  • A Statistical and Multi-wavelength Study of Star Formation in Galaxies

    by Corentin Schreiber ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis presents a pioneering method for gleaning the maximum information from the deepest images of the far-infrared universe obtained with the Herschel satellite, reaching galaxies fainter by an order of magnitude than in previous studies. Using these high-quality measurements, the author first demonstrates that the vast majority of galaxy star formation did not take place in merger-driven ... Read more

  • Introducing Stephen Hawking

    A Graphic Guide

    by J.P. McEvoy ...
    Series series Graphic Guides
    'An ideal introduction [to Stephen Hawking]' - Independent'Astonishingly comprehensive - clearer than Hawking himself' - FocusStephen Hawking was a world-famous physicist with a cameo in The Simpsons on his CV, but outside of his academic field his work was little understood. To the public he was a tragic figure - a brilliant scientist and author of the 9 million-copy-selling A Brief History of ... Read more

  • Special Relativity in General Frames

    From Particles to Astrophysics

    by Éric Gourgoulhon ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Special relativity is the basis of many fields in modern physics: particle physics, quantum field theory, high-energy astrophysics, etc. This theory is presented here by adopting a four-dimensional point of view from the start. An outstanding feature of the book is that it doesn’t restrict itself to inertial frames but considers accelerated and rotating observers. It is thus possible to treat ... Read more

  • Turbulence and Self-Organization

    Modeling Astrophysical Objects

    by Mikhail Ya Marov, Aleksander V. Kolesnichenko ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The book deals with the development of continual models of turbulent natural media. Such models serve as a ground for the statement and numerical evaluation of the key problems of the structure and evolution of the numerous astrophysical and geophysical objects. The processes of ordering (self-organization) in an originally chaotic turbulent medium are addressed and treated in detail with the use ... Read more

  • Chaos Detection and Predictability

    Edited by Charalampos (Haris) Skokos, Georg A. Gottwald, Jacques Laskar ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Distinguishing chaoticity from regularity in deterministic dynamical systems and specifying the subspace of the phase space in which instabilities are expected to occur is of utmost importance in as disparate areas as astronomy, particle physics and climate dynamics.To address these issues there exists a plethora of methods for chaos detection and predictability. The most commonly employed ... Read more

  • The Three-Body Problem and the Equations of Dynamics

    Poincaré’s Foundational Work on Dynamical Systems Theory

    by Henri Poincaré ...
    Translated by Bruce D Popp ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Here is an accurate and readable translation of a seminal article by Henri Poincaré that is a classic in the study of dynamical systems popularly called chaos theory. In an effort to understand the stability of orbits in the solar system, Poincaré applied a Hamiltonian formulation to the equations of planetary motion and studied these differential equations in the limited case of three bodies to ...

  • Globular Cluster Binaries and Gravitational Wave Parameter Estimation

    Challenges and Efficient Solutions

    by Carl-Johan Haster ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis presents valuable contributions to several aspects of the rapidly growing field of gravitational wave astrophysics. The potential sources of gravitational waves in globular clusters are analyzed using sophisticated dynamics simulations involving intermediate mass black holes and including, for the first time, high-order post-Newtonian corrections to the equations of motion. The thesis ... Read more

  • Dynamics of the Milky Way

    Tidal Streams and Extended Distribution Functions for the Galactic Disc

    by Jason Sanders ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This work presents a study of methods useful for modeling and understanding dynamical systems in the Galaxy. A natural coordinate system for the study of dynamical systems is the angle-action coordinate system. New methods for the approximation of the action-angle variables in general potentials are presented and discussed. These new tools are applied to the construction of dynamical models for ...

  • Searching for the Long-Duration Gamma-Ray Burst Progenitor

    by Robert Allan Mesler III ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Nominated as an outstanding thesis by the Department of Physics and Astronomy of the University of New Mexico, this thesis seeks to identify the gamma-ray burst (GRB) progenitor. GRBs are extragalactic explosions that briefly outshine entire galaxies, but the mechanism that can release that much energy over a < 100 second burst is still a mystery. The leading candidate for the GRB progenitor is ... Read more
