Albert Einstein's theories on light, gravity and relativity
From the foreword by Dr. rer. pol. Erik Kolek The light quantum hypothesis leads to new assumptions about the radiation of black bodies. The principle of relativity has a connection with the constancy of the speed of light. Energy is not directly dependent on mass. Energy-rich mass points have inertia and gravity. The deflection of the light rays is related to their speed c and the gravitational constant k as well as the mass M of the body past which the light passes. The local time l depends on the mass M and the speed of light c in a space-time domain.
Metal Nanoparticles-Based Nanoplatforms for Colorimetric Sensing
Non-Self-Adjoint Schr繹dinger Operator with a Periodic Potential
This book offers a comprehensive exploration of spectral theory for non-self-adjoint differential operators with complex-valued periodic coefficients, addressing one of the most challenging problems in mathematical physics and quantum mechanics: constructing spectral expansions in the absence of a general spectral theorem. It examines scalar and vector Schr繹dinger operators, including those with PT-symmetric periodic optical potentials, and extends these methodologies to higher-order operators with periodic matrix coefficients. The second edition significantly expands upon the first by introducing two new chapters that provide a complete description of the spectral theory of non-self-adjoint differential operators with periodic coefficients. The first of these new chapters focuses on the vector case, offering a detailed analysis of the spectral theory of non-self-adjoint Schr繹dinger operators with periodic matrix potentials. It thoroughly examines eigenvalues, eigenfunctions, and spectral expansions for systems of one-dimensional Schr繹dinger operators. The second chapter develops a comprehensive spectral theory for all ordinary differential operators, including higher-order and vector cases, with periodic coefficients. It also includes a complete classification of the spectrum for PT-symmetric periodic differential operators, making this edition the most comprehensive treatment of these topics to date. The book begins with foundational topics, including spectral theory for Schr繹dinger operators with complex-valued periodic potentials, and systematically advances to specialized cases such as the Mathieu-Schr繹dinger operator and PT-symmetric periodic systems. By progressively increasing the complexity, it provides a unified and accessible framework for students and researchers. The approaches developed here open new horizons for spectral analysis, particularly in the context of optics, quantum mechanics, and mathematical physics.
Enhancing Citizens' Role in Public Safety
The COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine emphasize the need for greater disaster resilience and preparedness. This book investigates how these apps can enhance crisis awareness and citizen involvement in disaster prevention and response. By examining user perspectives and the impact of crisis experiences, the book explores how to increase the adoption and effectiveness of warning apps. The research uses qualitative and quantitative methods, including surveys and design interventions, to reveal current usage, changes over time and desired features. It shows that while citizens find warning apps helpful, more safety-related features and two-way communication could increase their appeal. Additionally, the integration of preparedness features into these apps can increase their perceived usefulness, though challenges remain in addressing user expectations and design preferences across different crises and cultural contexts.

Fluid Mechanics at Interfaces 3
Interfaces are present in most fluid mechanics problems. They not only denote phase separations and boundary conditions, but also thin flames and discontinuity waves. Fluid Mechanics at Interfaces 3 firstly positions models as relative to applications (i.e. pollution, drops for propulsion, wind power, etc.), then emphasizes the importance of social consequences. Chapter 1 examines the questions raised by simulation of a pollutant's concentration degradation in permanent 2D flow using the finite element method. Chapter 2 considers an approximate analytical solution for mixed injection regimes, which acts on drop vaporization frequency response. Chapter 3 examines the case of an incompressible external flow of uniform speed at infinity, leading the liquid in the drop by friction. Chapter 4 gives a summary of combustion-based weapons and their effects. Chapter 5 then looks at the shifting interface in spacetime. Chapter 6 limits itself to two key concepts: the first is that of capillary interfaces where surface tension is present even at equilibrium, the second is that of thin flames which only exist outside of equilibrium, but which can be considered as generalized interfaces. Chapter 7 challenges the idea of constituents of matter, leading to radically transforming chemistry. Chapter 8 is concerned by the modeling of partial wetting by macroscopic approach in discrete mechanics. Chapter 9 states a numerical method of finished differences, making it possible to calculate the variables describing an average flow. Chapter 10 considers circulation in the vessels of the human body. Chapter 11 contributes by generalizing the classical series solution for initial boundary value problems of the 1D reaction-diffusion equations on any finite interval of the real line.

Non-standard Cosmology
Modern cosmology is grounded in Einstein's general theory of relativity. However, various discrepancies arise when comparing actual cosmological observation data. The acceleration of the expansion of the universe, the existence of super distant galaxies, the introduction of dark energy, etc., and the inconsistency with the theory of the rotational speed of galactic disks, etc., are just a few of the many inconsistencies that have emerged.This is evidence that the theory of relativity is built on a false premise. In this book, we would like to present a picture of the universe that is not based on the theory of relativity.This book tries to solve the riddle of the universe and gives new insight to the cosmology.
