Proportioned Geometrics: The Unification of Space-Time Matter and Force
ISBN: 9780595390175 / Angielski / Miękka / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The contents of this book propose a solution to the current problem in physics, specifically concerning the areas of Grand Unification of space-time, matter, and force. Grand unification describes the nature of combining the known forces in nature, the Electro-magnetic, strong, weak, and Gravitational forces, into a singular equilibrium. That is, the need for a framework to predict the behavior of systems at very small scales, such as atoms and particles, and those of the very large scales, such as galaxies, stars, planets, etc., and thus far within the articles of physics, there is still no...

ISBN: 9780750304481 / Angielski / Twarda / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since earliest times, one of the brightest lights in the heavens has been Jupiter, mythical king of the gods and the largest planet in the solar system. It was only natural that people from the dawn of history would be interested in such a planet and indeed, Jupiter was one of the first objects to be observed with the telescope. Even today Jupiter captures the public imagination: a vast gaseous world, home to violent storms, which have raged for centuries.

Gravitation: From the Hubble Length to the Planck Length
ISBN: 9780750309486 / Angielski / Twarda / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Although gravity is the dominant force of nature at large distances (from intermediate scales to the Hubble length), it is the weakest of forces in particle physics, though it is believed to become important again at very short scales (the Planck length). The conditions created in particle accelerators are similar to those at the time of the early universe. While particle physics offers insight to early universe physics, there is a need to understand gravity at extremes of large and short distances to further understand cosmology and the development of the universe. Gravitation: From the...

Timing Neutron Stars
ISBN: 9780792301011 / Angielski / Twarda / 774 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The idea for organizing an Advanced Study Institute devoted largely to neutron star timing arose independently in three places, at Istanbul, Garching and Amster- dam; when we became aware of each other's ideas we decided to join forces. The choice of a place for the Institute, in Turkey, appealed much to us all, and it was then quickly decided that Qeme would be an excellent spot. When the preparations for the Institute started, early in 1987, we could not have guessed how timely the subject actually was. Of course, the recently dis- covered QPO phenomena in accreting neutron stars and half a...

The Diffuse Interstellar Bands
ISBN: 9780792336297 / Angielski / Twarda / 415 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The mystery of the diffuse interstellar bands has been variously a curiosity, a co nundrum, and a nuisance for astronomers in the seven decades since the features were first noticed, but recently they have become a forefront issue in astrophysics. Ever since Paul Merrill, in a series of papers starting in 1934, pointed out the interstellar and unidentified nature of the bands, a Who's Who of twentieth century astronomers have tried their hands at solving the problem of identifying the carriers. Henry Norris Russell, Pol Swings, Otto Struve, Paul Ledoux, W. W. Morgan, Walter Adams, Jesse...
