Research at the Intersection of the Physical and Life Sciences
ISBN: 9780309147514 / Angielski / Miękka / 106 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Traditionally, the natural sciences have been divided into two branches: the biological sciences and the physical sciences. Today, an increasing number of scientists are addressing problems lying at the intersection of the two. These problems are most often biological in nature, but examining them through the lens of the physical sciences can yield exciting results and opportunities. For example, one area producing effective cross-discipline research opportunities centers on the dynamics of systems. Equilibrium, multistability, and stochastic behavior--concepts familiar to physicists and...

The Expanding Universe: Astronomy's 'Great Debate', 1900-1931
ISBN: 9780521130066 / Angielski / Miękka / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the years between 1900 and 1931 astronomers witnessed three startling changes in their view of the Universe. First, the accepted value of the size of the star system, which increased by a factor of ten; secondly, evidence forced the acceptance of the fact that there are other star systems beyond our own Galaxy; and lastly, that observation of these external galaxies disclosed the expansion of the Universe. This book, originally published in 1982, describes and explains in detail these shifts in opinion, considering them in the light of theories and ideas on the nature of the Universe, were...

Studies of Interstellar Dust
ISBN: 9783639223224 / Angielski / Miękka / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Dust grains scatter as well as absorb UV radiation from stars. The absorbed radiation is re-emitted at longer wavelengths. Diffuse UV radiation has been observed from different regions in the Galaxy. The main contributor of this radiation is the scattering by interstellar dust grains. Here, we have attempted to model this radiation and derive the basic properties of dust grains in three regions of the Galaxy, namely Ophiuchus, Coalsack and Orion. For the Ophiuchus region we have spectra from the Voyager spacecraft. Since the observed locations are of low optical depth we have assumed a single...

Physics of Space Plasma Activity
ISBN: 9780521142366 / Angielski / Miękka / 524 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Space plasma is so hot that the atoms break up into charged particles which then become trapped and stored in magnetic fields. When critical conditions are reached the magnetic field breaks up, releasing a large amount of energy and causing dramatic phenomena. The largest space plasma activity events observed in the solar system occur on the Sun, when coronal mass ejections expel several billion tons of plasma mass into space. This book provides a coherent and detailed treatment of the physical background of large plasma eruptions in space. It provides the background necessary for dealing...
