  1. Want to know more about what particle physics is like, told by others other than only me? Our group's Instagram account gives a voice to a very wide group of scientists

    For example, we have measured if there is anything inside quarks. And Andreas Hinzmann, one of the authors, made this nice post about that result instagram.com/p/DW6hU-PjnJK/?i #scicomm #wisskomm #quarks #elementaryparticles

  5. Macroscopic Theories Of Matter And Fields A Thermodynamic Approach ( Advances in Science and Technology in the USSR)

    Advances in Science and Technology in the USSR
    Mathematics and Mechanics Series

    This is a collection of articles by Soviet scientists on current issues of building macroscopic models of matter and fields. Based on thermodynamics concepts the papers develop general variational techniques of modeling material continuous media and fields allowing for their interactions in reversible and irreversible processes. The book is intended for researchers, engi­neers, graduate and postgraduate students interested in the mechanics of continuous media.

    Translated from the Russian by Eugene Yankovsky

  6. Vera Chernogorova – Conversations About The Atomic Nucleus (Eureka Series)

    The book discusses issues related to the study of the atomic nucleus and its structure, nuclear forces, and the components of the nucleus. It also describes the achievements of Soviet scientists in the field of nuclear energy.

    About the Author

    After graduating from the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics at university, Vera Aleksandrovna entered postgraduate studies and later became a research fellow at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in the town of Dubna. For nearly twelve years, she participated in experiments conducted on a particle accelerator — the synchrocyclotron. Vera Aleksandrovna is a co-author of many scientifi c papers on the study of the properties of mu-mesons.

    In recent years, she has published over ten articles in journals such as Znanie — Sila (Knowledge Is Power), Science and Life, Technology for the Youth, and others.

    The topics of these articles include problems in nuclear physics, high-energy physics, astrophysics, controlled thermonuclear fusion, the application of scientific achievements in The human practice, and the future of science. Many of these articles have been reprinted in foreign journals.

    In 1973, our publishing house released her book Mysteries of the Microworld, which discussed some current problems in the physics of elementary particles. Conversations About the Atomic Nucleus is the author’s second book to appear in the Eureka series.
