quantum theory

Leadership and the New Sciences is the bestselling, most acclaimed, and most influential guide to applying the new science to organizations of all types, and to our personal lives. Wheatley describes how the new science radically alters our understanding of the world, and how it can teach us to live and work together in these chaotic times. It will teach you how to move with greater certainty and easier grace into the new forms of organizations and communities that are taking shape.

Explains the theory and associated mathematics of quantum mechanics, discussing topics ranging from uncertainty and time dependence to particle and wave states.

Presents an exploration of the subatomic world, explaining how the twentieth-century theories of quantum mechanics--the physics of the very small, and special relativity--the physics of the very fast, have changed the scientific understanding of matter.

Ben Warner is invited to join a "science camp" led by a quantum physicist Dr. Madeleine Hughes, and with his new friend Peter he discovers the secret art of Actuation--the ability to change reality by imagining it differently--but he.

A guide to relativity and quantum mechanics that provides information on relativity and general relativity, the concepts and interpretation of quantum mechanics, and formulas and applications for each, and profiles physicists in this field.

Traces the history of physics from the early Greeks through the theories of modern day scientists.

A book for non-physicists that explains quantum mechanics and relativity theory.

An exploration of the seemingly telepathic communication between two separated particles--one of the fundamental concepts of quantum physics. In 1935, Einstein showed that quantum mechanics predicted such a correlation, which he dubbed "spooky action at a distance." That same year, Erwin Schr?odinger christened this correlation "entanglement." Yet its existence wasn't firmly established until 1964, in a groundbreaking paper by Irish physicist John Bell. What happened during those years and since to refine the understanding of this phenomenon is the story told here. Drawing on papers, letters, and memoirs, author Gilder humanizes and dramatizes the story by employing their own words in imagined face-to-face dialogues. We see Bohr and Einstein clashing, and Heisenberg and Pauli deciding which mysteries to pursue. We see Schr?odinger and Louis de Broglie pave the way for Bell, whose work is here given a long-overdue revisiting. And we see Richard Feynman challenging his contemporaries to make something of this entanglement.--From publisher description.
