A Brief History of Time for the 21st CenturyAt the heart of our galaxy lies a monster so deadly, not even light can escape its grasp. Its secrets lie waiting to be discovered. It’s time to explore our universe’s most mysterious inhabitantsBlack HolesAt the heart of the Milky Way lies a supermassive black hole 4 million times more massive than our Sun. A place where space and time are so warped that light is trapped if it ventures within 12 million k...

The Quantum Universe brings together two authors on a brilliantly ambitious mission to show that everyone can understand the deepest questions of science.But just what is quantum physics? How does it help us understand the world? Where does it leave Newton and Einstein? And why, above all, can we be sure that the theory is good?The bizarre behaviour of the atoms and energy that make up the universe has led to some very woolly pronouncements on the nature of all int...

The international bestseller: an introduction to the theory of relativity by the eminent physicists Brian Cox and Jeff ForshawWhat does E=mc2 actually mean? Dr. Brian Cox and Professor Jeff Forshaw go on a journey to the frontier of twenty-first century science to unpack Einstein's famous equation. Explaining and simplifying notions of energy, mass, and light-while exploding commonly held misconceptions-they demonstrate how the structure of nature itself is containe...

只用畢氏定理，也能讀懂相對論！◎了解愛因斯坦最大發現的入門書愛因斯坦於1905年提出的公式E=mc²，揭示了能量（E）與質量（m）可以相互轉換，然而，為什麼能量等於質量乘以光速（c）的平方？背後蘊藏的物理原理如何奠定了近代物理學的基石，又如何影響我們對宇宙的理解？推導愛因斯坦的公式，只需要畢氏定理物理學家考克斯與福肖從時間與空間的定義開始，一步一步帶我們建構愛因斯坦想像中的宇宙，了解光速為什麼會成為「宇宙速限」。接著，他們用簡單的圖表重新演繹愛因斯坦的狹義相對論，並只用畢氏定理（a2 + b2 = c2）推導出E=mc²。了解質能互換，然後呢？狹義相對論與質能互換公式為近代物理學打下基礎，不論是微觀粒子物理與宏觀宇宙結構，都看得到相對論的影子。從微觀而言，「物質為何會有質量？」這個問題可能得從希格斯粒子上尋求答案，而大型強子對撞機的研究很有可能會提供那個關鍵線索。在巨觀尺度下，愛因斯坦後續推出的廣義相對論說明重力是由時空彎曲引起的，讓我們更能夠理解天體運行，也成為宇宙學的基礎假設。
