Particles and the Universe (Physics in Our World) by Kyle Kirkland (PDF)

Description

Nuclear physics investigates the properties and behavior of the central portion, or nucleus, of the atom. This branch of physics had perhaps the biggest impact on the world in the 20th century because it evolved into the knowledge used to build the most destructive weapons people have ever known. The atomic bombs that ended World War II, and the weapons race that followed, changed the course of history. But applications of nuclear physics have also provided enormous energy for useful purposes, generating about 16 percent of the world’s electricity. Particles and the Universe documents how modern physics formed and how it continues to evolve. Each chapter of this book delves into the observations, theories, and tests of a particular topic, including nuclear physics, quantum mechanics, particle physics, relativity, and cosmology.

⭐I am a fan of this series of books. I read this at my community college along with plenty of other books on physics, but not one of them was more enjoyable than this one. Take the risk and buy this book. I’m sure you’ll like it as much as I did.Here’s the list of the topics covered by chapter.1. Nuclear Physics2. Quantum Mechanics3. Particle Physics4.Relativity5.
