From Luminous Hot Stars to Starburst Galaxies
ISBN: 9781107407732 / Angielski / Miękka / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Before exploding as supernovae, luminous hot stars live out their lives of a few million years with prodigious outputs of radiation and stellar winds, dramatically affecting both their evolution and environments. This book offers a detailed introduction to the astrophysics of these massive stars and how they contribute to the evolution of galaxies and starburst phenomena. HII galaxies, their connection to starburst galaxies, and the contribution of starburst phenomena to galaxy evolution through superwinds, are thoroughly explored. The authors conclude with the wider cosmological...

Ultraviolet and X-Ray Spectroscopy of the Solar Atmosphere
ISBN: 9781107407916 / Angielski / Miękka / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The solar atmosphere, above the Sun's surface layers, reaches mega-kelvin temperatures and high levels of dynamic activity through processes involving a pervading magnetic field. This book explores one of the principal means of understanding the solar atmosphere, its ultraviolet and soft X-ray emission. The ultraviolet and X-ray spectra of the Sun's atmosphere provide valuable information about its nature - the heat and density of its various parts, its dynamics, and chemical composition. The principles governing spectral line and continuous emission, and how spectral studies lead to...

Higgs Boson Particle and Impact on Cosmology
ISBN: 9781478381648 / Angielski / Miękka / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It was announced on 4th July 2012 that the Higgs boson had been discovered in the CERN particle collider in Geneva, Switzerland. Scientists at the world's biggest atom smasher hailed the discovery of "the missing cornerstone of physics," cheering the apparent end of a decades-long quest for a new subatomic particle called the Higgs boson, or "God particle," which could help explain why all matter has mass and crack open a new realm of subatomic science. As the technical findings were announced by two independent teams involving more than 5,000 researchers, the usually sedate corridors of the...

Instruments and Methods for the Radio Detection of High Energy Cosmic Rays
ISBN: 9783642336591 / Angielski / Twarda / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Cosmic rays consist of elementary particles with enormous energy which originate from outside our solar system and constantly hit the Earth's atmosphere. Where do these cosmic rays originate? How does nature accelerate the cosmic-ray particles to energies with orders of magnitude beyond the limits of manmade particle accelerators? What can we learn by measuring the interactions of the cosmic rays with the atmosphere? Digital radio-antenna arrays offer a promising, complementary measurement method for high-energy cosmic rays. This thesis reports on substantial advances in the development of...

Unified Mind Theory
ISBN: 9781105940194 / Angielski / Twarda / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The "Unified Mind Theory" falls into 2 parts: the physical and the spiritual Aspect of Creation. The term "Creation" assumes the existence of a Creator, which means if God exists, Creation must be perfect & complete, because God is not subject to time. However, should it be unfinished in some peoples mind, then Creation cannot be perfect and complete. We confirm "God does not change His Mind", nor is He subject to any dimension of His own Creation. The physical aspect is that part in us which is strictly mechanical. It is void of life, and it is based on math. This gives us a structure of...

Physics of Collisionless Shocks: Space Plasma Shock Waves
ISBN: 9781461460985 / Angielski / Twarda / 500 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The present book provides a contemporary systematic treatment of shock waves in high-temperature collisionless plasmas as are encountered in near Earth space and in Astrophysics. It consists of two parts. Part I develops the complete theory of shocks in dilute hot plasmas under the assumption of absence of collisions among the charged particles when the interaction is mediated solely by the self-consistent electromagnetic fields. Such shocks are naturally magnetised implying that the magnetic field plays an important role in their evolution and dynamics. This part treats subcritical shocks...
