Book Description
The human curiosity about the cosmos has historically inspired countless discoveries and innovations. This book, "Parallel Galactic Memory: The Layers of Time in the Universe and Cosmic Archives," represents an extension of this eternal quest to understand the universe's secrets and its enigmatic aspects. It aims to offer a comprehensive exploration of the intricate relationship between time, galactic memory, and cosmic consciousness. Our understanding of the universe's origins and the birth of time is in constant evolution. From the fundamental theories about the Big Bang to the role of time layers in the cosmos, the topics discussed here illuminate some of the most profound and exciting questions in science. This book goes beyond theoretical and scientific debates to offer insights into the future role of cosmic memory and the shaping of galactic libraries. Each chapter can be seen as a thought experiment designed to push the boundaries of our understanding of the universe's complexity. Themes such as the relationship between knowledge and consciousness, time travel, and galactic memory not only delve into scientific discovery but also explore philosophical and ethical questions. The book aims to guide readers on a daring journey to explore cosmic knowledge. In this journey, we pause at the intersections of the past, present, and future, contemplating a broad spectrum of ideas—from the information-gathering processes of galaxies to the traces of lost civilizations. Questions such as whether the universe itself possesses a form of consciousness and the ways conscious minds might access galactic memory are central to our exploration. In writing this book, I have endeavored to integrate information from a variety of sources and disciplines. Each chapter is supported by scientific data and in-depth analysis, offering readers a new perspective on the universe and conscious cosmos. This comprehensive work is intended to inspire and inform those seeking to understand the deep layers of cosmic knowledge. I hope this book serves as both an inspiring and informative resource for anyone dedicated to uncovering the mysteries of the cosmos. As we embark on this journey together, I look forward to the possibility of this work being the beginning of many discoveries yet to come. Thank you for joining me on this exploration. There are many more secrets to be uncovered in the depths of the cosmos, and I hope this book marks the start of that journey.

Dark Matter, Missing Planets and New Comets
Author: Tom Van Flandern
Publisher: North Atlantic Books
ISBN: 1556432682
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 553
Book Description
Tom Van Flandern's book adds a new dimension to cosmology--not only does it present a novel approach to timeless issues, it stands up to the closest scientific scrutiny. Even the most respected scientists today will readily admit that the Big Bang Theory is full of holes. But it takes a new look, like Dark Matter, Missing Planets, and New Comets, to explain not only why the theory is wrong but what to substitute in its place. If you are curious about such things as the nature of matter and the origin of the solar system, but feel inadequately equipped to grasp what modern science has to say about such things, read this book. You will not get the all too common condescending attempt to water down the `mysteries' of modern science into a form intelligible to little non scientist you, but rather a straightforward new theory, logically derived in front of your eyes, which challenges the roots of many of today's complex accepted paradigms, yet whose essence is simple enough to be thoroughly communicated to the intelligent layman without "losing it in the translation."

Galaxies
Author: Roger John Tayler
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521367103
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
Galaxies are large systems of stars, some of which contain interstellar gas and dust. They also contain much invisible matter, which may be in the form of weakly interacting elementary particles. In this introductory textbook, the first chapter introduces the study of galaxies. This is followed by two chapters on observations of galaxies, including our own. There are then three chapters on galactic structure: the manner in which motions of stars determine galactic shape, the determination of galactic masses, and the structure of discs in spirals. Galactic evolution, especially changes in chemical composition over time, is covered. The book concludes with a discussion of the origin of galaxies and their relation to more general questions in cosmology. The book includes mathematical presentation where this enables the discussion to be quantitative.

Secular Evolution of Galaxies
Author: Jesús Falcón-Barroso
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1107035279
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 657
Book Description
The formation and evolution of galaxies is one of the most important topics in modern astrophysics. Secular evolution refers to the relatively slow dynamical evolution due to internal processes induced by a galaxy's spiral arms, bars, galactic winds, black holes and dark matter haloes. It plays an important role in the evolution of spiral galaxies with major consequences for galactic bulges, the transfer of angular momentum, and the distribution of a galaxy's constituent stars, gas and dust. This internal evolution is in turn the key to understanding and testing cosmological models of galaxy formation and evolution. Based on the twenty-third Winter School of the Canary Islands Institute of Astrophysics, this volume presents reviews from nine world-renowned experts on the observational and theoretical research into secular processes, and what these processes can tell us about the structure and formation of galaxies. The volume provides a firm grounding for graduate students and early career researchers working on galactic dynamics and galaxy evolution.

Formation and Evolution of Galaxy Bulges (IAU S245)
Author: International Astronomical Union. Symposium
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521874670
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 510
Book Description
Bulges lie at the heart of most galaxies, the building blocks of our universe. With a selection of reviews and topical presentations, IAU Symposium 245 provides an up-to-date overview of our knowledge on galaxy bulges, and a concise introduction to all current research on the subject. The structure, dynamics, and stellar populations of galaxy bulges, both near and far, are analysed through state-of-the-art observations. The leading models for the formation and evolution of galaxy bulges are described in detail, and the constraints observations put on these are dissected. Particular emphasis is placed on exploring evidence for both hierarchical merging and secular processes. Special attention is also devoted to disentangling the complex web relating galaxy bulges and central supermassive black holes, and on the lessons learned from our exquisite knowledge of the bulge of our own Milky Way. This volume is the best one-stop reference on galaxy bulges currently available.

The Nature of Dusty Star-Forming Galaxies
Author: William Cowley
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319667483
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 221
Book Description
This thesis combines a theoretical model of galaxy formation with a treatment of the radiative transfer in the titular dusty star-forming galaxies. Embedding this within the well-established ΛCDM (Lambda cold dark matter) cosmology, the author was able to simulate galaxy populations from which realistic observational images were synthesised. Based on further analysis, he shows that there is a good correspondence with observations from new instruments such as the SCUBA2 bolometric camera and the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) interferometer, and reveals some novel aspects of this exciting galaxy population. In particular, he shows that blending of these galaxies in the imaging produces an artificial enhancement in their clustering, which he dubs “blending bias”. This implies that the host dark matter halo masses for these galaxies have previously been significantly overestimated. He also presents amongst the first predictions from a galaxy formation model for observations of these galaxies that will be made by the James Webb Space Telescope (the successor to the Hubble Space Telescope).
