Large Scale Structures of the Universe: Proceedings of the 130th Symposium of the International Astronomical Union, Dedicated to the Memory of Marc A.
ISBN: 9789027727442 / Angielski / Miękka / 622 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Ten years ago in August 1977 Malcom Longair and Jan Einasto organized IAU Symposium nO 79 on exactly the same exciting and most important topic i.e. the Large Scale Structure of the Universe. Many of us have the recollection of an outstanding meeting which fulfilled two goals (i) establish most of the foundation of a fast growing field (ii) set up a confrontation between the excellent observational and theoretical work performed in eastern and western countries. A decade after such a meeting Alex Szalay and I have felt the need to reassemble the cosmologists working actively on problems...

ISBN: 9789027727527 / Angielski / Twarda / 364 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. ''An atteJDpt has been made to cOll1PlJte the numbers of certain JI10lecules in interstellar space, . . . . A search for the bands of CH, O/{, DR, en and C2 would appear to be proIDising" P Swings and L Rosenfeld Astrophysical Journal 86,483(1937) This may have been the first attempt at modelling interstellar chemistry. As with models today, the methods used lacked reliability, but the speculation was impressive Mark Twain might well have said of this infant subject "One gets such wholesale returns of conjecture out of such a trifling investment of fact." The detection of unidentified lines...

Pulsation and Mass Loss in Stars: Proceedings of a Workshop Held in Trieste, Italy, September 14–18, 1987
ISBN: 9789027727701 / Angielski / Twarda / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Stellar mass loss is an essential part of the cycling of material from the interstellar medium into stars and back, and must be understood if we are to model processes on galactic to cosmological scales. The study of stellar winds and the effects of stellar mass loss has reached a particularly exciting stage where observational capabilities are increasingly able to provide interesting constraints on models and theories. Recent resu1ts from theoretical and observational work for both hot and cool stars with substantial winds have led to the suggestion that a combination of pulsation with other...

Mapping the Sky: Past Heritage and Future Directions Proceedings of the 133rd Symposium of the International Astronomical Union Held in
ISBN: 9789027728104 / Angielski / Miękka / 544 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. I.A.U. Symposium No. 133, "Mapping the Sky: Past Heritage and Future Directions" was held at Paris on 1-5 June, 1987. The rationale for this meeting is to combine historical and modern aspects of mapping the sky; historical in that the meeting celebrates the initiation of the carte du Ciel at the Observatoire de Paris in 1887 and evaluates its impact on astrometry and astronomy in general. And modern in the sense that now in optical, radio and other wavelengths the sky is and needs to be charted in detail. The Symposium also commemorates the 150th anniversary of the first trigonometric...

Dynamics and Structure of Quiescent Solar Prominences
ISBN: 9789027728340 / Angielski / Miękka / 217 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Prominences are amazing objects of great beauty whose formation, basic structure and eruption represent one of the basic unsolved problems in Solar Physics. It is now 14 years since the last book on prominences appeared (Tandberg-Hanssen, 1974), during which time much progress in our knowledge of the physics of prominences has been made, and so the time is ripe for a new text book which it is hoped will be a helpful summary of the subject for students, postdocs and solar researchers. Indeed, the last few years has seen an upsurge in interest in prominences due to high resolution ground-and...

Physics of Comets (2nd Edition)
ISBN: 9789810226329 / Angielski / Twarda / 396 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The study of Comet Halley in 1986 was a tremendous success giving a big boost to cometary science. In March of that year, six spacecrafts passed through Comet Halley as close as 600 km from the nucleus and made the "in situ" measurements of various kinds. These space missions to Comet Halley and that of the ICE spacecraft to Comet Giacobini-Zinner combined with studies, both ground-based and above the atmosphere, have increased our knowledge of cometary science in a dramatic way. This new edition of "Physics of Comets" incorporates these new and exciting findings. The emphasis of the book is...

Mindsteps to the Cosmos
ISBN: 9789812381231 / Angielski / Twarda / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Mindsteps to the Cosmos shows how modern global civilization depends on giant leaps of understanding that have been made in the past. Science and technology have been inspired and formulated by the sky -- the cosmos in which we live. Human development could not have taken place on a cloud-shrouded planet. Mathematics was invented to track the movements of the sun, moon and stars even though back then these were thought to be gods. The space program has taken us beyond the earth, and satellite systems are exploring to the ends of the visible universe. This book provides the reader with...
