Multipolar Universe?

~~237,84€~~ 214,06€ 10% OFF

 This volume presents cutting-edge research on one of modern cosmology''s most intriguing challenges: the observed dipolar anisotropies that appear to conflict with the standard CDM cosmological model. Through its contributed chapters, the book extensively examines multiple lines of evidence suggesting directional preferences in various cosmological observations, from cosmic expansion to galaxy cluster distributions.The work explores two fundamental possibilities: either these dipoles represent genuine spacetime anisotropy, challenging the cosmological principle itself, or they indicate a need to revise our interpretation of the cosmological data and the current models of large-scale structure formation. Both scenarios carry profound implications for our understanding of the universe''s fundamental nature and evolution.This comprehensive collection bridges theoretical frameworks with observational evidence, offering fresh perspectives on cosmic isotropy, dark energy, and structure formation. The volume includes detailed analyses of various dipolar signals, their potential systematic origins, and theoretical frameworks that might accommodate these observations. The proceedings appeal to a broad audience of researchers working on both theoretical and observational cosmology, with experience and expertise levels ranging from that of senior researchers to those of postgraduate students. The same is also true for astrophysicists and physicists with expertise other than cosmology.

European Conference On Laboratory Astrophysics Ecla2020 - The Interplay Of Dust, Ice, And Gas In Space

~~198,09€~~ 158,47€ 20% OFF + 5% CARD

 This volume contains the proceedings of a conference on laboratory astrophysics, which gathered a broad interdisciplinary community of astrophysicists, physicists, chemists, and geophysicists. It provides an update on outstanding results in this research field, the presentation of new laboratory developments, and the recent and expected to come space missions and other astronomical observatories with their specific needs for laboratory and theoretical studies.<div>Understanding the interplay between dust, ice, and gas during the star lifecycle as well as in planet forming regions and the Solar System is a vast topic in relation with space exploration and astronomical observations. It also strongly relies on laboratory astrophysics activities and chemical modelling in order to simulate the formation and evolution of matter in space. This book provides researchers and graduate students with a valuable account of the current state of this fascinating discipline.</div>

Expanding Worldviews: Astrobiology, Big History And Cosmic Perspectives

~~264,34€~~ 211,47€ 20% OFF + 5% CARD

 This book collates papers presented at two international conferences (held at the Australian National University in 2018 and Birkbeck College London in 2019) exploring the relationships between big history and astrobiology and their wider implications for society. These two relatively new academic disciplines aim to integrate human history with the wider history of the universe and the search for life elsewhere. The book will show that, despite differences in emphasis, big history and astrobiology share much in common, especially their interdisciplinary approaches and the cosmic and evolutionary perspectives that they both engender.Specifically, the book addresses the unified, all-embracing, nature of knowledge, the impact of big history on humanity and the world at large, the possible impact of SETI on astrobiology and big history, the cultural signature of Earth’s inhabitants beyond our own planet, and the political implications of a planetary worldview. The principal readership is envisaged to comprise scholars working in the fields of astrobiology, big history and space exploration interested in forging interdisciplinary links between these diverse topics, together with educators, and a wider public, interested in the societal implications of the cosmic and evolutionary perspectives engendered by research in these fields.

Dynamics Of The Sun And Stars - Honoring The Life And Work Of Michael J. Thompson

~~171,59€~~ 137,27€ 20% OFF + 5% CARD

 These are the proceedings of a meeting celebrating Michael Thompson''s seminal work on solar and stellar physics, as well as his major contributions to the development of the National Center for Atmospheric Research. The meeting also marked Michael J. Thompson’s untimely death in October 2018. Michael played a key role in the development of helioseismology and its application to the study of the structure and dynamics of the solar interior, and he provided a strong foundation for the extension of seismic studies for other stars. After focusing for several years on more administrative activities, he was returning to leading the seismic studies of solar interior rotation and he was deeply involved in the understanding of the dynamics of the core of stars, when his life was tragically lost.The conference focused on dynamical aspects of the sun and stars, based on the large amount of data available on solar and stellar oscillations, and the extensive and detailed modelling now becoming feasible. Combining observations, seismic analysis, and modelling the meeting and this book serve as a fitting memorial to a close colleague and friend, much missed.

Illuminating Dark Matter - Proceedings Of A Simons Symposium

~~118,59€~~ 94,87€ 20% OFF + 5% CARD

 <div><div>Based on a Simons Symposium held in 2018, the proceedings in this volume focus on the theoretical, numerical, and observational quest for dark matter in the universe. Present ground-based and satellite searches have so far severely constrained the long-proposed theoretical models for dark matter. Nevertheless, there is continuously growing astrophysical and cosmological evidence for its existence.</div><div> </div><div>To address present and future developments in the field, novel ideas, theories, and approaches are called for. The symposium gathered together a new generation of experts pursuing innovative, more complex theories of dark matter than previously considered.This is being done hand in hand with experts in numerical astrophysical simulations and observational techniques—all paramount for deciphering the nature of dark matter.</div><div> </div><div>The proceedings volume provides coverage of the most advanced stage of understanding dark matter in various new frameworks. The collection will be useful for graduate students, postdocs, and investigators interested in cutting-edge research on one of the biggest mysteries of our universe.</div></div>

Exploring The Universe: From Near Space To Extra-Galactic - A Collection Of Research Reviews On Contemporary Astrophysics And Space Science

~~237,84€~~ 190,27€ 20% OFF + 5% CARD

 This Festschrift dedicated to the 60th birth anniversary of Prof. Sandip K. Chakrabarti, a well-known Indian astrophysicist, presents a collection of contributions by about fifty scientists who work on diverse topics in contemporary astrophysics and space science including new and low-cost balloon borne experiments, planetary science, astrochemistry and the origin of life, ionospheric research and earthquake predictions, relativistic astrophysics around black holes, and finally, the observational signatures and radiative properties of compact objects. All the authors are well known scholars in their respective subject and are all PhD students of Prof. Sandip K. Chakrabarti. The book demonstrates a two-dimensional evolution of research areas triggered by Sandip Chakrabarti over the past few decades. The first dimension represents the evolution and diversification of Chakrabarti’s own research in which new students were trained. A second dimension arises from the evolution ofthe research topics pursued by Chakrabarti’s fifty odd doctoral students, many of whom have become renowned scientists in their own right, after starting with a certain subject under Chakrabarti and then migrating to completely new subjects with dexterity.The editors have compiled and edited the articles appropriately to some extent to suit the spirit of this Festschrift on the one hand and to keep balance in diverse topics on the other. Thus this volume also provides an overview for whosoever wishes to enter the important subjects of compact objects, astrochemistry, ionospheric science or space exploration in near space. New graduates, PhD scholars, teachers and researchers will benefit from this volume. Moreover it is a record of tremendous success of a school in a range of vast topics.
