Energy Physics

The laws of thermodynamics drive everything that happens in the universe. From the sudden expansion of a cloud of gas to the cooling of hot metal - everything is moved or restrained by four simple laws. This powerful and compact introduction explains what these four laws are and how they work, using accessible language and virtually no mathematics.

Over the past few decades, a handful of scientists have been racing to explain a disturbing aspect of our universe: only four percent of it consists of the matter that makes up you, me, our books, and every star and planet. The rest is completely unknown. Richard Panek tells the dramatic story of the quest to find this “dark” matter and an even more bizarre substance called “dark energy”. This is perhaps the greatest mystery in all of science, and solving it will bring fame, funding, and certainly a Nobel Prize.

A “meticulously researched” (The New York Times Book Review) examination of energy transitions over time and an exploration of the current challenges presented by global warming, a surging world population, and renewable energy—from Pulitzer Prize- and National Book Award-winning author...

In the late 1800s and early 1900s, our understanding of the elements that create the matter of the universe changed radically with the Periodic Table of Elements and the discovery of the proton. Before these discoveries, it was believed that atomic elements were unique. Gold, silver, iron and dozens of other elements are now attributed to a unique number of protons in an atomic nucleus. After its simplification, this newfound understanding of the atom led to significant advancements in new materials, electronics and eventually nuclear energy. By the late 1900s and early 2000s, a new problem...

Does matter feel? Do flowers enjoy blooming? Do springs dislike being stretched? Modern science denies that matter feels anything at all, let alone pleasure or pain. But modern science is yet to explain how anything can feel—even us. In What Matter Feels, Robert Pepperell PhD—a UK-based professor of interdisciplinary research—presents an innovative scientific framework that explores how consciousness might emerge from material systems. By rethinking foundational principles of physics, Pepperell proposes that psychological properties of matter can be measured with the same accuracy as ...

All the matter and light we can see in the universe makes up a trivial five per cent of everything. The rest is hidden. This could be the biggest puzzle that science has ever faced. Since the 1970s, astronomers have been aware that galaxies have far too little matter in them to account for the way they spin around: they should fly apart, but something concealed holds them together. That ’something' is dark matter - invisible material in five times the quantity of the familiar stuff of stars and planets.

This book invites you on a journey through the most misunderstood concept in all of science — the vacuum. From the earliest philosophers terrified of emptiness to the modern physicists who discovered that “nothing” is a swirling ocean of energy and possibility, this is the story of how the void became the foundation of everything. We begin with the ancient debates about ether and the first laboratory vacuums of the Renaissance, then move through Einstein’s curved spacetime, quantum field theory’s restless vacuum, and the mysterious Higgs field that gives matter its mass.
