The Nevada Test Site - Emmet Gowin - Bog - Princeton University Press - Plusbog.dk

A photographic study of the land that served as the main testing site for American nuclear devices for four decades More nuclear bombs have been detonated in America than in any other country in the world. Between 1951 and 1992, the Nevada National Security Test Site was the primary location for these activities, withstanding more than a thousand nuclear tests that left swaths of the American Southwest resembling the moon. In The Nevada Test Site , renowned American photographer Emmet Gowin (b. 1941) presents staggering aerial photographs of this powerfully evocative place.Gowin remains the only photographer granted official and sustained access to the Nevada Test Site. For this book, he has revisited his original negatives, made in 1996 and 1997, and fully three-quarters of the images featured here have never been published before. These images show blast areas where sand has been transformed to glass, valleys pockmarked with hundreds of craters, trenches that protected soldiers from blasts, areas used to bury radioactive waste, and debris left behind following tests conducted as deep as five thousand feet below the Earth’s surface. Together, these stunning, unsettling views unveil environmental travesties on a grand scale. An essay by Gowin delves into the history of his work at the site, including his decade-long efforts to secure entry, the photographic equipment and techniques employed, and what the images mean to him today.With a foreword by photographer and writer Robert Adams, The Nevada Test Site stands as a testament to the harms we inflict on our surroundings, the importance of bearing witness, and the possibilities for aesthetic redemption and a more hopeful future.

The Joy of Quantum Computing - Jed Brody - Bog - Princeton University Press - Plusbog.dk

An engaging and accessible presentation of the most famous algorithms and applications of quantum computingThe Joy of Quantum Computing introduces quantum computing succinctly, and with minimal mathematical formalism. Engagingly written—a feast for the reader’s inner nerd—it presents the most famous algorithms and applications of quantum computing and quantum information science, including the “killer apps,” Grover’s search algorithm, and Shor’s factoring algorithm. The only prerequisite is precalculus; readers need no knowledge of quantum physics. Matrices are relegated to the (completely optional) final two chapters. The book shows readers that quantum information science is about more than just high-speed calculations and data security. It is also about the fundamental meaning of quantum mechanics and the ultimate nature of reality. The Joy of Quantum Computing is suitable for classroom use or independent study by questing autodidacts. • Offers detailed explanations of quantum circuits, quantum algorithms, and quantum mysteries• Explains how to apply quantum information science to cryptography (and how Shor’s algorithm menaces classical cryptography)• Introduces the mystifying topics of quantum teleportation and the no-cloning theorem• Discusses Bell inequalities, which permit experimental tests of philosophical assumptions• Presents a simple model of quantum decoherence, shedding light on Schrodinger’s mysterious cat
