Structures in the Universe by Exact Methods
ISBN: 9780521769143 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As the structures in our Universe are mapped out on ever larger scales, and with increasing detail, the use of inhomogeneous models is becoming an essential tool for analyzing and understanding them. This book reviews a number of important developments in the application of inhomogeneous solutions of Einstein s field equations to cosmology. It shows how inhomogeneous models can be employed to study the evolution of structures such as galaxy clusters and galaxies with central black holes, and to account for cosmological observations like supernovae dimming, the cosmic microwave background,...

Quasars, Redshifts and Controversies
ISBN: 9780521363143 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For twenty years, the author has contested the 'establishment' view of quasars as the most distant objects in the universe. In this book, Arp presents the original observations and fundamental data on quasars and galaxies, and explains why he has concluded that: far from being the most distant objects in the universe, quasars are associated in space with relatively nearby galaxies; quasars' enormous redshifts do not arise from the expansion of the universe, but rather are intrinsic properties of the quasars themselves; many galaxies show redshift anomalies related to quasars' redshifts;...

The Guide to the All-Embracing Realm of the Ultimate
ISBN: 9781448617272 / Angielski / Miękka / 566 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Is it that with grace, humor and style that we will describe all the realms of life, as well as answer the ultimate questions, some in seriously comedic adventures? We will it. Is the cause of the universe itself causeless? Yes, and we will learn why, just be-cause. Did the laws of the universe come from Nothing? Just about, but there is some further ado about near 'nothing'. Does everything amount to a total Nothing except for the quantum fluctuations of uncertainty? Certainly. Will we disprove the Supernatural? Naturally. What does the sum total of the information content of Everything add...

Scientific Exploits: : The Glorious, the Humorous, and the Serious (6x9)
ISBN: 9781449956967 / Angielski / Miękka / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Astounding scientific investigations from the past, present, and future. The 'dry' formulas from science books are depended on for a large portion of our existence, and while we may stand in awe at their deeper meaning and even enjoy some lab experiments, they don't always reveal the full and complete depth of what the scientists went through. The endeavors are ever insightful, often amazing, and some even approach the ridiculous. The scientific pioneers really had it rough. Scientists, like those of any discipline, can be doggedly eccentric in their quests. Sometimes the perseverance paid...

Relativitätstheorie
ISBN: 9783540673125 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Im Alter von 21 Jahren hat W. Pauli einen Handbuchartikel zur Relativitatstheorie verfasst, der bis heute gelesen und zitiert wird. Er ist wohl der beruhmteste Text zum Thema und wurde nicht zuletzt von A. Einstein begeistert gewurdigt. Die vorliegende Neuausgabe enthalt den Originalartikel sowie weitere, teilweise recht ausfuhrliche Erganzungen, die Pauli im Jahre 1956 fur die englische Ausgabe schrieb. Eine Reihe von Anmerkungen des Herausgebers dienen daruber hinaus als Lesehilfen und zeigen Verbindungen zu modernen Entwicklungen auf."

The Crowded Universe: The Race to Find Life Beyond Earth
ISBN: 9780465020393 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. We are nearing a turning point in our quest for life in the universe--we now have the capacity to detect Earth-like planets around other stars. But will we find any?
In The Crowded Universe, renowned astronomer Alan Boss argues that based on what we already know about planetary systems, in the coming years we will find abundant Earths, including many that are indisputably alive. Life is not only possible elsewhere in the universe, Boss argues--it is common. Boss describes how our ideas about planetary formation have changed radically in the past decade and brings readers up to date...

Cosmology
ISBN: 9780521141185 / Angielski / Miękka / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Professor Herman Bondi, one of the proponents of the Steady State Theory, presented this volume as an account that would establish cosmology as a distinct branch of physics. First published in 1952, just a few years after the term 'the Big Bang' was coined, it represents an important stage in the development of cosmology. With detailed discussions of different theories including Newtonian cosmology, relativistic cosmology and kinematic relativity, it gives a remarkable insight into scientific thought at this crucial time. It will be most useful to anyone with an interest in the history of...

Lectures on Cosmology: Accelerated Expansion of the Universe
ISBN: 9783642105975 / Angielski / Miękka / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The lectures that four authors present in this volume investigate core topics related to the accelerated expansion of the Universe. Accelerated expansion occured in the ?36 very early Universe - an exponential expansion in the in ationary period 10 s after the Big Bang. This well-established theoretical concept had rst been p- posed in 1980 by Alan Guth to account for the homogeneity and isotropy of the observable universe, and simultaneously by Alexei Starobinski, and has since then been developed by many authors in great theoretical detail. An accelerated expansion of the late Universe at...

Coevolution of Black Holes and Galaxies
ISBN: 9780521141567 / Angielski / Miękka / 500 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Black holes are among the most mysterious objects in the Universe. Weighing up to several billion Suns, massive black holes have long been suspected to be the central powerhouses of energetic phenomena such as quasars. This book contains papers by some of the most influential astrophysicists working in this exciting field. They not only provide spectacular proof of the long-standing paradigm, but unexpectedly reveal that these objects, far from being rare, inhabit the center of virtually every large galaxy.

The System of the Stars
ISBN: 9781108014168 / Angielski / Miękka / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Agnes Mary Clerke (1842 1907) published The System of the Stars in 1890 when she was a well-established popular science writer. The volume was intended to bring the educated public up to date with the progress made during the nineteenth century in the field of sidereal astronomy. The work was one of the first publications to be illustrated with astrophotography: it contains five astronomical photographs of nebulae. Such photographs had significant impact on the reception and popular acceptance of astrophotography as scientific data. In The System of the Stars, Clerke used the photographs to...

A Flaw in the Ointment: Explaining the Universe - The Difference Between How Things Are And How They Seem To Be
ISBN: 9780971209213 / Angielski / Miękka / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A Flaw in the Ointment is at once a challenging book and an enjoyable read, in which author Michael Perilstein presents a well-reasoned perspective on the nature of time and space, and the illusion of free will. Filled with engaging thought experiments, the volume provides ample exercise for the mind. Especially thought-provoking is the authors pointed critique of religion, which will remind some of Christopher Hitchins controversial God Is Not Good. Yet, the implications of Perilsteins theories reach well beyond a simple statement of atheism. Ultimately, those much broader ideas are at the...
