The Spiral Galaxy M33
ISBN: 9789400737594 / Angielski / Miękka / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book summarizes the gathering of information on and the growing understanding of M33 from the 1920s, when Hubble first determined its true nature, to the 21st century, when the Hubble Telescope probed deeply into its many secrets. With its regular symmetrical spiral structure, and its being not tilted too much and near enough to allow detailed studies of its stars, M33 is well-suited for the study of a typical spiral galaxy. This book summarizes the gathering of information on and the growing understanding of M33 from the 1920s, when Hubble first determined its true nat... |

Quantum Information in Gravitational Fields
ISBN: 9781627053297 / Angielski / Miękka / 298 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book offers a concise discussion of quantum information in classical gravitational fields described by Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. Besides a basic description of the fundamental physical principles of quantum fields in curved spacetimes, we also offer some new results on steganographic quantum communications in inertial frames, qubits in Schwarzschild spacetime, the spin-curvature coupling in Schwarzschild spacetime, qubits in Kerr spacetimes, and the performance of quantum technologies operating in gravitational fields. A significant part of our discussion is restricted to...

Galactic and Extra-Galactic Radio Astronomy
ISBN: 9781468462425 / Angielski / Miękka / 402 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The present set of chapters by members of the staff of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory deals with the basic fields of research concerned with radio astronomy outside the solar system. The emphasis in this volume is on the type of data available and its interpretation. Basic theory is considered only where absolutely necessary, and little discussion of receivers or techniques is entered into in most of the chapters. The book is intended to take over where most textbooks on radio astronomy leave off, that is, in the discussion of what is actually known from the research done. In...

Starbursts Triggers, Nature, and Evolution: Les Houches School, September 17-27, 1996
ISBN: 9782868833341 / Angielski / Miękka / 255 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Starbursts are regions of unusually rapid star formation, often located in the central parts of galaxies. They differ from more normal regions of star formation in terms of the throughput of mass and the rapidity with which the gas is consumed. In the last twenty years, extensive observational data at most wavelengths have become available on starbursts, but many important issues remain to be addressed, observationally as well as theoretically. How are strong episodes of star formation triggered? What is the quantity of gas converted into stars during bursts? What is the initial mass function...

Giants of Eclipse: The ζ Aurigae Stars and Other Binary Systems
ISBN: 9783319091976 / Angielski / Twarda / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The zeta Aurigae stars are the rare but illustrious sub-group of binary stars that undergo the dramatic phenomenon of "chromospheric eclipse." This book provides detailed descriptions of the ten known systems, illustrates them richly with examples of new spectra, and places them in the context of stellar structure and evolution. Comprised of a large cool giant plus a small hot dwarf, these key eclipsing binaries reveal fascinating changes in their spectra very close to total eclipse, when the hot star shines through differing heights of the "chromosphere," or outer atmosphere, of the...

Unlocking the Secrets of White Dwarf Stars
ISBN: 9783319093680 / Angielski / Miękka / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. White dwarfs, each containing about as much mass as our Sun but packed into a volume about the size of Earth, are the endpoints of evolution for most stars. Thousands of these faint objects have now been discovered, though only a century ago only three were known. They are among the most common stars in the Milky Way Galaxy, and they have become important tools in understanding the universe. Yet a century ago only three white dwarfs were known. The existence of these stars completely baffled the scientists of the day, and solving the mysteries of these strange objects required revolutionary...

Camille Flammarion's the Planet Mars: As Translated by Patrick Moore
ISBN: 9783319096407 / Angielski / Twarda / 551 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Camille Flammarion (1842-1925) began his career at 16 as a human computer under the great mathematician U. J. J. Le Verrier at the Paris Observatory. He soon tired of the drudgery; he was drawn to more romantic vistas, and at 19 wrote a book on an idea that he was to make his own-the habitability of other worlds. There followed a career as France's greatest popularizer of astronomy, with over 60 titles to his credit. An admirer granted him a chateau at Juvisy-sur-l'Orge, and he set up a first-rate observatory dedicated to the study of the planet Mars. Finally, in 1892, he published his...

Spectral Evolution in Blazars: The Case of CTA 102
ISBN: 9783319107677 / Angielski / Twarda / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This prize-winning thesis deals with the observation and modeling of the spectral evolution of blazars. Based on single-dish light curves, a model of shock-shock interaction is tested and confirmed using multi-frequency high resolution Very Long Baseline Observations. He presents state-of-the art numerical relativistic hydrodynamic simulations and the corresponding non-thermal emission is calculated (eRHD simulations). The author further presents new analysis techniques for VLBI observations that can be applied to numerous sources and provide reliable results including an error estimate...This prize-winning thesis deals with the observation and modeling of the spectral evolution of blazars.

Asteroseismology of Stellar Populations in the Milky Way
ISBN: 9783319109923 / Angielski / Twarda / 185 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The detection of radial and non-radial solar-like oscillations in thousands of G-K giants with CoRoT and Kepler is paving the road for detailed studies of stellar populations in the Galaxy. The available average seismic constraints allow largely model-independent determination of stellar radii and masses, and can be used to determine the position and age of thousands of stars in different regions of the Milky Way, and of giants belonging to open clusters. Such a close connection between stellar evolution, Galactic evolution, and asteroseismology opens a new very promising gate in our...
