Spectroscopy and Radiative Transfer of Planetary Atmospheres
ISBN: 9780199662104 / Angielski / Twarda / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Spectroscopy and radiative transfer are rapidly growing fields within atmospheric and planetary science with implications for weather, climate, biogeochemical cycles, air quality on Earth, as well as the physics and evolution of planetary atmospheres in our solar system and beyond. Remote sensing and modeling atmospheric composition of the Earth, of other planets in our solar system, or of planets orbiting other stars require detailed knowledge of how radiation and matter interact in planetary atmospheres. This includes knowledge of how stellar or thermal radiation propagates through...

General Relativity: Not Exact, But a Useful Approximation
ISBN: 9781541220959 / Angielski / Miękka / 28 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In 1859, the French mathematician and astronomer Urbain Le Verrier discovered that the perihelion of the orbit of the planet Mercury was not where Newton's law of gravity had predicted it to be. He blamed the discrepancy on a flaw in Newton's law. An explanation of this discrepancy was offered by Einstein in 1916 through his theory of general relativity. A century later, the true cause of this discrepancy was found: The planets and asteroids which orbit the Sun experience the gravitational attraction of only about 99.99% of the mass of the Sun. Thus they behave as if there is an apparent...

A Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief Models of Planet Formation
ISBN: 9781786342720 / Angielski / Twarda / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Nebula Theory, at present the standard model of planet formation, proposes that a star and planets are derived from a single spinning nebula. Woolfson here introduces an alternative, the Capture Theory, in which planets are produced from a protostar tidally disrupted by a condensed star which 'captures' most of the formed planets into orbits.

Unification of the Eleven Boson Interactions Based on 'rotations of Interactions': New Su(3)Xu(64) Symmetry and 'interactions of Interactions, ' Elect
ISBN: 9780998457536 / Angielski / Miękka / 56 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is a supplement to Unification of the Seven Boson Interactions based on the Riemann-Christoffel Curvature Tensor ... (I). Together these works provide a unified picture of the boson sector of The Theory of Everything: vector bosons, gravitation and Higgs bosons. The boson sector unification is based on the Riemann-Christoffel tensor, which must include all interactions in its description of our curved space-time. The boson lagrangian part of The Theory of Everything is constructed from the Riemann-Christoffel tensor in a manner similar to the construction of the Theory...

Exploring the Invisible Universe: From Black Holes to Superstrings
ISBN: 9789813220638 / Angielski / Miękka / 488 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. 'Why'? Why is the world, the Universe the way it is? Is space infinitely large? How small is small? What happens when one continues to divide matter into ever smaller pieces? Indeed, what is matter? Is there anything else besides what can be seen? Pursuing the questions employing the leading notions of physics, one soon finds that the tangible and visible world dissolves — rather unexpectedly — into invisible things and domains that are beyond direct perception. A remarkable feature of our Universe is that most of its constituents turn out to be invisible, and this fact is...

The Little Book of Black Holes
ISBN: 9780691163727 / Angielski / Twarda / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Dive into a mind-bending exploration of the physics of black holes Black holes, predicted by Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity more than a century ago, have long intrigued scientists and the public with their bizarre and fantastical properties. Although Einstein understood that black holes were mathematical solutions to his equations, he never accepted their physical reality--a viewpoint many shared. This all changed in the 1960s and 1970s, when a deeper conceptual understanding of black holes developed just as new observations revealed the existence of quasars...
