Description

Quanta are the smallest particles that form the foundation of everything, and the cosmos is filled with billions of stars and galaxies that keep expanding endlessly. The existence of life across the vast expanses of the universe is closely tied to interactions at the level of quarks. The physicists—authors of this book—discuss the most fundamental scientific questions: the origin of matter in the universe, the eternity of matter, the secrets of chemical processes in space, the reasons stars explode when they die, and what the nature of the “theory of everything” is.

Together with the authors, we explore the past and future of the universe through the lens of quantum physics, and the book’s illustrations make these complex topics easier to understand.
