Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Have you ever looked up at the night sky and wondered where all those stars came from How the Universe Began takes young readers on a journey from the very first moment of time through the birth of stars, galaxies, and everything that exists. In clear, exciting language, this book explains the Big Bang, the Cosmic Microwave Background, dark matter, dark energy, and the James Webb Space Telescope's breathtaking new discoveries. Each chapter includes Fun Facts and Think About It questions that invite curious minds to explore further. A complete glossary of 46 terms makes this book an ideal companion for school projects and independent reading alike.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - When a star dies, it does not simply go dark. It transforms into something the universe has never been able to produce any other way: matter at densities and temperatures and magnetic field strengths so extreme that the physics governing it sits at the frontier of human knowledge. The Sun will leave behind a crystallizing white dwarf the size of Earth. A star ten times more massive will leave a neutron star twenty kilometers across spinning hundreds of times per second. A star twenty times more massive will leave a black hole from which not even light escapes. This book explains all three fates in full.White Dwarfs and Stellar Remnants is a complete account of what stars leave behind, written for adult readers who want the real physics without the simplification. You will understand why electron degeneracy pressure, a quantum mechanical consequence of the Pauli exclusion principle, can support the mass of the Sun inside a sphere the size of Earth regardless of temperature, and why this same pressure fails above the Chandrasekhar limit of 1.44 solar masses and the white dwarf collapses to a neutron star. You will follow Jocelyn Bell's 1967 discovery of pulsars, the brief internal designation of the source as LGM-1 for Little Green Men, and the eventual understanding that pulsars are rotating neutron stars sweeping radio beams across the sky with the precision of atomic clocks. You will learn how the double pulsar J0737-3039 tests general relativity to 0.05 percent accuracy, how magnetar giant flares release more energy in one second than the Sun emits in 150,000 years, and how the 2017 gravitational wave detection of two merging neutron stars produced a kilonova that was observed by more than 70 telescopes simultaneously and showed gold being synthesized in real time. And you will understand how the Type Ia supernova explosions of white dwarfs led to the 1998 discovery of dark energy and the Nobel Prize that followed.Twelve chapters. The complete science of stellar death, from the Sun's future white dwarf through the neutron star pulsars and magnetars to the black holes and the gravitational waves they produce when they merge. Every major type of stellar remnant covered. Every key physical mechanism explained from first principles. Part of the Stars and Galaxies Adult Series.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. What shape is the universe? It sounds like a simple question, but the answer reaches into the deepest corners of mathematics, physics, and observation - and it turns out to be one of the most precisely measured facts in all of science.This book takes you on a complete journey through the geometry of the cosmos. You will learn why the shape of space is not a philosophical abstraction but a physical property with measurable consequences - affecting how light travels, how triangles behave, and how the universe began and will end. Starting from the ancient discovery of non-Euclidean geometry and Einstein's revolutionary insight that space itself can curve in response to matter and energy, the book builds toward the stunning modern measurement: the universe is spatially flat, obeying Euclidean geometry to within a fraction of a percent across billions of light-years.You will discover how the cosmic microwave background - the faint afterglow of the Big Bang - serves as a cosmic ruler, how the acoustic peaks in its temperature map encode the curvature of space, and how the BOOMERANG, WMAP, and Planck satellites turned a theoretical possibility into a precision measurement. You will explore the flatness problem and why inflation, the brief era of exponential expansion in the universe's first moments, provides the most compelling explanation for why space is so extraordinarily flat. And you will venture into the open questions that remain: the topology of the universe, the nature of dark energy, the Hubble tension, and what the geometry of space means in a multiverse.Written for curious adult readers with no background in physics or mathematics, this book makes one of cosmology's greatest achievements fully accessible - and reveals how much wonder still remains in the shape of everything.
