An Introduction to String Theory and D-Brane Dynamics
ISBN: 9781860944277 / Angielski / Twarda / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This invaluable book provides a quick introduction to the rudiments of perturbative string theory and a detailed introduction to the more current topic of D-brane dynamics. The presentation is very pedagogical, with much of the technical detail streamlined. The rapid but highly coherent introduction to the subject is perhaps what distinguishes this book from other string theory or D-brane books. The material is based on mini-courses delivered by the author at various summer schools in theoretical high energy physics, so its actual level has been appropriately tested.

Optics of Cosmic Dust I
ISBN: 9781904868231 / Angielski / Miękka / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The optics of small particles are useful in the interpretation of observational phenomena related to extinction, scattering and emission of radiation by dust grains in space. This review presents three components of dust modelling: Optical constants; Light scattering theories and models. The author aims to show how the general laws of the optics of dust particleswork and to highlight the information about cosmic dust. Part II will be dedicated to the consideration of scattered radiation, dust absorption and emission, radiation pressure and dust properties.

God and Forms in Plato
ISBN: 9781930972018 / Angielski / Miękka / 279 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A collection of dovetailing essays which together interpret and assess the chief arguments and texts which make up Plato's cosmology. It is critically sympathetic to the Platonic project, at least to the extent that it argues that many features of the Platonic cosmology are more intelligible and coherent than usually supposed by critics.

Fakhr-Al-Dīn Al-Rāzī And Thomas Aquinas on the Question of the Eternity of the World
ISBN: 9789004124806 / Angielski / Twarda / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume examines the approaches of Fakhr-al-Dīn al-Rāzī (d. 1209) and Thomas Aquinas (d. 1274) to the question of the eternity of the world, which was one of the most heated issues of debate between theologians and philosophers in the Middle Ages. The first chapter of the book gives some background to the discussion from Greek philosophy, early Judaeo-Christian and Muslim traditions. The second and the third chapters discuss the approaches of Rāzī and Aquinas respectively to the question of the eternity of the world. The last chapter compares their approaches,...

Cosmological Special Relativity: Structure of Space, Time and Velocity
ISBN: 9789810230791 / Angielski / Twarda / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume deals with special relativity theory and its applications to cosmology. It presents Einstein's theory of space and time in detail, and describes the large-scale structure of space, time and velocity as a new cosmological special relativity. A cosmological Lorentz-like transformation, which relates events at different cosmic times, is derived and applied. A new law of addition of cosmic times is obtained, and the inflation of the space at the early universe is derived, both from the cosmological transformations. The book should be of interest to cosmologists, astrophysicists,...

2001: A Spacetime Odyssey, Procs of the Inaugural Conf of the Michigan Center for Theoretical Physics
ISBN: 9789810248062 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Two theories revolutionized the 20th century view of space and time: Einstein's general theory of relativity and quantum mechanics. Their union has given rise to elementary particle theories with extra spacetime dimensions, the inflationary model of big bang cosmology, the hypothesis of dark matter in the universe, the discovery of radiation from quantum black holes, and the fuzzy spacetime geometry of superstrings and M-theory. In this work, experts present developments in cosmology, theoretical physics and mathematics, and share their thoughts on the future of spacetime physics.

ISBN: 9789810248710 / Angielski / Twarda / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A presentation of results on the largest fractal structures in the universe. It seeks to guide the reader, in a simple way, to the frontiers of astronomy, explaining how fractals appear in cosmic physics, from our solar system to the megafractals in deep space. It also offers a personal view of the history of the idea of self-similarity and of cosmological principles, from Plato's ideal architecture of the heavens to Mandelbrot's fractals in the modern physical cosmos. In addition, it discusses the great fractal debate in astronomy (after Luciano Pietronero's first fractal analysis of the...

Space-Time-Matter: Modern Higher-Dimensional Cosmology (2nd Edition)
ISBN: 9789812706324 / Angielski / Twarda / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Albert Einstein, together with Theodor Kaluza and Oskar Klein, realized that extra dimensions can be used to unify the different fields of physics, as well as unifying the fields with their material sources. In fact, it was Einstein's dream to transpose the ?A‡Abase wood?A‡A of the matter term in his field equations to the “marble” of the geometrical term. During his lifetime, this kind of unified theory achieved only partial success. But the modern approach, outlined in this bestseller, is elegant and agrees with all the classical tests. The basic idea is to...

Our Universe came from a primordial state 13.7 billion years ago, with no matter and very little energy. In other words, it was almost empty. Where do the stars and galaxies, and everything else in the present universe come from then? This book provides an answer to this question, and explains the observations and evidence behind the assertion.
