    The Large Hadron Collider sits deep below ground in Switzerland and France, accelerating protons to near light-speed and smashing them to learn the secrets of the universe. Shannon Fields, senior press relations officer, plays a key role at the CERN research facility in informing the world, in easily understood language, of the great discoveries the giant LHC makes. But there is a looming problem with a new discovery. Soon after the LHC goes to maximum power, an unexpected and inexplicable result occurs; a result that both pleases and baffles those who experience it. People begin to hear the voices of dead friends and relatives. Shannon, her brilliant physicist father, and a trusted security officer strive to unravel the mystery of “The Voices at CERN” before reputations are dashed and the integrity of CERN as a world-leading scientific facility is forever tarnished. Their discovery of the answer to the mystery of the voices focuses world attention on CERN. But the discovery also leads to an immediate threat from an intractable foe; a threat, which if carried out, would destroy the LHC and cause unequaled harm to every major nation in the world. Shannon and the others rush to stop their foe before the unthinkable happens. Join author Franklin Clermont in The Voices at CERN, a science fiction mystery thriller, exploring the newest of scientific research and the deepest of philosophical questions. ungekürzt.

    Around 1900, physicists started to discover particles like electrons, protons, and neutrons, and with these discoveries believed they could predict the internal behavior of the atom. However, once their predictions were compared to the results of experiments in the real world, it became clear that the principles of classical physics and mechanics were far from capable of explaining phenomena on the atomic scale. With this realization came the advent of quantum physics, one of the most important intellectual movements in human history. Today, quantum physics is everywhere: it explains how our computers work, how lasers transmit information across the Internet, and allows scientists to predict accurately the behavior of nearly every particle in nature. Its application continues to be fundamental in the investigation of the most expansive questions related to our world and the universe.  However, while the field and principles of quantum physics are known to have nearly limitless applications, the fundamental reasons why this is the case are far less understood. In Quantum Physics: What Everyone Needs to Know, quantum physicist Michael G. Raymer distills the basic principles of such an abstract field, and addresses the many ways quantum physics is a key factor in today's science and beyond. The book tackles questions as broad as the meaning of quantum entanglement and as specific and timely as why governments worldwide are spending billions of dollars developing quantum technology research. Raymer's list of topics is diverse, and showcases the sheer range of questions and ideas in which quantum physics is involved. From applications like data encryption and quantum computing to principles and concepts like "quantum nonlocality" and Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, Quantum Physics: What Everyone Needs to Know is a wide-reaching introduction to a nearly ubiquitous scientific topic. ungekürzt.

    Proton beam therapy is an emerging technology with promise of revolutionizing the treatment of cancer. While nearly half of all patients diagnosed with cancer in the US receive radiation therapy, the majority is delivered via electron accelerators, where photons are used to irradiate cancerous tissue. Because of the physical properties of photon beams, photons may deposit energy along their entire path length through the body. On the other hand, a proton beam directed at a tumor travels in a straight trajectory towards its target, gives off most of its energy at a defined depth called the Bragg peak, and then stops. While photons often deposit more energy within the healthy tissues of the body than within the cancer itself, protons can deposit most of their cancer-killing energy within the area of the tumor. As a result, in the properly selected patients, proton beam therapy has the ability to improve cure rates by increasing the dose delivered to the tumor and simultaneously reduce side-effects by decreasing the dose to surrounding tissue. The benefits of proton beam therapy in delivering a lethal hit to the target while sparing surrounding normal tissues from radiation are becoming applicable to an increasing number of patients and a growing list of conditions. In this book, the author will guide the reader through existing evidence supporting proton beam therapy for pediatric cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer, brain tumors, spinal tumors, and several other conditions. The book will discuss which conditions are suitable for treatment with proton beam therapy, how the treatment is delivered, and the current data supporting its use.

    This fascinating introduction from quarks to computing covers every element of the quantum world in clear and accessible language. Based from a range of knowledge to illustrate what a fascinating world of quantum physics is, Max points out that it is not only a web of scientific terminology and metaphysical theories but a fact that influences our everyday lives.The first idea that comes to mind when we hear the word quantum physics is Einstein and his theory of relativity. Of reality, it goes without mentioning that Quantum mechanics has far much to come than that. Physics is a great medium of explaining a million different things from heating up a cup of coffee to gravitational pull. The science of physics has no clear limit. It includes issues that are as items as tiny as neutrons as large as the galaxies. This book deals with its smallest side, the branch of quantum physics.Physicists began to discover particles like electrons, protons, and neutrons around 1900, and with these discoveries, they believed they could predict the atom's internal behavior. However, once their predictions were compared with the results of real-world experiments, it became clear that the principles of classical physics and mechanics were far from capable of explaining atomic-scale phenomena. With this discovery came the emergence of quantum mechanics, one of human history's most significant scientific revolutions. Quantum physics is everywhere today: it explains how our computers work, how lasers transmit information over the Internet and enable scientists to predict the behavior of almost every particle in nature accurately. Its implementation remains central to the analysis of the most profound issues about our environment and the cosmos.In this book, you will learn:What quantum physics really isThe law of attraction and quantum physicsPlanckRelativity lawPopular experiment on quantum physicsAnd so ungekürzt.

    Are you intrigued by quantum physics but turned off by the complexities, the mathematics, and the formulas? Did your education in mathematics and physics leave you with more questions than answers? Are you fascinated by the universe and want to know about its basic components? If so, these may be the questions you want answers to:Do you want to learn about the giants of quantum theory, including Max Planck and Albert Einstein? Do you want to get in on the inspiring Bohr-Einstein debates on a “grand unifying theory” to bring together quantum mechanics and general relativity theory?Is it possible to look inside the atom, deep inside protons and neutrons to discover the quarks that give these particles their electromagnetic charge?Is wave-particle duality a real phenomenon? Can light be both a wave and a particle?How about the dark sector - the dark matter and dark energy that make up 95 percent of the universe? Could ghostly neutrinos solve the mystery?Do you want to know about string and superstring theory, and whether strings can unify the four known forces in a unified field theory?What about Schrödinger’s famous cat experiment? Can a particle be in two places at once? Can a cat be both dead and alive?How about the concept of entanglement, with particles interacting at a distance? How do entanglement and superposition make quantum computing possible?Are we alone in our universe, or are there parallel universes “out there” that may have copies of ourselves? Theories on the idea of a multiverse are creative, and maybe close to reality. Or, maybe not.If these questions are your questions, you are in the right place. This audiobook was made to make quantum physics clear and understandable for those who find the study of math and science challenging. Come share in the amazing discoveries that are defining the subatomic world within the vast, expanding universe and everythin ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Eric LaCord.

    Ever wonder about how light moves? What does it mean to study the smallest particles known to man? How does science measure the smallest particles in the world, such as atoms, protons, neutrons and electrons? What is ether and how did it become a source of debate in the scientific community? Studying the smallest particles known to man can be exciting work. This study of the world on the molecular level, particularly matter and energy, is the realm of Quantum Physics. Scientists use mathematical equations to help them explain the behavior of matter and energy within the Universe. If you have a curiosity about the world of Quantum Physics, but thought the science textbooks would be too much to absorb, this book is for you. With an overview of what Quantum Physics is, historical background into the scientists who created many of the theories that make up Quantum Physics, and a look at a few of those theories. Quantum Physics is more than the study of matter and energy, but dives into the behavior of matter and energy on a molecular level. Scientists use the information they gather through experiments, observation and continually more precise measuring tools to explain how the building blocks of our world work together. This book dives into a discussion of wave particle duality and how this theory has continued to mystify scientists even today. Or learn how a particle can appear to go through the wall, versus around it. Using light as an example, this book explains how wave particle duality was discovered, who was able to explain the multiple conflicting observations and finally, what scientists have used this information to create. Learn about Einstein and his disagreements with the scientists of his time over various theories in Quantum Physics. Get a better understanding of how theories within Quantum Physics relate to one another. Receive a basic understanding of the Unified Force Theory and how science is still working to prove this unique all-encompassing theo ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Steve Taylor.

    Never before in human Evolution has there been so many souls on this planet who are in dire need of a miracle. This audiobook was designed to help every individual person find their greatest miracle as well as the society as a whole to come to a miracle that we can all use to save all life on Earth. This is not the run-of-the-mill spiritual mumbo-jumbo of miracle making. We focus on the miracles that are happening all around us, which are taken for granted today and which are all scientifically proven. The last section - "How to Get Your Miracle" will literally blow your mind because it is based on true scientific discoveries of the miracles in this universe that make you go.This is not your typical audiobook. It's designed to be an actual course where students will learn lesson by lesson how to bring real miracles into their lives. The author is a theoretical scientist who was the first to recognize that almost everything in the universe has the property of consciousness. An earlier book - The 4 States of Consciousness - establishes the date when this theory was propounded. Today, the theory is being proven by the recent discovery that some species of Bacteria actually eat and digest their energy from electrons, not from what we would consider to be food. Electrons are their food and they even conduct the energy of electricity throughout their community as electric cables do. Also that electrons and other sub-atomic particles can become "entangled" which means they get very chummy with a partner who they actually "marry" and are never unfaithful for the rest of their lives. Also the discovery of filaments running all throughout the composition of the universe that appear to play the same role as synapses in the brain. And Black Holes appear to act like neurons in the brain. All the rest of the universe is simply thought energy where protons, neutrons, electrons can appear and disappear at will. Who's will? It should be your will. With this ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Mathiesen. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/178239/bk_acx0_178239_sample.mp3.
