Esperimenti didattici e amatoriali con i contatori Geiger
Questo libro offre una raccolta completa di esperimenti introduttivi alla fisica dei raggi cosmici e alla fisica nucleare utilizzando i contatori Geiger. Presenta oltre 50 esperimenti con brevi spiegazioni della fisica coinvolta, indicazioni sull'impostazione di esperimenti didattici e amatoriali, mostrandone i risultati effettivi. Gli esperimenti coprono l'utilizzo dei contatori Geiger per rilevare radiazioni alfa, beta, gamma e raggi cosmici, valutare le prestazioni di un rivelatore, monitorare il livello di radiazioni in vari ambienti, condurre esperimenti di coincidenza e applicare nozioni di statistica e algoritmi di analisi dati. I capitoli introduttivi approfondiscono inoltre i princìpi basilari delle radiazioni, i processi di interazione della radiazione con la materia e la storia dei rivelatori di particelle, in particolare i contatori Geiger. Con la diffusa disponibilità di contatori Geiger moderni ed economici e di dispositivi fai-da-te, molti esperimenti sono adatti anche agli studenti delle scuole superiori e universitari, in linea con i moderni programmi di studio della fisica. L'autore ha condotto personalmente molti di questi esperimenti negli ultimi 20 anni con studenti di fisica del terzo anno. Il libro si rivolge anche agli scienziati dilettanti e ad un vasto pubblico interessato ad esplorare i fenomeni delle radiazioni e della loro rivelazione. Presenta circa 250 illustrazioni originali e riferimenti a esperimenti storici e scoperte contemporanee.

Third Man Factor
The Third Man Factor tells the revealing story behind an extraordinary idea: that people at the very edge of death, often adventurers or explorers, experience a benevolent presence beside them who encourages them to make one final effort to survive. If only a handful of people had ever experienced the Third Man, it might be dismissed as an unusual delusion but over the years the experience has occurred again and again: to mountaineers, divers, polar explorers, prisoners of war, solo sailors, aviators, astronauts and 9/11 survivors. All have escaped traumatic events only to tell strikingly similar stories of having experienced the close presence of a helper or guardian. In The Third Man Factor John Geiger combines history, scientific analysis and great adventure stories to explain this secret to survival, the Third Man who - in the words of legendary Italian climber Reinhold Messner - 'leads you out of the impossible'.
