Hot Science

The ultimate non-technical guide to the fast-developing world of quantum computing

Clegg Brian: Quantum Computing / B

Quantum Computing

The Transformative Technology of the Qubit Revolution

"An exploration of the transformative ways in which nature has inspired the technological advancement of humankind. Biomimetics literally means emulating biology and in a broader sense the term covers technological advances where the original inspiration came from nature"--

How Lessons from Nature can Transform Technology

Biomimetics

Music is shaped by the science of sound. How can music - an artform - have anything to do with science? Yet there are myriad ways in which the two are intertwined, from the basics of music theory and the design of instruments to hi-fi systems and how the brain processes music. Science writer Andrew May traces the surprising connections between science and music, from the theory of sound waves to the way musicians use mathematical algorithms to create music. The most obvious impact of science on music can be seen in the way electronic technology has revolutionised how we create, record and listen to music. Technology has also provided new insights into the effects that different music has on the brain, to the extent that some algorithms can now predict our reactions with uncanny accuracy, which raises a worrying question: how long will it be before AI can create music on a par with humans?

How Technology has Shaped the Evolution of an Artform

The Science of Music

"Even before Apollo 11 landed on the Moon, private companies were exploiting space via communication satellites - a sector that is seeing exponential growth in the internet age. In human spaceflight, too, commercialisation is making itself felt. Billionaire entrepreneurs Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and Richard Branson have long trumpeted plans to make space travel a possibility for ordinary people and those ideas are inching ever closer to reality. At the same time, other companies plan to mine the Moon for helium-3, or asteroids for precious metals. Science writer Andrew May takes an entertaining, in-depth look at the triumphs and heroic failures of our quixotic quest to commercialise the final frontier"--Publisher's description.

"This comprehensively updated second edition introduces graduate students and researchers to nonequilibrium many-body quantum systems, time-resolved techniques, and ultrafast phenomena in modern science. Covering a rapidly evolving field, the book includes original material and rigorous derivations, insightful discussions and illustrative examples"--

A Modern Introduction

Nonequilibrium Many-Body Theory of Quantum Systems

This cross-disciplinary field utilizes the strange effects of quantum mechanics to enable information processing and computing that would be impossible on traditional 'classical' computers. The field has developed rapidly over the last few years due in part to its tremendous technological potential. The theoretical foundations of the subject are clearly established and good textbooks are available. However, many experimental directions are under investigation and hardly any book describing them is available on the market. Quantum cryptography, for example, has already evolved to marketable devices. Most of the books on quantum information and/or quantum computing address the important aspect of optical implementation only briefly. This book solves that by focusing on all light-based approaches to quantum computing.

Quantum Information Processing with Light

By introducing readers to relativistic quantum field theory, this class-tested textbook delivers a concise and modern course in quantum electrodynamics. Its self-contained nature is enhanced by detailed derivations and introductory materials on quantum mechanics and special relativity. This advanced undergraduate textbook employs the elementary concepts of the Schrödinger equation, Dirac notation, the harmonic oscillator and the hydrogen atom in a clear and up-to-date structure, organized around topics in waves, particles and interactions. The text includes many worked problems and examples, end-of-chapter exercises and summaries, as well as enrichment topics and boxed formulas, derivations and definitions. The author's extensive and award-winning research in lasers and quantum optics, coupled with more than 20 years of teaching experience with the course, well equipped him for this task.

Optical Properties of Semiconducting Nanostructures for Photocatalysis: Fundamentals, Materials Design, and Applications investigates the most important factors in improving the photocatalytic process of nanostructures. The book focuses on the key parameters that define the effective factors in the photocatalytic process by a nanostructured semiconductor: bandgap energy, structural defects, morphology, size, lifetime of the electron-hole pair created in the semiconductor by photon radiation, quantum efficiency of the nanostructured semiconductor, and surface porosity. Photocatalytic materials explored include metal-oxide and metal-chalcogenide based materials, graphene, graphite carbon nitride (g-C3N4) as a metal-free semiconductor, carbon/semiconductor nanocomposites, inorganic/organic nanocomposites, and noble metals to increase the efficiency of photocatalytic properties. This variety of semiconductor materials ensures it will be essential reading for researchers and students in the field of photocatalysis.

Optical Properties of Semiconducting Nanostructures for Photocatalysis

The definitive exploration of one of the most daring and consequential theories of our time, completely revised and updated to reflect the rapid advances in artificial intelligence and virtual reality Are we living in a simulation? MIT computer scientist Rizwan Virk draws from research and concepts from computer science, artificial intelligence, video games, quantum physics, and ancient mystics to explain why we may be living inside a simulated reality like the Matrix.&nbsp; Simulation theory explains some of the biggest mysteries of quantum and relativistic physics, such as quantum indeterminacy, parallel universes, and the integral nature of the speed of light, using information and computation. Virk shows how the evolution of our video games, including virtual reality, augmented reality, artificial intelligence, and quantum computing, will lead us to a technological singularity. We will reach the simulation point, where we can develop all-encompassing virtual worlds like the OASIS in Ready Player One or The Matrix—and in fact we are already likely inside such a simulation. While the idea sounds like science fiction, many scientists, engineers, and professors have given the simulation hypothesis serious consideration, including Elon Musk, Neil deGrasse Tyson, and Nick Bostrom. But the simulation hypothesis is not just a modern idea. Philosophers of all traditions have long contended that we are living in some kind of “illusion” and that there are other realities that we can access with our minds. The Simulation Hypothesis is the definitive book on simulation theory and is now completely updated to reflect the latest developments in artificial intelligence and virtual reality. Whether you are a computer scientist, a fan of science fiction like the Matrix movies, a video game enthusiast, a spiritual seeker, or simply a fan of mind-bending thought experiments, you will never look at the world the same way again.

The Biggest Ideas in the Universe 2

Modern Cosmology, Third Edition provides a detailed introduction to the field of cosmology. Beginning with the smooth, homogeneous universe described by a Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker metric, this trusted resource includes careful treatments of dark energy, big bang nucleosynthesis, recombination, and dark matter. The reader is then introduced to perturbations about an FLRW universe: their evolution with the Einstein-Boltzmann equations, their primordial generation by inflation, and their observational consequences: the acoustic peaks in the CMB; the E/B decomposition in polarization; gravitational lensing of the CMB and large-scale structure; and the BAO standard ruler and redshift-space distortions in galaxy clustering. This revised third edition includes updates such as new sections on gravitational waves, line intensity mapping, and emergent analysis techniques; expanded sections of CMB secondaries; and revised figures and pedagogy. These revisions serve to enhance a comprehensive foundational text, as well as provide users with improvements that are aligned with recent advances in the field, as well as modern focuses in the classroom.
