  • Universe

    A Guide to Everything

    de Helge Kragh ...
    The physical universe is a most peculiar concept, not only different from the objects it contains but also from space itself. Cosmology – the science that seeks to explain it – has always differed from other sciences, drawing on philosophy and even theology. These influences remain, even in today’s data-driven cosmological models. This accessible and far-reaching book traces the development of ... Leer más

  • Quantum Generations

    A History of Physics in the Twentieth Century

    de Helge Kragh ...
    At the end of the nineteenth century, some physicists believed that the basic principles underlying their subject were already known, and that physics in the future would only consist of filling in the details. They could hardly have been more wrong. The past century has seen the rise of quantum mechanics, relativity, cosmology, particle physics, and solid-state physics, among other fields. These ...

  • Cosmology and Controversy

    The Historical Development of Two Theories of the Universe

    de Helge Kragh ...
    For over three millennia, most people could understand the universe only in terms of myth, religion, and philosophy. Between 1920 and 1970, cosmology transformed into a branch of physics. With this remarkably rapid change came a theory that would finally lend empirical support to many long-held beliefs about the origins and development of the entire universe: the theory of the big bang. In this ... Leer más

  • From Transuranic to Superheavy Elements

    A Story of Dispute and Creation

    de Helge Kragh ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The story of superheavy elements - those at the very end of the periodic table - is not well known outside the community of heavy-ion physicists and nuclear chemists. But it is a most interesting story which deserves to be known also to historians, philosophers, and sociologists of science and indeed to the general public. This is what the present work aims at. It tells the story or rather parts ... Leer más

  • Early Responses to the Periodic System

    Edición de Masanori Kaji, Helge Kragh, Gabor Pallo ...
    The reception of the periodic system of elements has received little attention among scientists and historians alike. While many historians have studied Mendeleev's discovery of the periodic system, few have analyzed the ways in which the scientific community perceived and employed it. American historian of science Stephen G. Brush concluded that the periodic law had been generally accepted in the ... Leer más

  • Niels Bohr and the Quantum Atom

    The Bohr Model of Atomic Structure 1913-1925

    de Helge Kragh ...
    Niels Bohr and the Quantum Atom is the first book that focuses in detail on the birth and development of Bohr's atomic theory and gives a comprehensive picture of it. At the same time it offers new insight into Bohr's peculiar way of thinking, what Einstein once called his 'unique instinct and tact'.

  • Controversy and Consensus: Nuclear Beta Decay 1911–1934

    de Carsten Jensen ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    To all four of us, Carsten was the best possible friend and colleague. To Finn, he was a fellow student in the history of science for several years at the Niels Bohr Institute; to Relge, he was a welcome resource for personal and intellectual interac tion in an otherwise less than fertile environment for the history of science; Roger was Carsten's friend and advisor, not least in the development ...

  • Varying Gravity

    Dirac’s Legacy in Cosmology and Geophysics

    de Helge Kragh ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    The main focus of this book is on the interconnection of two unorthodox scientific ideas, the varying-gravity hypothesis and the expanding-earth hypothesis. As such, it provides a fascinating insight into a nearly forgotten chapter in both the history of cosmology and the history of the earth sciences.The hypothesis that the force of gravity decreases over cosmic time was first proposed by Paul ...
