La antimateria, el reverso de la materia, es uno de los aspectos más fascinantes de la física de partículas, siendo además la aniquilación materia-antimateria el proceso más energético que existe en el universo. Un objeto de antimateria seria indistinguible, a juzgar por su aspecto, de uno de materia; de hecho, una estrella de antimateria, de existir, brillaria de manera identica que una estrella de materia, emitiendo la misma luz. Vivimos rodeados por antimateria y por las radiaciones resultantes de la aniquilacion de esta contra la materia de su entorno. Por ejemplo, en la superficie terrestre estamos sometidos a una lluvia incesante de particulas, en todas direcciones, tanto de materia como de antimateria, y se estima que un 10 por ciento de la luz visible que nos llega del Sol se debe a la aniquilacion materia-antimateria que tiene lugar en su interior. Ademas, hacemos un uso constante de la antimateria: en los hospitales, como ingrediente esencial de las tecnicas de imagen PET, asi como en la industria y en la investigacion relacionada con ciencia y tecnologia de materiales. En este libro se explica que es la antimateria, como se produce, donde se encuentra, los usos y experimentos que se realizan con la misma, asi como el enigma de su desaparicion en los primeros instantes de existencia del universo.

El nuevo libro de los autores de Einstein para perplejos, Andrés Gomberoff y José Edelstein.En su nuevo libro, Andrés Gomberoff y José Edelstein reúnen un conjunto de veintitrés ensayos que se ofrecen como un muestrario, insuficiente pero necesario, de pequeñas joyas, hitos inverosimiles, momentos estelares que pueblan la construccion de la mas humana de las actividades: la ciencia. Luego del exito de Einstein para perplejos, esta nueva colaboracion pretende celebrar aquellos instantes en los que la exploracion cientifica se dejo llevar por una vision poetica e integradora del cosmos, sea a traves de la serena elegancia de la geometria o del proceloso torrente de la intuicion.

Il chimico, biologo e filosofo Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier (1743-1794) e stato uno dei piu importanti personaggi della storia della scienza (enuncio la prima versione della legge di conservazione della massa) ed e unanimemente riconosciuto come il padre della chimica. A causa del suo ruolo di esattore fiscale, venne considerato coinvolto con la monarchia deposta dalla rivoluzione francese e ghigliottinato.GMTYRileva linguaAfrikaansAlbaneseAmaricoAraboArmenoAzeroBascoBengaleseBielorussoBirmanoBosniacoBulgaroCatalanoCebuanoCecoChichewaCinese sempCinese tradCoreanoCorsoCreolo HaitianoCroatoCurdoDaneseEbraicoEsperantoEstoneFilippinoFinlandeseFranceseFrisoneGaelico scozzeseGalizianoGalleseGeorgianoGiapponeseGiavaneseGrecoGujaratiHausaHawaianoHindiHmongIgboIndonesianoIngleseIrlandeseIslandeseItalianoKannadaKazakoKhmerKirghisoLaoLatinoLettoneLituanoLussemburgheseMacedoneMalayalamMaleseMalgascioMalteseMaoriMarathiMongoloNepaleseNorvegeseOlandesePashtoPersianoPolaccoPortoghesePunjabiRumenoRussoSamoanoSerboSesothoShonaSindhiSingaleseSlovaccoSlovenoSomaloSpagnoloSundaneseSvedeseSwahiliTagikoTailandeseTamilTedescoTeluguTurcoUcrainoUnghereseUrduUsbecoVietnamitaXhosaYiddishYorubaZulu AfrikaansAlbaneseAmaricoAraboArmenoAzeroBascoBengaleseBielorussoBirmanoBosniacoBulgaroCatalanoCebuanoCecoChichewaCinese sempCinese tradCoreanoCorsoCreolo HaitianoCroatoCurdoDaneseEbraicoEsperantoEstoneFilippinoFinlandeseFranceseFrisoneGaelico scozzeseGalizianoGalleseGeorgianoGiapponeseGiavaneseGrecoGujaratiHausaHawaianoHindiHmongIgboIndonesianoIngleseIrlandeseIslandeseItalianoKannadaKazakoKhmerKirghisoLaoLatinoLettoneLituanoLussemburgheseMacedoneMalayalamMaleseMalgascioMalteseMaoriMarathiMongoloNepaleseNorvegeseOlandesePashtoPersianoPolaccoPortoghesePunjabiRumenoRussoSamoanoSerboSesothoShonaSindhiSingaleseSlovaccoSlovenoSomaloSpagnoloSundaneseSvedeseSwahiliTagikoTailandeseTamilTedescoTeluguTurcoUcrainoUnghereseUrduUsbecoVietnamitaXhosaYiddishYorubaZulu La funzione vocale e limitata a 200 caratteriOpzioni : Cronologia : Opinioni : Donate Chiudere

Antropocene non e soltanto una parola negativa ma puo essere un museo che raccoglie la storiadellimpatto dellhomo sul pianeta Terra.È questa lidea che Vittorio Pavoncello offre alle istituzioni che vorranno edificare questa enciclopedia nello spazio, immaginata pero come un luogo in cui si possano anche studiare e prevenire prossime pandemie e cambiamenti climatici.Un museo diffuso per questa nuova forza geologica che e lumanita, luogo dincontro e laboratorio fra scienziati e pubblico.

Entertaining and insightful -- Evening StandardOne of the most important books of the year... Compelling Jamie Bartlett, Literary ReviewTimely -- New Statesman As the world becomes better connected and we grow ever more dependent on technology, the risks to our infrastructure are multiplying. Whether its a hostile state striking the national grid (like Russia did with Ukraine in 2016) or a freak solar storm, our systems have become so interlinked that if one part goes down the rest topple like dominoes.In this groundbreaking book, former government minister Oliver Letwin looks ten years into the future and imagines a UK in which the national grid has collapsed. Reliant on the internet, automated electric cars, voice-over IP, GPS, and the internet of things, law and order would disintegrate. Taking us from high-level government meetings to elderly citizens waiting in vain for their carers, this book is a wake up call for why we should question our unshakeable faith in technology. But its much more than that: Letwin uses his vast experience in government to outline how businesses and government should respond to catastrophic black swan events that seem distant and implausible - until they occur.

Terrific and enthralling New ScientistFifty years ago, in July 1969, Apollo 11 became the first manned mission to land on the Moon, and Neil Armstrong the first man to step on to its surface. He and his crewmates, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins, were the latest men to risk their lives in this extraordinary scientific, engineering and human venture that would come to define the era.In Apollo 11: The Inside Story, David Whitehouse reveals the true drama behind the mission, putting it in the context of the wider space race and telling the story in the words of those who took part based around exclusive interviews with the key players.This enthralling book takes us from the early rocket pioneers to the shock America received from the Soviets launch of the first satellite, Sputnik; from the race to put the first person into space to the iconic Apollo 11 landing and beyond, to the agonising drama of the Apollo 13 disaster and the eventual winding-up of the Apollo program.Here is the story as told by the crew of Apollo 11 and the many others who shared in their monumental endeavour. Astronauts, engineers, politicians, NASA officials, Soviet rivals all tell their own story of a great moment of human achievement.
