A General Catalog of HI Observations of Galaxies
Author: W.K. Huchtmeier
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1441984836
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 367
Book Description
A catalog of all published HI observations of external galaxies has been compiled. Its construction is briefly described. It contains almost 20,000 entries for over 10,000 galaxies based on more than 570 references. Here the reference catalog is presented. It contains the HI data basically just as they were originally published. No numerical conversions were made and no error correction was attempted.

Fundamentals of Galaxy Dynamics, Formation and Evolution
Author: Ignacio Ferreras
Publisher: UCL Press
ISBN: 1911307614
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
Galaxies, along with their underlying dark matter halos, constitute the building blocks of structure in the Universe. Of all fundamental forces, gravity is the dominant one that drives the evolution of structures from small density seeds at early times to the galaxies we see today. The interactions among myriads of stars, or dark matter particles, in a gravitating structure produce a system with fascinating connotations to thermodynamics, with some analogies and some fundamental differences. Ignacio Ferreras presents a concise introduction to extragalactic astrophysics, with emphasis on stellar dynamics, and the growth of density fluctuations in an expanding Universe. Additional chapters are devoted to smaller systems (stellar clusters) and larger ones (galaxy clusters). Fundamentals of Galaxy Dynamics, Formation and Evolution is written for advanced undergraduates and beginning postgraduate students, providing a useful tool to get up to speed in a starting research career. Some of the derivations for the most important results are presented in detail to enable students appreciate the beauty of maths as a tool to understand the workings of galaxies. Each chapter includes a set of problems to help the student advance with the material.

A Survey of Radial Velocities in the Zodiacal Dust Cloud
Author: Brian May
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 0387777067
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 231
Book Description
In the summer and autumn of 2006 I read several interviews with Brian May in which he mentioned his desire to complete the PhD that he had abandoned in 1974. I looked up the papers he had published while a PhD student, which were on spectroscopic studies of the motion of the dust responsible for the zodiacal light, and felt that there was a basis for a thesis. Since he had been a student at Imperial, I knew, as Head of the Astrophysics Group at Imperial, that it would be good for the Group if he came and worked with us. I got in touch with him by email and suggested he come and talk about it. He replied enthusiastically and said that he was working on typing up what he had completed by 1974. I gradually realized that I was the only staff member at Imperial who had previously worked on zodiacal dust, so that I would have to act as his supervisor. Eventually we met and I tried to assess whether he would be able to find time for the huge amount of work that finishing off a thesis involves, particularly if it has not been touched for over 30 years. Since some of Brian’s emails were coming from the recording studio I knew there was strong competition for his time.
