Beskrivelse

For the ten years of the Solvay Congress from 1926 to 1935, Albert Einstein, Werner Heisenberg, and Neils Bohr argued about the new laws of quantum physics. Yet in 1942, Werner Heisenberg as a card carrying member of the Nazi party was asked to meet with Albert Speer, the head of the SS secret police for Adolph Hitler. He was asked what it would take to make a nuclear bomb. Heisenberg replied that the potential human resources would require 1200 men and much time. His understanding of the response was that Hitler could not spare the human resources. Besides, if Heisenberg were in charge, they might produce nuclear fission material, but they would be nowhere close to a bomb. Albert Einstein, a pacifist and a Jew, left Germany in 1935 and eventually became a United States citizen in 1940. He wrote to President Franklin Roosevelt in 1939, that German scientists had the capability of building a nuclear bomb. This impetus spurred Roosevelt to begin the Manhattan Project and develop the atomic bomb. The aftermath of these debates caused the most famous living scientists to be on the opposite side of the world fence. One was on the side of saving the world and the other was on the side of destroying the world. Besides their origins, could it be possible that their different humanitarian views were affected by their science and ultimately by the debates? To quote Albert Einstein, "If we decide that the universe is neither friendly nor unfriendly and that God essentially 'is playing dice with the universe', then we are simply victims of the random toss and our lives have no real purpose or meaning. "This book describes the scientific arguments for order and disorder in the Universe. This includes the four theories of creation, 2020 Nobel Prize winner for physics Roger Penrose's singularity topology inside a black hole, fractal dimension and the Hurst exponent, the harmony of the solar system planets, and telegrapher's thermodynamics.
