoes eventually scuff, our bodies weaken and die. Yet our senses tell us that miraculous order constantly emerges, too: children grow and learn; spontaneous patterns manifest in murmurations of starlings. Can it be true that the laws of our universe mandate only dissolution?

Buddha and the Quantum offers a bold yet approachable way to understand modern physics through lived experience. While many books draw parallels between science and Eastern thought, this one flips the equation—showing how space, time, and the physical world itself arise within consciousness. Just as planetary motion only makes sense when the sun is placed at the center, modern physics becomes clearer when awareness takes center stage.

Why do economists, engineers, epidemiologists, and AI researchers all discover that they need to track momentum in their models? Why do first-order predictions consistently fail at turning points? Why does the same corrective technique keep being reinvented across unrelated fields? The answer lies in a structural principle hidden in plain sight for three centuries. Newton's laws of motion are not merely descriptions of physical matter. They are the necessary mathematical form for any system where multiple influences combine and act on trends rather than levels directly.

En octubre de 1927, veintinueve de los científicos más brillantes del mundo se reunieron en el Quinto Congreso Solvay. Diecisiete de ellos acabarían recibiendo el premio Nobel. Aquel encuentro, inmortalizado en una célebre fotografía, marcó el comienzo de una revolución intelectual sin precedentes. Allí, figuras como Marie Curie, Niels Bohr, Werner Heisenberg, Erwin Schrödinger o Albert Einstein debatieron los fundamentos de la recién nacida teoría cuántica, una forma radicalmente nueva de entender la naturaleza.

This book explores nanotechnology—a revolutionary scientific frontier that is reshaping our understanding of what it means to manipulate matter at the atomic and molecular levels. Delving into the fundamental principles of nanoscale processes, the author reveals how these invisible mechanisms are driving breakthroughs in medicine, energy, manufacturing, and even space exploration.

Whether you’re a student, professional, or simply someone fascinated by how the universe works, Quantum Mechanics in Simple English will give you the foundation you need to understand the principles, concepts, and real-world impact of quantum mechanics.

This book offers a rigorous and deliberately restrained examination of one of the most ambitious ideas in contemporary theoretical physics: the holographic principle. Rather than celebrating or rejecting holography, it subjects its claims to disciplined evaluation, asking not whether the mathematics works, but what, if anything, it entitles us to say about reality itself. The analysis proceeds from a simple but often neglected distinction between three levels of theoretical success: mathematical consistency, explanatory power, and ontological entitlement.

En la Italia del siglo XVII, Galileo Galilei transforma un mundo construido sobre la autoridad en otro sostenido por la evidencia. Entre aulas, cortes y observatorios improvisados, su vida recorre el arco completo del genio humano: curiosidad radical, ambición, hallazgos que cambian la idea misma de “cielo” y un conflicto inevitable con el poder.
