Language:? Simplified Chinese content introduction:

There has always been a fundamental connection between physics and astronomy, which has prompted two top astrophysicists in the world to cooperate to explain the frontier problems of astronomy from the perspective of physics. The discussion of non-mathematical methods makes the difficult frontier topic acceptable to ordinary readers. If you also want to know the latest knowledge of physics and astronomy, this book is your best choice. In addition, the author is an outstanding popular science writer, so it is no wonder that many chapters in the book are written in simple terms and vivid.

The author introduces:

f？ Huo Yier, a famous British astronomer, is the founder of the theory of the steady state of the universe.

Huo Yier 19 15 was born in Bentley, Yorkshire, England. When he was young, Huo Yier had a unique thought and often despised various rules and regulations. After graduating from the local grammar school, Huo Yier entered Emmanuel College of Cambridge University. 1936 studied for a master's degree after graduation, and became a distinguished graduate student of St. John's University from 1939, and obtained a master's degree in the same year. At that time, he had the necessary conditions to get a doctorate, but he never thought about it. After the outbreak of World War II, Huo Yier was enlisted in the Navy Department to develop radar. 1945 Huo Yier was hired as a mathematics lecturer at Cambridge university. 1957 was elected as a member of the Royal Society. From 65438 to 0958, he was a professor of astronomy and experimental philosophy. 1967, Huo Yier founded the Institute of Theoretical Astronomy of Cambridge University and became its first director. From 65438 to 0970, Huo Yier served as the vice president of the Royal Society. The president of the Royal Astronomical Society is from 197 1 to 1973. 1972 was knighted. The following year, after a long-term tense relationship with the university, Huo Yier resigned from all his posts at Cambridge University and became an independent scientist.

Fruit shell? The universe?

Author: (English) Stephen Hawking Translator: Wu?

Publishing House: Hunan Science and Technology Publishing House

Version: February 2002

Special note: this book is printed on colored coated paper in 16 format. brief Introduction of the content

Tell you about our universe and future. ...

Relativity and quantum theory are the greatest scientific achievements of the 20th century. Especially the former, he is a great construction of human wisdom. Therefore, the first chapter of Universe in Shell, A Brief History of Relativity, is mainly about Einstein's life. Quantum theory is a passive product of experimental observation, and its significance is still unclear. In general relativity, space-time is no longer a passive background, but an active participant in the evolution of the universe. The distribution of matter will bend time and space. Now, if we talk about space and time outside the universe and speculate on these concepts, we can only go back to St. Augustine. Newton's view of time and space is illusory, and the only function of illusion is to comfort the weak. ?

Einstein's theory of gravity is to simplify gravity into the curvature of space-time. So can time and space be curved to make people go back to the past and change history? Strict scientific calculations point out that this is impossible. ?

What about the ability to predict the future? Now it seems that it has been restricted at least in three levels. Firstly, the chaotic behavior of dynamic system makes it impossible to realize the certainty in Laplace sense in practice. Second, in quantum mechanics, states are described by wave functions, and Heisenberg's uncertainty principle halved classical determinism. Thirdly, the extraordinary spatio-temporal topology makes the wave function be replaced by density matrix, which introduces randomness in thermodynamic sense. ?

What is the future of the universe? If we admit the universality and infinite power of scientific laws, then no matter how ambitious human beings are, they will be limited by environmental and population problems, and we can't fight these restrictions desperately and foolishly. Humans can only adopt a wise and restrained lifestyle. ?

In the ten years since the first edition of A Brief History of Time came out, relativists, cosmologists and particle physicists have made great progress in searching for The Theory of Everything, the core of the universe. But unlike people's previous expectations, we may no longer have the only expression of a unified theory, just as we can't describe the whole surface of the earth with a map. This so-called M theory unifies supergravity and five string theories in a single theoretical framework. The superstring theory is a convenient approximation of nature in different situations. But the general situation of M theory is not very clear. ?

Our universe is likely to be a four-dimensional film in a high-dimensional space, and our cosmic shell is more magical. The dark matter that has puzzled astrophysicists for many years is probably the gravitational effect of shadow galaxies reaching our galaxy through high-dimensional space, and the close-range effect of gravity deviates from Newton's law. How to express it in a high-dimensional space other than a four-dimensional movie is an interesting problem. But as long as they have the same effect on the membrane world, it is meaningless to distinguish them. ?

A quantum cosmologist is a thorough atheist in believing in the scene out of nothing, an incorrigible positivist in scientific methodology, and a pantheist in indulging in the beauty of the universe and theory. ?

This book may be the first scientific work published simultaneously in more than a dozen languages in the world. ?

book review

This book is a multi-band "photo album" showing the face of the universe. Appreciating these beautiful photos will not only make us sincerely admire all kinds of celestial bodies, but also cause us to think about how they are produced, what substances they are made of and where they are in the universe. Taking this opportunity, while looking at the picture, we spread our imaginary wings and wander in distant planets or clusters. This spiritual journey through time and space inspires us to explore many questions: how these celestial bodies were formed, what is happening there, what their future will be, and so on. Through this book, you can appreciate the essence of astronomy and understand the significance of these cosmic scenes. Every picture has its content-you think about what you see, because the universe shows you an important part of understanding the universe.

Version:? Scanning plate

Publisher:? Hunan science and technology publishing house

Release time:? 65438+July 0997

Region:? continent

Language:? Brief introduction of simplified Chinese content:

Einstein once said that the most incomprehensible thing about the universe is that it is understandable. Is he right? Can the two most accurate and successful theories, quantum field theory and general relativity, be unified in quantum gravity? Stephen Hawking and roger penrose debated this issue. Michael Attiya, dean of Trinity College, Cambridge University and former president of the Royal Society, believes that this is the most important debate in the 20th century after the dispute between Einstein and Bohr.

In a sense, today's debate can be regarded as a continuation of the famous and protracted debate more than 60 years ago. Here Penrose plays the role of Einstein and Hawking plays the role of Bohr. Although the controversial issues are different, as in the past, philosophical views and argumentation skills are intertwined here, generating inspiration like a torrent and flashing the light of human wisdom. ?

Classification:? scientific popularization

Publisher:? Hunan science and technology publishing house

Release time:? 065438+2009 10 month

Region:? continent

Language:? Brief introduction of simplified Chinese content:

Star formation is the basic process of the universe, which makes galaxies visible and makes the evolution of normal matter in the universe regular. Stars melted the original hydrogen and helium produced in the Big Bang into heavier elements. Short-lived massive stars produce strong radiation and die in the catastrophic explosion of supernovae, adjusting the star nebula formed around them; At the same time, planets have formed around low-mass stars, providing a long-term stable environment for the evolution of life. In order to understand our origin, we must study stars.

The Birth of Stars and Planets not only contains a lot of beautiful pictures and the latest information, but also introduces the new progress in the formation of stars and planets. The book discusses the generation of isolated stars in dark nebulae, the formation of clusters and nebulae, the "ecology" of interstellar gas and dust, and the violent starbursts that may produce black holes, and links the evolution of galaxies with the origin of life on earth.

In the past, black holes were considered as the most destructive force in nature. Now, with a series of amazing discoveries, the position of supermassive black holes in the list of celestial bodies has changed greatly. Astronomy is revealing the important role of such celestial bodies in the early structural formation of the universe: it gave birth to the explosive formation of stars, planets and even life. They may have contributed half of all the radiation generated after the Big Bang, of which 200 million were hidden in the wide field of vision of the Hubble Space Telescope. What is the significance of these great disturbances to the space-time structure of our origin and ultimate destiny? Fulvio Melia conveyed charming answers to the above questions in a beautiful style and straightforward way.

Region:? continent

Language:? Brief introduction of simplified Chinese content:

This book tells the story of how a group of American scientists started "Science in 2 1 century" and gives a simple description of the complex scientific system that is forming. Introduced the "New Enlightenment". The story is that scientists in some different fields in the United States can't stand the ideological shackles of linearity and reduction that have dominated science since Newton. They found in their respective fields that the world is an interrelated and evolving world, which is not nonlinear and cannot be clearly explained by existing science. They believe that there is not only chaos in this world, but also structure and order. They gradually gathered their new discoveries and new ideas to form a new understanding of the whole nature and human society.

Chinese name:? Black holes and time warping

Author:? Kip Thorne:? Li Yong Book Company

Classification:? scientific popularization

Publisher:? Hunan science and technology publishing house

Release time:? April 2000

Region:? continent

Language:? Brief introduction of simplified Chinese content:

This book is about our revolution in space and time and its important results, some of which are still unclear. This is also a fascinating story. The author has experienced the struggle and success in understanding black holes, which may be the most mysterious thing in the universe. 19 15 years, Einstein put forward a theory that combines time and space into one thing, which is called "time and space". It is not straight, but bent by the matter and energy in it. In our neighborhood, time and space are almost straight, and there will be no difference caused by curvature under normal circumstances. But further away in the universe, some results of space-time bending are more surprising than Einstein knew. Therefore, stars may collapse under their own action, bend the surrounding space and separate themselves from the rest of the universe. How to prove this result and discover the strange nature of black hole collapse in space is the theme of this book.
