This book provides a wide-ranging overview of the accumulation of solar heat in various liquids and demonstrates how using freshwater as a protective layer greatly boosts solar thermal energy efficiency. The author draws on a series of original experiments using different salt solutions and other liquids to demonstrate how solar heat can be captured and stored in a more efficient way. Unlike the irregular and unpredictable nature of other renewable energy sources, the author makes the case that this method can provide a reliable and consistent form of energy. This book will be of great value to researchers and professionals in the fields of solar energy, renewable energy, and energy efficiency. It includes accessible explanations of core concepts and provides fresh insights into capturing and storing solar heat, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the promise of solar energy.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a thorough and engaging exploration of the discovery of non-Euclidean geometry by the Hungarian mathematician János Bolyai, setting his work within the broader context of the history of geometry. The author draws on Bolyai's own writings, including both published and unpublished material, to provide a detailed account of his groundbreaking ideas. The book also examines the influence of Bolyai's father, Wolfgang, on his son's mathematical development, and discusses the reception of Bolyai's work by his contemporaries. Ultimately, the book argues that Bolyai's discovery of non-Euclidean geometry was a major intellectual achievement that reshaped our understanding of the foundations of mathematics.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an analysis of the two equations that describe the phenomenon of spectral analysis, a critical technique used in astronomy. The author begins by describing the groundbreaking work of Kirchhoff and Bunsen, before delving into the two equations that form the basis of the analysis and establishing their relation to Planck's radiation law and the Wien displacement law. The author investigates the dependence of the parameters of the equations on different factors such as temperature and density and provides a theoretical grounding for measuring the temperature of a body from the wavelength of maximum intensity of its radiation, opening up possibilities for non-contact temperature measurements. The text also covers the principles of spectral analysis, establishing its uses in determining the temperature and density of stars as well as the chemical composition of celestial objects, giving insight into their physical nature and evolution.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive survey of the kaleidoscopic world of animal coloration and its surprising role in animal behavior and survival. It explores how and why animals have evolved to mimic other animals, plants, and even inanimate objects in a spectacular array of disguises. The author, an acclaimed zoologist, takes a multidisciplinary approach, blending evolutionary theory, ecology, and natural history to reveal the fascinating reasons behind animal camouflage and mimicry. From the microscopic world of protists to the vast diversity of insects, birds, and mammals, the book uncovers the extraordinary strategies animals have developed to deceive predators, attract mates, and navigate their complex environments. Through captivating storytelling and illuminating scientific insights, this book sheds new light on the vibrant tapestry of life on Earth.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the law of attraction between atoms, positing that the force of attraction is not subject to Newton's law and is far greater than the Newtonian force, only acting at an infinitesimally small distance. The author looks at the history of the study of molecular force and the many differing conclusions reached by scientists. They ultimately determine that the force between atoms is proportional to the seventh power of the distance inversely and not the square of the distance as determined by Newton's law. The author uses the internal evaporation heat of compounds to derive this law and then confirms it in a host of other applications. This book will be of great interest to physicists, chemists and laypeople alike.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book joins the ranks of scholarship that aims to situate the work of Johann Bolyai--a Hungarian mathematician who, living a century before Einstein, published a theory of non-Euclidean geometry that reformulated the relationship between geometry and physical reality. As the author notes, Bolyai's work went largely unnoticed during his lifetime and was eclipsed by the efforts of Gauss, Lobachevsky, and Riemann, who came later. The present volume contains translations of several of Bolyai's key mathematical treatises, along with an illuminating introduction by the author about Bolyai's life and place in the development of non-Euclidean geometry. The work is a welcome addition to the history of mathematics and indispensable to scholars working in the field of non-Euclidean geometry.
