In 1995, the Bose-Einstein condensate was created by Eric Cornell and Carl Wieman of the University of Colorado Boulder using rubidium atoms later that year, Wolfgang Ketterle of MIT produced a BEC using sodium atoms. This state was first predicted, generally, in 1924–1925 by Albert Einstein following and crediting a pioneering paper by Satyendra Nath Bose on the new field now known as quantum statistics. A BEC is formed by cooling a gas of extremely low density (about 100,000 times less dense than normal air) to ultra-low temperatures. Under such conditions, a large fraction of bosons occupy the lowest quantum state, at which point microscopic quantum mechanical phenomena, particularly wavefunction interference, become apparent macroscopically. In condensed matter physics, a Bose–Einstein condensate ( BEC) is a state of matter that is typically formed when a gas of bosons at very low densities is cooled to temperatures very close to absolute zero (−273.15 ☌ or −459.67 ☏).

It begins in 1907, when Amulya leaves Calcutta with his young wife, Kananbala, and travels to the backwater of Songarh to open a factory to manufacture herbal potions and perfumes. A sprawling epic of love, class and ambition, it has more in common with Dreiser’s “An American Tragedy” than it does with “The Mahabharata.” In it, a single act of pity rattles down generations to break a caste’s rules, test a family’s mettle and throw together two unlikely childhood friends, who will negotiate every circuit of human love. Apart from its setting just outside Calcutta, Roy’s “Atlas” is hardly distant. Digital Replica Edition Home Page Close MenuĪn Atlas of Impossible Longing by Anuradha RoyĪnuradha Roy’s “An Atlas of Impossible Longing” (Free Press) is a novel to convince us that boldly drawn sagas with larger-than-life characters are still possible in a relentlessly postmodern world.

While he showed a lot of promise while he was in high school, he decided to pursue accounting when he went to college and writing took a backseat. The manuscripts that would follow it were published in some form or other in the course of his career. He wrote his first novel as a high schooler, though he never published it. Apart from being a voracious reader he has always been a writer and remembers the disconcert he caused among his teachers in elementary school, when he transformed a story about hockey-playing mice playing into an action story. Needing something to read while commuting to his accounting job in Calgary, he turned to self-published authors. By the time he was an adult, he had run out of his favorite traditionally published authors such as Ian Douglas and David Weber. It is from the library that he first got interested in reading and writing. Growing up, he remembers that his parents had a library full of science fiction works. Glynn Stewart is a fantasy and science fiction author from Kitchener, Ontario best known for his “Starship’s Mage” series of novels. It’s a rare book that does that and when you find one, it deserves respect. The bottom line is that this story, and Roseanne’s voice (via Wanda McCaddon) has stayed with me, even as I move through other stories. I’m removing one star for how far-fetched the storyline was, but I do so half-heartedly. Then again, I think that was the intent from the start to study a life lived only within the lines others drew. It was difficult at times to accept how fatalistic the main character was, and how little she fought for herself throughout her life. While the story of Roseanne McNulty’s life is unarguably tragic, much of her commentary contains hilarious quotes and observations that often had me breaking out in unexpected laughter. This beautiful little novel, so perfectly narrated by Wanda McCaddon, was a welcomed change from the ordinary. Maxwell, Tijan, Amelia Wilde, Skye Warren.

NIGHTINGALE is a romance anthology with over FIFTY original, never-before-seen stories from bestselling authors. Everything in the Duke rebelled against the idea of being saddled with Louisa and her five younger sisters. I just had so much fun with this book! Thanks to Lisa for the recommendation!ĭuke Bray Drakestone was unfortunate enough to promise his dying friend that he would marry his younger sister Miss Louisa Prim and offer her the protection of Duke's name. It was so fun watching Louisa and the duke fall for each other, but Louisa was still adamant that she would never marry him. The chaperone that came to stay with them was also so fun and I enjoyed watching her try to get the women married off. Louisa would do anything for her sisters, which was so adorable. I loved the interaction Louisa and her sisters had and how integral to the romance they all were. He doesn't know how to handle a family like that, but they were definitely my favorite. He is thrown off by five rambunctious sisters and has never had that kind of family before. From the start, Louisa has no interest in marrying the duke. Well, two years later and Louisa and her sisters are back in London for her younger sister to come out and the duke never made good on his promise of marrying Louisa. THIS WAS SO CUTEEEEEE! The duke was with Louisa's brother when he died and promised him that he'd take care of Louisa and her four sisters by marrying her. I just… truly wish to know Auguste, as a character and not just through someone’s memories, and I can only hope CS Pacat’s fourth story will be about him. Writer Melbourne, Australia Born November 9 Joined December 2008. How he looks like, his flaws, his qualities, his strenghts, his weaknesses, his whole character. New York Times & USA Today bestselling author of DARK RISE, CAPTIVE PRINCE and the GLAAD-nominated graphic novel FENCE. A pre-Marlas story with Auguste and young!Laurent in it, so that we could have the chance to truly know Auguste, as a Crown Prince, as a son, as a brother. Which makes me even more curious to see, perhaps one day if CS Pacat will write one, a short story featuring Auguste. Mostly, he would remember all his good traits and idealize him in his mind, just like young!Laurent idealized his big brother. Of course, surely Auguste had flaws as well as qualities, but why would Laurent talk about his brother’s flaws when his brother is dead, and that Laurent loved him more than anything. So of course Laurent remembers him as a good person and talks about his good traits. Auguste, the beloved older brother Laurent saw as a hero. Of course, we don’t know many things about Auguste and it is mostly Laurent talking about him in the serie. I am aware, though the serie is mostly told from Damen’s point of view, Auguste is kind of an idealized character. I often think about Auguste, and how amazing it is that CS Pacat can make us love him, a character we actually never saw in the Captive Prince serie. |
