A Mysterious Universe introduces the fundamental laws of quantum mechanics, theory of relativity, and cosmology to a novice in simple language. This concise book deals with deep issues related to the mysteries of modern physics.

Both quantum mechanics and relativity are highly mathematical subjects and are not easily accessible. In 2020, the author wrote a book Quantum Mechanics for Beginners with the aim of introducing the fundamentals of quantum theory to someone with elementary knowledge of physics and algebra. Here he goes one step further and introduces these ideas to someone with no prior knowledge of physics and mathematics. In the first part of the book, topics like the wave-particle duality, the probabilistic nature of the measurement, the possibility of multiple universes, and the nature of reality are discussed. In the second part, Einstein's special and general theories of relativity and their amazing and mind-boggling consequences are presented. The impact of the theory of relativity on cosmology is immense. The big bang model of the universe, black holes, and the current hot topics of dark matter and dark energy are explained and discussed. These fields that may hold the key to many unanswered
questions about the universe are still evolving.

This book is intended for readers, young and old, who would like to understand the incomprehensible laws that govern the universe without any prior background in physics and mathematics.

Recenzijas

Explains deep and profound concepts in a very simple language. A marvelous book! * David M. Lee, Nobel Prize for Physics 1996 * In this amazing book, Zubairy manages to cover a very broad range of material on the laws that define our universe. He explains the conceptual foundations of quantum mechanics, the laws of the special and general theories of relativity, and the developments in the field of cosmology for both experts and novice in a clear and transparent manner. * Dudley Herschbach, Nobel Prize for Chemistry 1986 * A hundred years ago two overarching physical theories-Quantum Mechanics and Relativity-upended our understanding of the world, such that the implications and even meaning of these theories are still controversial. This book presents many of these implications for a lay but interested reader, in a clear and lucid manner. * Bill Unruh FRS, Professor at the University of British Columbia * Quantum mechanics and Einstein's theories of relativity are among the most important achievements of human intellect ever. We discovered what happens inside an atom and a nucleus and it increased our understanding of the evolution of the universe. These ideas are not easily accessible to someone without a background in physics and mathematics. A Mysterious Universe brilliantly brings these laws of nature and their consequences together, explaining deep and profound concepts in very simple language. Covering vast materials, it not only includes the extraordinary laws of quantum mechanics and laws of relativity, but also the astonishing developments in the field of cosmology in such a concise and accessible way. The laws that govern this universe are explained with many simple and understandable examples. It's a marvellous book! * David M. Lee, Nobel Prize for Physics 1996 *

Professor M. Suhail Zubairy is a University Distinguished Professor and the holder of the Munnerlyn-Heep Chair in Quantum Optics at Texas A&M University. He has made many pioneering contributions in the fields of quantum optics and quantum information. He is co-author (with Marlan Scully) of a classic textbook on Quantum Optics and the author of a book Quantum Mechanics for Beginners. Prof. Zubairy has received many honors including the Willis E. Lamb Award for Laser Science and Quantum Optics, Alexander von Humboldt Research Prize for Distinguished Scientists, and the George H. W. Bush Award for Excellence in International Research. He is a Fellow of the Pakistan Academy of Sciences, the American Physical Society, and the Optical Society of America.
