Feature
★A book on the fundamental component of the atom, in which scientific concepts are framed against a historical and philosophical background.
★English sample available.
Description
The nucleus is a tiny dot at the center of the atom, of which it possesses almost all the mass. A seemingly insignificant speck that actually conceals a whole world. In the nucleus take place the interactions that give rise to the three types of radioactivity we know, as well as the fission and fusion to which we owe the energy produced in the Sun and other stars. The very existence of carbon, the element underlying organic molecules, rests on the structure of the nucleus. Giorgio Chinnici leads us to discover the secrets of the nucleus - and the stories of the great scientists who have studied it - filling a gap in the landscape of popular science.
