  • On the Shores of Titan's Farthest Sea

    A Scientific Novel

    de Michael Carroll ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Titan is practically a planet in its own right, with a diameter similar to that of Mercury, methane rainstorms, organic soot and ethane seas. All of the most detailed knowledge on the moon's geology, volcanology, meteorology, marine sciences and chemistry are gathered together here to paint a factually accurate hypothetical future of early human colonization on this strange world.The views from ...

  • Exoplanet Atmospheres

    Physical Processes

    de Sara Seager ...
    Series series Princeton Series in Astrophysics
    Over the past twenty years, astronomers have identified hundreds of extrasolar planets--planets orbiting stars other than the sun. Recent research in this burgeoning field has made it possible to observe and measure the atmospheres of these exoplanets. This is the first textbook to describe the basic physical processes--including radiative transfer, molecular absorption, and chemical processes- ... Leer más

  • SCIAMACHY - Exploring the Changing Earth’s Atmosphere

    Edición de Manfred Gottwald, Heinrich Bovensmann ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    SCIAMACHY, the SCanning Imaging Absorption spectroMeter for Atmospheric CHartographY, is a passive sensor for exploring the Earth’s atmosphere. It is part of the payload of the European Earth Observation mission ENVISAT, launched on 1 March 2002. SCIAMACHY observes absorption spectra of molecules from the UV (214 nm) to the short-wave infrared wavelength range (2386 nm) and derives the atmospheric ... Leer más

  • Characterizing Stellar and Exoplanetary Environments

    Edición de Maxim Khodachenko, Helmut Lammer ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    In this book an international group of specialists discusses studies of exoplanets subjected to extreme stellar radiation and plasma conditions. It is shown that such studies will help us to understand how terrestrial planets and their atmospheres, including the early Venus, Earth and Mars, evolved during the host star’s active early phase. The book presents an analysis of findings from Hubble ... Leer más

  • The Rainbow Sky

    An Exploration of Colors in the Solar System and Beyond

    de Tony Buick ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    W here do you start to write about colors in the universe? Do you look to the deepest ocean trenches on Earth, with their awesome bioluminescent creatures roaming the blackness of the abyss? And where do you finish? With the most distant galaxies in the cosmos? A difficult question, p- haps, but in between the two extremes, there is so much to marvel at that it really doesn’t matter where you ... Leer más

  • Carl Størmer

    Auroral Pioneer

    de Alv Egeland, William J. Burke ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This biography summarizes the seminal contributions to auroral and space science of Carl Størmer (1874 - 1957). He was the first to develop precise photographic methods to calculate heights and morphologies of diverse auroral forms during four solar cycles. Størmer independently devised numerical techniques to determine the trajectories of high-energy charged particles allowed and forbidden in the ... Leer más

  • Modelling the Upper Atmosphere of Gas-Giant Exoplanets Irradiated by Low-Mass Stars

    de Joshua Chadney ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This PhD thesis details the development of a new 1D ionospheric model to describe the upper atmospheres of extrasolar giant plants. The upper atmospheres of Hot Jupiters are subject to extreme radiation conditions that can result in rapid atmospheric escape. The composition and structure of these planets’ upper atmospheres are affected by high-energy emissions from the host star. The nature of ... Leer más
