Book Description
«Si un día se encuentran a Albert Einstein en un elevador, huyan...» Un día, Miguel estaba viendo Star Trek cuando, de pronto, se le ocurrió cómo revolucionar la teoría de la relatividad y viajar más rápido que la luz... La anécdota, que parece sacada de The Big Bang Theory, es completamente real. La protagonizó un joven mexicano cuando estudiaba su doctorado en Cardiff. Este libro cuenta aquel momento, pero —más interesante aún— relata la ciencia que hay detrás de esa posibilidad, de aquella teoría de Einstein y de algunos de los postulados más espléndidos de la astrofísica. Surfear el espacio-tiempo también explica las investigaciones que vinieron después: algo incluso más importante que aquella «revelación». De la mano del divulgador Sergio de Régules, Miguel Alcubierre —actualmente uno de los científicos más importantes de Latinoamérica— nos cuenta de su vida y, con ella, la pasión infinita de indagar en las ondas gravitacionales, los agujeros negros y otros enigmas del universo.

Book Description
Predichas hace un siglo de forma asombrosa por Albert Einstein en su Teoría de la relatividad general (publicada en esta colección) y buscadas a tientas y con escepticismo por los científicos desde entonces, las ondas gravitatorias -tenues y escurridizas vibraciones del tejido mismo de la realidad que abren una nueva ventana al cosmos- sólo fueron detectadas por primera vez en 2015 gracias al experimento estadounidense LIGO, reforzado en breve por el detector europeo VIRGO, en el cual Matteo Barsuglia, autor de este libro, desempeña un papel central. Completa y relevante en todos sus aspectos, la obra -merecedora del premio de la revista francesa Ciel et Espace al mejor libro de astronomía de 2020-, relata con concisión y claridad esta singular aventura de la mano de uno de sus principales protagonistas, proporcionando una visión de la vanguardia de la ciencia en la que se entrelazan teoría y tecnología.

Book Description
Irrational mechanics is defined as a futurist science that will eventually open the door to faster than light travel, time travel, psychic engineering, God-like abilities, and the resurrection of the dead. This is not a scientific theory of irrational mechanics, but a narrative sketch that tries to communicate the flavor of what a futurist science of irrational mechanics could be. Irrational mechanics will eventually become the foundation of a new religion, one that is inspired by science instead of revelation, but is still able to offer all the comforts of traditional religion. Yes, the universe is striving toward a purpose, and we are part of that purpose. Yes, the cosmic operating system has the attributes that traditional religions have assigned to their God(s). Yes, you’ll live again after death with your loved ones.

Book Description
This book introduces the modern field of 3+1 numerical relativity. The book has been written in a way as to be as self-contained as possible, and only assumes a basic knowledge of special relativity. Starting from a brief introduction to general relativity, it discusses the different concepts and tools necessary for the fully consistent numerical simulation of relativistic astrophysical systems, with strong and dynamical gravitational fields. Among the topics discussed in detail are the following: the initial data problem, hyperbolic reductions of the field equations, gauge conditions, the evolution of black hole space-times, relativistic hydrodynamics, gravitational wave extraction and numerical methods. There is also a final chapter with examples of some simple numerical space-times. The book is aimed at both graduate students and researchers in physics and astrophysics, and at those interested in relativistic astrophysics.

Book Description
WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE WINNER OF THE MAN BOOKER INTERNATIONAL PRIZE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST FOR TRANSLATED LITERATURE A visionary work of fiction by "A writer on the level of W. G. Sebald" (Annie Proulx) "A magnificent writer." — Svetlana Alexievich, Nobel Prize-winning author of Secondhand Time "A beautifully fragmented look at man's longing for permanence.... Ambitious and complex." — Washington Post From the incomparably original Polish writer Olga Tokarczuk, Flights interweaves reflections on travel with an in-depth exploration of the human body, broaching life, death, motion, and migration. Chopin's heart is carried back to Warsaw in secret by his adoring sister. A woman must return to her native Poland in order to poison her terminally ill high school sweetheart, and a young man slowly descends into madness when his wife and child mysteriously vanish during a vacation and just as suddenly reappear. Through these brilliantly imagined characters and stories, interwoven with haunting, playful, and revelatory meditations, Flights explores what it means to be a traveler, a wanderer, a body in motion not only through space but through time. Where are you from? Where are you coming in from? Where are you going? we call to the traveler. Enchanting, unsettling, and wholly original, Flights is a master storyteller's answer.

Book Description
This book may seem a simple accumulation of twenty-one public space projects in eight Latin American cities. On closer inspection, the presentation of project descriptions, photographs, and annotated drawings reflects a concern to analytically explain the operative aspects at work. The publication is not intended to serve only as a catalogue, guide, or manual on how to produce public space in spontaneous settlements. Rather, it goes beyond the aims of an index of best practices. It is intended, instead, as an empirical base for a critical and theoretical engagement with the problematic of development, social inclusion, public investment, (in)formal settlement, civil society and the public sphere. The publication achieves its final function at this third level, by providing a compelling argument to expand the agency of architects and urban designers and creatively find ways of justifying, financing, and building public spaces in communities —spaces that have a catalytic effectiveness in achieving significant urban and social transformation. This book was awarded by a Graham Foundation Grant and CAF Development Bank of Latin America.
