Auroral Plasma Physics
ISBN: 9781402009631 / Angielski / Twarda / 486 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The present 15th volume of the ISSI Space Science Series is devoted to Auroral Plasma Physics. The aurora is arguably the most intriguing phenomenon in space plasma physics. Not only is it the most spectacular manifestation of the Sun-Earth connection chain, but the underlying plasma processes are expected to be ubiqui tous in the plasma universe. Recognizing the enormous progress made over the last decade in the understanding of the physics of the auroral acceleration processes, it seemed timely to write a comprehensive and integrated book on the subject. Re cent advances concern the...

Tidal Friction and the Earth's Rotation II: Proceedings of a Workshop Held at the Centre for Interdisciplinary Research (Zif) of the University of Bie
ISBN: 9783540120117 / Angielski / Miękka / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the four years which elapsed between our first workshop on .Tidal Friction and the Earth's Rotation and the second, the proceedings of which are presented here, many of the disciplines involved made ad vances which we felt should be exchanged. We were encouraged by the good reception our first report met with. Of course, more insight often means more problems. Therefore, this volume contains new results and revisions of matters which previously appeared settled. We are certainly far from "final answers." For this reason, differing opinions on some issues are to be found in this book....

Tensile Fracturing in Rocks: Tectonofractographic and Electromagnetic Radiation Methods
ISBN: 9783642059872 / Angielski / Miękka / 570 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Tensile Fracturing in Rocks presents field observations on fracturing of sedim- tary rocks and granite outcrops from various provinces in three continents. It also combines results of recent experiments conducted at different laboratories around the world with current theories on fracturing. In treating faults, this book limits itself to faults that are associated with joint sets produced by definable causes and occasi- ally to cases where interaction between the two types of fracture faults and joints is not clear. The book s subject matter is divided over six chapters, which are briefly...

The Rotation of Sun and Stars
ISBN: 9783642099649 / Angielski / Miękka / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Sun and stars rotate in di?erent ways and at di?erent velocity rates.

The closest star to our Earth, the Sun, is a good laboratory to study in detail the rotation of a G star and allows to test new ideas and develop new techniques to study stellar rotation. More or less massive, more or lessevolved objects, however, can have averydi?erent rotation rate, structure and history. In recent years our understanding of the rotation of the Sun has greatly improved. The Sun has...

Continental Scientific Drilling: A Decade of Progress, and Challenges for the Future
ISBN: 9783642088308 / Angielski / Miękka / 366 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Scientific drilling is an indispensable tool of modern Earth science - search, as it provides the only means of obtaining direct information on processes operating at depth. Drilling allows for the determination of - situ properties of solid materials and fluids and permits testing of hypot- ses and models derived from surface observations. In addition, drill holes may be used as a natural laboratory for experiments and as observatories for long-term monitoring of on-going active processes. Earth drilling, therefore, plays a critical role in scientific research directed towards - proved...
