The new, nineteenth edition of the free Motion Mountain physics text
can now be downloaded at

http://www.motionmountain.net/japanese.html

Over 1000 pages lead through the whole of physics, from mechanics to
relativity, electrodynamics, thermodynamics, quantum theory, nuclear
physics and unification.

The nineteenth edition gives details on radiometric dating techniques,
explains how to destroy airplanes with thermometers, shows how to use
the same idea to measure the speed of bullets and that of light,
presents a
classical system that obeys the Schroedinger equation, introduces Tesla
coils,
shows that space-time has different properties in certain patent
offices,
tells how to see effects from atoms using only a lamp and a piece of
metal, gives
more details on clouds and jets of astronomic size, shows how to
perform a
precision Michelson-Morley experiment, gives the latest results on the
Pioneer anomaly, introduces fusion reactors, demonstrates the chromatic
lens
errors of the eye, and presents the simplest unsolved problem about the
trefoil
knot.

The text also provides improved writing, more figures, more
curiosities, many additional solutions to the challenges, and, thanks
to the help of
Martin Elsaesser, the first embedded animation. Many thanks also to all
those
readers who have suggested improvements and material for the text. An
errata page that allows direct feedback via the website is now
available. 

Enjoy.
