The following changes run parallel, overlap, and\/or interact: \u003cbr\u003e- Discovery of effects like X-rays, radioactivity, cosmic rays, new particles but also  progress  through non-discoveries (monopoles)  etc. \u003cbr\u003e- The change of the description of nature in physics, as consequence of new theoretical questions at the beginning of the 20th century, giving rise to quantum physics, relativity, etc. \u003cbr\u003e- The change of experimental methods, cooperations, disciplinary divisions. \u003cbr\u003eWith regard to the latter change, a main topic of the book is to make the specific multi-diciplinary features of astroparticle physics clear.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2015-01-29\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789400794559\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-007-5422-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 346\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46610896978060,"sku":"9789400794559","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789400794559.jpg?v=1773282586","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9789400794559","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
