Before the Big Bang: The Prehistory of the Universe
ISBN: 9780312680282 / Angielski / Miękka / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. According to a recent survey, the most popular question about science from the general public was: what came before the Big Bang? We all know on some level what the Big Bang is, but we don't know how it became the accepted theory, or how we might know what came before. In Before the Big Bang, Brian Clegg (the critically acclaimed author of Upgrade Me and The God Effect) explores the history of this remarkable concept. From the earliest creation myths, through Hershel's realization that the Milky Way was one of many galaxies, to on-going debates about Black Holes, this...

The Theory of Despace
ISBN: 9781448679751 / Angielski / Miękka / 146 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Theory of Despace is the most innovative cosmology with an opposite concept with respect to normal ones. This theory uses a very simple model to define the world and various kinds of forces and fields such as gravitation, electric field and magnetic field. Meanwhile, a new model of the photon was also built in this book. According to this new model of photon, we can describe the behavior and the effect of the photon to matter easily. The basic concept of this theory is that there is only one thing in the world - "space." The place without "space" forms what named "matter." This is totally...

Dark Energy: Dark Matter and Dark Flow
ISBN: 9781452829524 / Angielski / Miękka / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Dark Energy by Alex J. Morrey, BSc, offers a staggeringly different interpretation of reality, melding science with religion to show plausible reasons for the most implausible and supernatural occurrences. Reality is nothing more than space and time, Morrey argues, and because humans have a collective agreement to perceive the same matter, and our world, in the same way, we often miss hints of the miraculous in our midst. Beautifully written and easy to read, Dark Energy contemplates a bold new world where the supernatural is based in rational science, and the possibilities are endless.

Our Stories: Essays on Life, Death, and Free Will
ISBN: 9780199767236 / Angielski / Miękka / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this collection of essays on the metaphysical issues pertaining to death, the meaning of life, and freedom of the will, John Martin Fischer argues (against the Epicureans) that death can be a bad thing for the individual who dies. He defends the claim that something can be a bad thing--a misfortune--for an individual, even if he never experiences it as bad (and even if he does not any longer exist). Fischer also defends the commonsense asymmetry in our attitudes toward death and prenatal nonexistence: we are indifferent to the time before we are born, but we regret that we do not live...

Photographs of Stars, Star-Clusters and Nebulae: Together with Information Concerning the Instruments and the Methods Employed in the Pursuit of Celes
ISBN: 9781108015226 / Angielski / Miękka / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A geologist and fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society, Isaac Roberts (1829 1904) made significant contributions to the photography of star-clusters and nebulae. By championing reflecting rather than refracting telescopes, Roberts was able to perceive previously unnoticed star-clusters, and was the first to identify the spiral shape of the Great Andromeda Nebula. Roberts' use of a telescope for photographing stars, and a long exposure time, provided greater definition of stellar phenomena than previously used hand-drawings. Although Roberts' conclusions about the nature of the nebulae he...

The Future of the Universe
ISBN: 9781849969680 / Angielski / Miękka / 175 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Many excellent books have been written about the past history of the universe and of the various objects--galaxies, stars, planets-- to be found in it. All the exciting events from the original Big Bang to the appearance of human beings have been carefully recorded. Much less has been written about what comes next. What will happen to all these galaxies, stars, and planets in the future? And what will happen to us, and to any other intelligent life in the u- verse? It is obviously more dif?cult to examine the future than the past, but there are ways of doing it. Not everything in the universe...

Dynamical Systems and Cosmology
ISBN: 9789048163298 / Angielski / Miękka / 195 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Dynamical systems theory is especially well-suited for determining the possible asymptotic states (at both early and late times) of cosmological models, particularly when the governing equations are a finite system of autonomous ordinary differential equations.
In this book we discuss cosmological models as dynamical systems, with particular emphasis on applications in the early Universe. We point out the important role of self-similar models. We review the asymptotic properties of spatially homogeneous perfect fluid models in general relativity. We then discuss results concerning scalar...

The last few years saw the development of a plethora of experiments and surveys probing the cosmological parameters. The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), the Supernovae (SN) searches and galaxy cluster data, namely via X-rays and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect, are among the most prolific giving detailed information about the geometry, age and structure formation of the Universe. The program of the WS-HCP workshop was aimed at highlighting the scientific achievements and to discuss the new environment of "precision cosmology" within these three probes. The objective was to analyse... The last few years saw the development of a plethora of experiments and surveys probing the cosmological parameters. The Cosmic Microwave Backgroun... |

Supermassive Black Holes in the Distant Universe
ISBN: 9789048166626 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Quasars, and the menagerie of other galaxies with "unusual nuclei," now collectively known as Active Galactic Nuclei or AGN, have, in one form or another, sparked the interest of astronomers for over 60 years. The only known mechanism that can explain the staggering amounts of energy emitted by the innermost regions of these systems is gravitational energy release by matter falling towards a supermassive black hole --- a black hole whose mass is millions to billions of times the mass of our Sun. AGN emit radiation at all wavelengths. X-rays originating at a distance of a few times the event...

Professor Kopal, who devoted 60 years of his scientific life to the exploration of close binary systems, initiated a breakthrough in this field with his description of binary components as non-spherical stars deformed by gravity, with surfaces following Roche equipotentials. Such knowledge triggered the development of... An international conference entitled "Zdenek Kopal's Binary Star Legacy" was held on the occasion of the late Professor Kopal's 90th birthday in hi... |

Elements of String Cosmology
ISBN: 9780521187985 / Angielski / Miękka / 570 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The standard cosmological picture of our Universe emerging from a 'big bang' leaves open many fundamental questions which string theory, a unified theory of all forces of nature, should be able to answer. This 2007 text was the first dedicated to string cosmology, and contains a pedagogical introduction to the basic notions of the subject. It describes the possible scenarios suggested by string theory for the primordial evolution of our Universe. It discusses the main phenomenological consequences of these scenarios, stresses their differences from each other, and compares them to the more...
