| Title | Quantum Physics, Mini Black Holes, and the Multiverse : Debunking Common Misconceptions in Theoretical Physics |
| Author(s) | Nomura, Yasunori;Poirier, Bill;Terning, John;Nekoogar, Farzad |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2018. |
| Description | XIV, 212 p. 190 illus., 71 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | "Modern physics is rife with provocative and fascinating ideas, from quantum mechanics to the multiverse. But as interesting as these concepts are, they are also easy to understand. This book, written with deft hands by true experts in the field, helps to illuminate some of the most important and game-changing ideas in physics today." Sean M. Carroll "The Multiversal book series is equally unique, providing book-length extensions of the lectures with enough additional depth for those who truly want to explore these fields, while also providing the kind of clarity that is appropriate for interested lay people to grasp the general principles involved. " Lawrence M. Krauss This book explores, explains and debunks some common misconceptions about quantum physics, particle physics, space-time, and Multiverse cosmology. It seeks to separate science from pseudoscience. The material is presented in layperson-friendly language, followed by additional technical sections which explain basic equations and principles. This feature is very attractive to non-expert readers who nevertheless seek a deeper understanding of the theories, and wish to explore beyond just the basic description.

| Title | Extra Dimensions in Space and Time |
| Author(s) | Bars, Itzhak;Terning, John;Nekoogar, Farzad |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2010. |
| Description | XIV, 218 p. 89 illus., 11 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | "???The Multiversal book series is equally unique, providing book-length extensions of the lectures with enough additional depth for those who truly want to explore these fields, while also providing the kind of clarity that is appropriate for interested lay people to grasp the general principles involved." -Lawrence M. Krauss The aim of this book is to continue to raise public awareness in the exciting field of theoretical physics and cosmology. It covers the latest theories at a level not weighed down by highly mathematical equations. Each chapter is written by a leading expert who is presently researching and lecturing on the topics. Extra Dimensions in Space and Time has two main features that differentiate it from all other books written about the topic: The first feature is the coverage of extra dimensions in time (Two-Time physics), which has not been covered in earlier books. All other books on the topic focus on extra spatial dimensions. The second feature deals with level of presentation. The material is presented in a non-technical language followed by additional technical sections (in the form of appendices or footnotes) that explain the basic equations and formulas in the theories. This feature is very attractive to readers who want to learn more about the theories involved beyond the basic description for a layperson. Topics Covered: Structure of matter & fundamental forces Einstein???s relativistic view of space-time Equivalence Principle and General Relativity Symmetry and perspective Why higher space or time dimensions? Extra space dimensions and String Theory Einstein and the Fourth Dimension Traditional Extra Dimensions String Theory and Branes Warped Extra Dimensions How to Look For Extra Dimensions? Extra Dimensions: The equations behind the words Two Time Physics Current status of 2T-Physics and future directions Multiversal Journeys??? is a trademark of Farzad Nekoogar and Multiversal Journeys, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization |

| Title | Cosmic Update : Dark Puzzles. Arrow of Time. Future History |
| Author(s) | Adams, Fred;Buchert, Thomas;Mersini-Houghton, Laura;Nekoogar, Farzad |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2012. |
| Description | XII, 140 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | "...The Multiversal book series is equally unique, providing book-length extensions of the lectures with enough additional depth for those who truly want to explore these fields, while also providing the??kind of clarity that is appropriate for interested lay people to grasp the general principles involved." - Lawrence M. Krauss Cosmic Update covers: A novel approach to uncover the dark faces of the Standard Model of cosmology. The possibility that Dark Energy and Dark Matter are manifestations of the inhomogeneous geometry of our Universe. The history of cosmological model building and the general architecture of cosmological models. Illustrations of the Large Scale Structure of the Universe. A new perspective on the classical static Einstein Cosmos. Global properties of World Models including their Topology. The Arrow of Time in a Universe with a Positive Cosmological Constant. The exploration of the consequences of a fundamental Cosmological Constant for our Universe. The exploration of??why the current observed acceleration of the Universe may not be its final destiny. A demonstration that nature forbids the existence of a pure Cosmological Constant. Our current understanding of the long term (in time scales that greatly exceed the current age of the Universe) future of the Universe. The long term fate and eventual destruction of the astrophysical objects that populate the universe --??including clusters, galaxies, stars, planets, and black holes. The material is presented in a layperson-friendly language followed by additional technical sections which explain??basic equations and principles. This feature is very attractive to readers who want to learn more about the theories involved beyond the basic description.
