The Sun: An Introduction
ISBN: 9783540537960 / Angielski / Miękka / 390 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As in all other fields of astronomy, progress in instrumentation and observational techniques has in recent years brought a wealth of new information about the sun. This introduction presents a complete overview of solar physics, of what we know and would like to know. The increasing number of observations of solar pheno- mena on neighbouring stars makes this book valuable not only for students specializing in solar physics but also for researchers interested in stellar structure and the solar-stellar connection.

Black Hole Gravitohydromagnetics
ISBN: 9783642095634 / Angielski / Miękka / 399 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Black hole gravitohydromagnetics (GHM) is developed from the rudiments to the frontiers of research in this book. GHM describes plasma interactions that combine the effects of gravity and a strong magnetic field, in the vicinity (ergosphere) of a rapidly rotating black hole. This topic was created in response to the astrophysical quest to understand the central engines of radio loud extragalactic radio sources. The theory describes a "torsional tug of war" between rotating ergospheric plasma and the distant asymptotic plasma that extracts the rotational inertia of the black hole. The...

Fisica del Plasma: Fondamenti E Applicazioni Astrofisiche
ISBN: 9788847018471 / Włoski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. L'opera si propone di introdurre i principi fondamentali della Fisica del Plasma, disciplina che trova applicazione sia nel campo del'energetica (Fusione Termonucleare Controllata), sia dell'Astrofisica (oltre il 90% della materia dell'Universo e sotto forma di plasma). Dopo un capitolo introduttivo, vengono discussi i possibili schemi di descrizione teorica dei plasmi. La parte centrale e dedicata alla discussione della magnetoidrodinamica, con particolare riguardo alla teoria delle onde e delle instabilita. Vengono infine trattati i problemi della riconnessione magnetica e delle onde d'urto...

Capire l'Universo: L'Appassionante Avventura Della Cosmologia
ISBN: 9788847019676 / Włoski / Miękka / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Si ripercorre la storia della cosmologia moderna, dal XVIII secolo fino alle piu recenti scoperte (l'opera e aggiornata fino alla fine 2010). La cosmologia fa uso di concetti complessi, che vengono spesso fraintesi, o che non vengono compresi del tutto, da chi non e specialista del campo. Lo scopo del volume e di trattare esaustivamente tali concetti, entrando nel dettaglio per far cogliere intuitivamente il loro significato autentico anche ai non addetti: a questo scopo, si fa uso di metafore calzanti, di analogie newtoniane, di trattazioni quantitative che richiedono solo le conoscenze di...

Aurora
ISBN: 9789027702739 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Over the past two decades auroral science has developed from a somewhat mysterious and imprecise specialty into a discipline central in the study of the ionosphere and magnetosphere. The investigation of aurora unites scientists with very different backgrounds and interests so that it is difficult to write a self-contained account of the field in a book of reasonable length. In this work I have attempted to include those aspects of theory which I have found valuable in predicting the effects on the atmosphere of auroral particle precipitation. In addition I have attempted to describe the...

The Moon in the Post-Apollo Era
ISBN: 9789027702784 / Angielski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The aim of the present book will be to summarize the results of the space exploration of the Moon in the past fifteen years -culminating in the manned Apollo missions of 1969-1972 -on the background of our previous acquaintance with our satellite made in the past by astronomical observations at a distance. Astronomy is one of the oldest branches of science conceived by the inquisitive human mind; though until quite recently it had been debarred from the status of a genuine experimental science by the remoteness of the objects of its study. With the sole exception of meteoritic matter which...

Chromospheric Fine Structure
ISBN: 9789027702883 / Angielski / Miękka / 310 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The devotion of an IA U symposium entirely to the topic of chromo spheric fine structure at a time when models of the spherically symmetric chromosphere are still evolving constitutes a valid recognition of the growing feeling among solar astron- omers that the chromosphere cannot be understood independently of its discrete structural features. Network structure, which seemingly borders the photospheric supergranule cells, persists intact throughout the chromosphere and most of the chromosphere-corona transition region. The network is the locus of the bright coarse mottles, and the spicule...

X-Ray Astronomy
ISBN: 9789027703873 / Angielski / Miękka / 452 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It was about fourteen years ago that some of us became intrigued with the idea of searching the sky for X-ray and gamma-ray sources other than the Sun, the only celestial emitter of high-energy photons known at that time. It was, of course, clear that an effort in this direction would not have been successful unless there occurred, somewhere in space, processes capable of producing high-energy photons much more efficiently than the processes responsible for the radiative emission of the Sun or of ordinary stars. The possible existence of such processes became the subject of much study and...

Consequently, of all the major manifestations of solar activity only prominences are without a comprehensive and unified treatment in the current literature. The present book is written in an attempt to remedy this situation, and to furnish an account of some of the most spectacular and most...

D. de Feiter 'Solar High Energy Photon and Particle Emission'. The second part, with the original title, was to be published by de Feiter in about one year from now. However, to the deep sorrow of all of us, Dr de Feiter died suddenly and unexpectedly when the present book was in print. Thus, unfortunately, de Feiter's second part may not appear. Due to the fact that the originally planned publication was divided into two parts, the present book is mainly descriptive and concerned with the flare morphology....

Basic Mechanisms of Solar Activity
ISBN: 9789027706812 / Angielski / Miękka / 497 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Our first attempt to organize a Symposium on solar activity was made at the lAO General Assembly in Brighton 1970. There, at the session of Commission 10, we proposed to organize a Symposium which would stress the observational aspects of solar activity. It was our hope that such a Symposium might stimulate studies of those important problems in solar physics which for a long time had been neglected in overall scientific discussion. Although a provisional date for the Symposium was then decided, it did not take place to avoid overlapping with other lAO activities. At the session of Commission...

Double Stars
ISBN: 9789027708861 / Angielski / Miękka / 175 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Double and multiple stars are the rule in the stellar population, and single stars the minority, as the abundance of binary systems in the space surrounding the sun shows beyond doubt. Numerous stellar features, and methods of their exploration, ensue specifically from the one but widespread property, the binary nature. Stellar masses are basic quantities for the theory of stellar structure and evolution, and they are ob- tained from binary-star orbits where they depend on the cube of observed parameters; this fact illustrates the significance of orbits as well as the accuracy requirements....
