Information Handling in Astronomy - Historical Vistas
ISBN: 9781402011788 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 298 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book is dedicated to the memory of Gisele Mersch whose life ended prematurely in June 2002. Back in the 1970s, when few people were using them, Gisele introduced me to the arcane secrets of then advanced m- tivariate statistical methodologies. I was already involved in more classical statistical studies undertaken at Paris Observatory with Jean Jung: developing and applying maxim- likelihood algorithms to stellar photometric and kinematic data in order to derive absolute luminosities, distances and velocities in the solar neighb- hood. But what could be envisaged with those methodologies...

Information Handling in Astronomy
ISBN: 9789401058711 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The pilot boat just moved away and'its lights are already fading towards the coast of Northeastern Queensland over which Saturn is going to set. There is still quite some time to go before dawn. The big ship has now regained her cruise speed following its roughly northwesterly route in the South Coral Sea along the chain of nearby reefs. Few people are around at this time, except a dozen early birds sharing some 'shipshaping' exercise on the top deck and taking advantage of the relative coolness of the night. On my way down to the stateroom, I cannot but stop once more in front of that...

The Multinational History of Strasbourg Astronomical Observatory
ISBN: 9789048169184 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Strasbourg Astronomical Observatory is quite an interesting place for historians: several changes of nationality between France and Germany, high-profile scientists having been based there, big projects born or installed within its walls, and so on. Most of the documents circulating on the history of the Observatory and on related matters have however been so far poorly referenced, if at all. This made necessary the compilation of a volume such as this one, offering fully-documented historical facts and references on the first decades of the Observatory history, authored by both French...

organizations and strategies in astronomy: volume 5
ISBN: 9781402025709 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Anyone who doubts that astronomy is enjoying a golden age has only to browse the pages of Organizations and Strategies in Astronomy, Vol. 5. Our golden age is defined not only by the enormity of new discoveries of dark energy, dark matter, extra-solar planets, and the evolution of Mars, but also by the breadth, diversity, and creativity within our community. This volume records our history, in a period of such rapid change and growth that individual astronomers are hard-pressed to keep abreast of their own fields and neighborhoods, much less of developments world-wide. Since the 1950's,...

Starbriefs 2001: A Dictionary of Abbreviations, Acronyms and Symbols in Astronomy, Related Space Sciences and Other Related Fields
ISBN: 9780792365105 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 813 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This compilation probably looks like one of the craziest things a human being could spend his or her time on. Yet nobody would wonder at someone taking a short walk every day - after twenty five years that person would have covered a surprisingly long distance. This is exactly the story behind this list, which appeared first as a few pages within the directory StarGuides (or whatever name it had at that time) and as a distinct sister publication since 1990. The idea behind this dictionary is to offer astronomers and related space scientists practical assistance in decoding the numerous...

Organizations and Strategies in Astronomy: Volume II
ISBN: 9789401038607 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Seated in a sun-lit corner of his 17th century Dutch house, his hand touching a celestial globe, Johannes Vermeer's "Astronomer" seems to pon der about the mysteries of the universe. We might make the trip to Paris and ask him, in the Louvre, what precisely is on his mind. Unfortunately, there will be no answer. But we do know what his mind was not on. It was not on the approaching deadlines for the proposals he would have to write for getting funds and telescope-time, not on the meeting of the observing programs committee, not on his refereeing duty for the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics,...

Introduction to Maple
ISBN: 9781461265054 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 828 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The first two editions of this book have been very well received by the com munity, but so many revisions ofthe Maple system have occurred since then that simply reprinting the out-of-stock book would not do anymore. A ma jor revision of the book was inevitable, too. The wording "major revision" must be taken seriously because I not only corrected typographical errors, rephrased text fragments, and updated many examples, but I also rewrote complete chapters and added new material. In particular, the chapter on differential equations now discusses Liesymmetry methods, partial differen tial...

Organizations and Strategies in Astronomy 6
ISBN: 9789400788510 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 351 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. When I wasa child, growing up in South America,I often went camping in the wild and hence had direct access to the wondrous Southern sky; the Southern Cross was all mine at the time. Little did I know then that the study of the sky would take such a huge importance in my life, and that in the end astronomy and astrophysics would in many ways become my country and my religion. I have lived in several di?erent countries, and when asked my nationality, I am always very tempted to reply: astronomer. I started as a theorist, and my only dream in my youth was to spend nights thinking and...

ISBN: 9789401039895 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. I am most grateful to Andr e Heck for his invitation to write a foreword to OSA Volume 4 - I will use this valued opportunity to emphasise those topics in Vol. 4 which I consider important even if other topics may be of even greater importance in the universal scale of things. At the outset let me say that I commend Vol. 4 to its readers - it contains much of very great interest for organisations and strategies in astronomy. A topic which I consider to be of very great importance at this time is Adverse Environmental Impact on Astronomy. There are two papers on this topic in OSA 4 - Cohen on...

Organizations and Strategies in Astronomy
ISBN: 9789401037938 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 221 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Research and publications in the field of Astronomy have undergone dramatic changes in the last half-century. While activities just slowed down during World War II in the US and in Latin America, they were very strongly affected by the difficult conditions prevailing among the European belligerent nations. Half a century ago, re search activities were mostly confined to observatories (linked or not to universities) and usually separated from the teaching of physical sciences. Hence, directors of observatories played an important role in the choice of the research fields, and "schools" of...

The ship has left the Miraflores Locks, let loose from the 'mules' run by the crews of the Panama Canal Commission. She has picked up speed while passing under the Bridge of the Americas which links de facto the Northern and Southern parts of the continent, and has headed resolutely towards the Pacific Ocean waters along the rows of boats of all kinds waiting to cross the Canal in the other direction. Through a layer of tropical clouds, the setting Sun is bleakly illuminating the tall white highrises of Panama City on the port side. It took a full day to cautiously move through the whole...
