Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Simple Stoic is a clear, practical guide to Stoicism for people who want something they can actually use in everyday life.Stoicism is often presented as dense philosophy or reduced to motivational quotes taken out of context. This book takes a different approach. It breaks Stoicism down into simple ideas, explains them in plain language, and shows how they apply to real situations such as stress, overthinking, emotional reactions, difficult people, work pressure, fear, desire, and decision-making.You will not find academic theory, imaginary stories, or complicated terminology here. Every chapter exists for a purpose. Each one focuses on a specific area of life and explains how Stoic thinking can reduce unnecessary mental suffering while improving clarity, discipline, and consistency.This book is not about becoming emotionless or passive. It is about learning how to respond instead of react, how to act without being ruled by mood, and how to stay steady when life is uncertain or unfair. Stoicism is treated as a tool, not an identity. You are encouraged to apply what is useful and ignore what is not.Inside this book, you will learn how to- Understand what is truly in your control and what is not- Reduce stress, anxiety, and overthinking- Handle emotions without suppressing them- Deal with other people without losing your peace of mind- Build discipline without harsh self-criticism- Make clearer decisions with less regret- Manage desire, fear, pleasure, and comfort realistically- Apply Stoicism through simple daily practices.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This thesis demonstrates a previously untested capability of the Rotating Modulation Collimator (RMC) to image a point-like neutron source. The encouraging results, achieved using low-energy neutrons, provide motivation for further refinement and continued research with higher-energy neutrons. The detector and the masks on an existing RMC imaging system were exchanged to function with neutrons. The source in this research produced a poly-energetic spectrum of neutrons through the reaction. The source of alpha particles was a 72.7 mCi 239Pu source. The RMC detector was located 250 cm from the bare source and operated for three hours to generate a modulation profile: The number of particles detected at each rotation angle of the masks -- it is unique for each source location. The measured modulation profiles were used in a Maximum-Likelihood-Expectation-Maximization algorithm to reconstruct the images, and a Bootstrap resampling technique was used to determine uncertainty. The reconstructed images exhibited high contrast but low precision. The resampled image locations were widely distributed, but the most frequent value was very accurate. The uncertainty originated from an expectation model that did not account for fast neutron downscatter into the thermal neutron region as well as the fast neutrons streaming through the masks and being detected.
