This Ph.D. thesis is a search for physics beyond the standard model (SM) of particle physics, which successfully describes the interactions and properties of all known elementary particles. However, no particle exists in the SM that can account for the dark matter, which makes up about one quarter...

Hoe begrijpen we de tijd? Als kind ervaren we de minuten en dagen van ons leven heel anders dan als volwassene; en de natuurkundigen van de achttiende eeuw zagen tijd op een radicaal andere manier dan hun hedendaagse collega's. De moderne natuurkundige visie op tijd druist namelijk in tegen alle 'gezond...

Some believe that the difference in the way galaxies and solar systems appear to rotate is evidence that dark matter exists.  This paper does not deny the existence of dark matter.  This paper explains why solar systems and galaxies appear to obey different laws of motion. Kepler’s Three Laws...

Six official NASA scientific reports are presented in this comprehensive book on the problems and hazards posed by moon dust to lunar explorers, based on the lessons learned by the Apollo astronauts. These documents have been converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction. Contents...

This official NASA history document - converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction - provides unique information about NASA's biomedicine program in the Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, and Skylab era, with fascinating insights into medical issues faced by the early astronauts. Contents:...

This thesis sheds valuable new light on the second-order cosmological perturbation theory, extensively discussing it in the context of cosmic microwave background (CMB) fluctuations. It explores the observational consequences of the second-order vector mode, and addresses magnetic field generation...

Marcel returns to the sheriff's office with the senior Counter-Intelligence agent assigned to the base (sometimes "the man in plain clothes") Captain Sheridan Cavitt.  They escort Brazel back to his ranch to examine the debris field. Brazel takes the 2 military officers out to the...

Eminent Harvard astrophysicist David Layzer offers readers a unified theory of natural order and its origins, from the permanence, stability, and orderliness of sub-atomic particles to the evolution of the human mind. Cosmogenesis provides the first extended account of a controversial theory that...

Bang! Space, time, matter... the Universe was born 13.7 billion years ago. Infinitely small at first, it expanded more rapidly than anyone can contemplate. Brian May, Patrick Moore and Chris Lintott explain how all this came about, from the moment when time and space came into existence, to the formation...

The Abstraction theory is applied in landscaping. A collection of objects may be made to be vast or meagre depending upon the scale of observations. This idea may be developed to unite the worlds of the great vastness of the universe and the minuteness of the sub-atomic realm. Keeping constant a scaling...

Un sottile pennello di luce unisce ogni stella al nostro occhio. Un ponte fisico, fatto di fotoni, attraverso cui transitano tutte le informazioni che giungono a noi dall’universo. Percorrerlo significa sfiorare la trama che tiene insieme, attraverso lo spazio e il tempo, ogni fibra dell’esistente,...

The genesis of the universe elegantly explained in a simple theory based on just six numbers by one of the world's most renowned astrophysicists

This thesis presents the first measurement of charmed D0 meson production relative to the reaction plane in Pb–Pb collisions at the center-of-mass energy per nucleon-nucleon collision of √sNN = 2.76 TeV. It also showcases the measurement of the D0 production in p–Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02...
