Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An accessible look at the mysteries that lurk at the edge of the known universe and beyond The observable universe, the part we can see with telescopes, is incredibly vast. Yet recent theories suggest that there is far more to the universe than what our instruments record—in fact, it could be infinite. Colossal flows of galaxies, large empty regions called voids, and other unexplained phenomena offer clues that our own "bubble universe" could be part of a greater realm called the multiverse. How big is the observable universe? What it is made of? What lies beyond it? Was there a time before the Big Bang? Could space have unseen dimensions? In this book, physicist and science writer Paul Halpern explains what we know?and what we hope to soon find out?about our extraordinary cosmos. Explains what we know about the Big Bang, the accelerating universe, dark energy, dark flow, and dark matter to examine some of the theories about the content of the universe and why its edge is getting farther away from us faster Explores the idea that the observable universe could be a hologram and that everything that happens within it might be written on its edge Written by physicist and popular science writer Paul Halpern, whose other books include Collider: The Search for the World's Smallest Particles, and What's Science Ever Done For Us: What the Simpsons Can Teach Us About Physics, Robots, Life, and the Universe

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They say you can’t run from your past, and now she’s reached the other side of the galaxy, Sparks wonders if they’re right ... Living on a distant planet with a transient population for the past year, ducking in and out of spaceport dive bars, mixing with pirates, bounty hunters, and criminals, she’s become just another being in the crowd. But she wasn’t born to eke out a living at the very fringes of society. Not with her powers. So when a stranger makes her a tempting offer ... An adventure she’s been desperate to have ... She wonders if now’s the right time for her to step from the shadows? To return to the planet-hopping, high-risk thrill-ride that used to be her life. To take back control. And if the next few months end up looking like the past twelve, then it’s not like she has anything to lose. Galactic Terror is the first book in a series of space opera thrillers, where every page crackles with high-stakes action and interstellar intrigue.

Download or read book Galactic Astronomy written by James Binney and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-07-13 with total page 818 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the definitive treatment of the phenomenology of galaxies--a clear and comprehensive volume that takes full account of the extraordinary recent advances in the field. The book supersedes the classic text Galactic Astronomy that James Binney wrote with Dimitri Mihalas, and complements Galactic Dynamics by Binney and Scott Tremaine. It will be invaluable to researchers and is accessible to any student who has a background in undergraduate physics. The book draws on observations both of our own galaxy, the Milky Way, and of external galaxies. The two sources are complementary, since the former tends to be highly detailed but difficult to interpret, while the latter is typically poorer in quality but conceptually simpler to understand. Binney and Merrifield introduce all astronomical concepts necessary to understand the properties of galaxies, including coordinate systems, magnitudes and colors, the phenomenology of stars, the theory of stellar and chemical evolution, and the measurement of astronomical distances. The book's core covers the phenomenology of external galaxies, star clusters in the Milky Way, the interstellar media of external galaxies, gas in the Milky Way, the structure and kinematics of the stellar components of the Milky Way, and the kinematics of external galaxies. Throughout, the book emphasizes the observational basis for current understanding of galactic astronomy, with references to the original literature. Offering both new information and a comprehensive view of its subject, it will be an indispensable source for professionals, as well as for graduate students and advanced undergraduates.
Download or read book The Galactic Black Hole written by H Falcke and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2002-12-16 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The supermassive black hole in the center of our Milky Way is the nearest such object and relatively easy to observe and study. Not surprisingly therefore, it is the best studied supermassive black hole. Many astrophysical and even general relativistic effects can be investigated in great detail. The Galactic Black Hole: Lectures on General Relativity and Astrophysics provides a systematic introduction to the physics/astrophysics and mathematics of black holes at a level suitable for graduate students, postdocs, and researchers in physics, astrophysics, astronomy, and applied mathematics. The focus is mainly on the supermassive black hole in the center of our Milky Way but the results can be easily generalized taking it as an example. Leading international experts provide first-hand accounts of the observational and theoretical aspects of this black hole. Topics range from the properties of the Schwarzschild metric and the collapse of a black hole, to quantum gravity, and from the structure of the Galaxy to accretion of matter and the emission properties of the Galactic Center black hole.

Sparks, Greeta, and Shalk are desperate to make planetfall, to reunite with their loved ones and join the battle. But the Ringdell Group’s blockade stands in their way, leaving them stranded in the void. Hidden in an underground hangar on Flanterian, Reyes faces an impossible task: turning an army of untrainable gloyners into a fighting force. But first, she must confront Piltred, a monstrous brute responsible for decimating half the planet. Deep in enemy territory, Faz Went ventures into the city to gather vital intelligence, quantifying the overwhelming odds against them. Despite the barriers, each of them accepts the inevitability of the battle ahead. The question remains: will they be ready when the Ringdell Group strikes? Vastly outnumbered, Flanterian's defenders must be smarter, faster, and deadlier than anything the hellish regime can throw at them. And then there’s the titan mech, hanging over them, ready to be unleashed. They face insurmountable challenges, but they refuse to give up. They have Reyes’ military expertise, Faz Went’s intelligence, Sparks’ unparalleled piloting skills, and the healing abilities of their damp furball ally, Hat. Together, they’ve always met conflict head-on. Yet, none dare voice the unspoken question: Will this war be one battle too far? Jump into Galactic Confrontation: Part One, the fifth book in a gripping space opera series where every page crackles with high-stakes action and interstellar intrigue.

Plotner, The Night Sky Companion, DOI 10. 1007/978-0-387-79509-6_1, 1 Springer ScienceþBusiness Media, LLC 2009 2 TheNightSkyCompanion Welcome,fellowtravelertothestars!Forthenextyearwewilltakeajourneytogetheracrossthenight sky. In these pages you will find lunar features, planets, meteor showers, single and multiple stars, open and globular clusters, as well as distant galaxies. There will be astronomy history to explore, famous astronomers to meet, and science to learn. You’ll find things here for those who enjoy stargazing with just their eyes, binoculars, or even the largest of telescopes! Although these observing tips are designed with all readers in mind, not everyone lives in the same time zone—or the same hemisphere—and certainly no one has clear skies every night. But no matter where you live, or who you are, it is my hope that somewhere here you find something of interest to keep you looking up! LearningtheNightSky If you are new to astronomy, it might seem difficult to learn all those stars. Relax! It’s much easier than you think. Just like moving to a new city, everything will seem unfamiliar at first, but with a little help from some maps, you’ll soon be finding your way around like a pro. Once you become familiar with the constellations and how they appear to move across the night sky, the rest is easy. If you do not have maps of your own, try visiting your local library or one of many online sites thatcangeneratethem.
