Dynamics of Young Star Clusters and Associations: Saas-Fee Advanced Course 42. Swiss Society for Astrophysics and Astronomy
ISBN: 9783662472897 / Angielski / Twarda / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Where do most stars (and the planetary systems that surround them) in the Milky Way form? What determines whether a young star cluster remains bound (such as an open or globular cluster), or disperses to join the field stars in the disc of the Galaxy? These questions not only impact understanding of the origins of stars and planetary systems like our own (and the potential for life to emerge that they represent), but also galaxy formation and evolution, and ultimately the story of star formation over cosmic time in the Universe. This volume will help readers understand our current... Where do most stars (and the planetary systems that surround them) in the Milky Way form?

Physics of Collisionless Shocks: Space Plasma Shock Waves
ISBN: 9781489990648 / Angielski / Miękka / 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...

Arrow of Time and Reality: In Search of a Conciliation
ISBN: 9789810230227 / Angielski / Twarda / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What is reality? what is the role of human consciousness in the shaping of such a concept? these questions are as old as mankind and gave rise to the 'mind-matter' dualism which preoccupied so many physicists: Schrodinger, Wigner, etc. This book considers the problem within the realms of contemporary physics, and shows that it could be related so that of ultimate entities. The author develops the viewpoint according to which human thinking activities are fruit of the Cosmos and of its combinatorial activity. Ultimate entities, the bricks out of which out universe is made, could be hidden, as...
