The Origin of the Galaxy and Local Group
Author: Joss Bland-Hawthorn
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642417205
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
This volume contains the updated and expanded lecture notes of the 37th Saas-Fee Advanced Course organised by the Swiss Society for Astrophysics and Astronomy. It offers the most comprehensive and up to date review of one of the hottest research topics in astrophysics - how our Milky Way galaxy formed. Joss Bland-Hawthorn & Ken Freeman lectured on Near Field Cosmology - The Origin of the Galaxy and the Local Group. Francesca Matteucci’s chapter is on Chemical evolution of the Milky Way and its Satellites. As designed by the SSAA, books in this series – and this one too – are targeted at graduate and PhD students and young researchers in astronomy, astrophysics and cosmology. Lecturers and researchers entering the field will also benefit from the book.

Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 9788122406603
Category : Astrophysics
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Discoveries In Astronomy And Astrophysics Have Brought Out Several Outstanding Problems And Puzzles. For Resolving These New Inputs From Physics May Be Required. There Exist Several Centers With Excellent Instruments And Many New Instruments Will Be Developed In The Next Few Years. Similarly Several Satellites Are In Orbit And More Are Being Planned For Future Astronomical Studies. Clearly Astronomy And Astrophysics Will Provide Great Opportunities For An Inquisitive Mind To Do First Rate Research Work.There Is A Good Scope For Carrying Out Path Breaking Work In Astronomy, Astrophysics And Space Sciences. To Attract Students And Researchers To This Exciting Frontier, It Is Necessary To Provide Them A Strong Academic Foundation. Astrophysics: A Modern Perspective Is An Attempt In This Direction. This Book Has Evolved Out Of A Series Of Lectures Delivered At Two Winter Schools In Astronomy And Astrophysics Organized By The Tata Institute Of Fundamental Research (Tifr), Bombay. Special Effort Has Been Made To Highlight Some Of The Challenging And Unsolved Problems From The Observational And Theoretical Points Of View.All The Contributors To This Volume Are Well Known Scientists Of Tifr And Have Made Significant And Lasting Contributions In Their Respective Fields. Each Chapter Develops The Subject From Basic Considerations Of Physics And Goes On To The Present Day Understanding. Some Of The Important Problems Facing Astronomers And Astrophysicists Today Are Highlighted Throughout The Book. The Close Interaction Between Astronomers, Astrophysicists And Physicists Has Also Been Brought Out. It Is Hoped That This Approach Will Attract More Students And Research Workers To The Fascinating Area Of Astronomy And Astrophysics.

Black Holes
Author: Mario Livio
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139495674
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
Black holes, once considered to be of purely theoretical interest, play an important role in observational astronomy and a range of astrophysical phenomena. This volume is based on a meeting held at the Space Telescope Science Institute, which explored the many aspects of black hole astrophysics. Written by world experts in areas of stellar-mass, intermediate-mass and supermassive black holes, these review papers provide an up-to-date overview of developments in this field. Topics discussed range from black hole entropy and the fate of information to supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies, and from the possibility of producing black holes in collider experiments to the measurements of black hole spins. This is an invaluable resource for researchers currently working in the field, and for graduate students interested in this active and growing area of research.
