Book Sky  Wind  and Stars

Download or read book Sky Wind and Stars written by Dongju Yun and published by Jain Publishing Company. This book was released on 2003 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born and raised in northern Manchuria during the colonial period of Korea, Yun Dong-ju was a poet of the utmost purity, beauty, and sincerity. His posthumously published collection of poems under the title Sky, wind, stars, and poems is one of the all-time favorites of Korean readers. Wishing not to have so much as a speck of shame toward heaven until the day I die, I suffered, even when the wind stirred the leaves. (From Foreword) In simple diction and straightforward expressions, his poems sing of his love for his people, his compassion for the poor and destitute, and his hopes for freedom and independence. These themes still resonate deep within the hearts of the Korean people. His imprisonment and eventual death in 1945 in a Japanese prison lend great poignancy to his work.

Book Star Wind The Pyramid of Destiny

Download or read book Star Wind The Pyramid of Destiny written by Francisco Angulo de Lafuente and published by FRANCISCO ANGULO LA RELIQUIA. This book was released on 2024-09-25 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Secret of Zephyria In the vastness of the cosmos, where stars dance their eternal waltz and planets spin in silent orbits, lies a world forgotten by time. Zephyria, a name that whispers ancient secrets, an echo of civilizations lost in the dust of eons. Under the unrelenting scrutiny of two moons, their silvery light bathing the dunes in a spectral glow, stands a monument to the unknown. The Great Pyramid, an obsidian colossus that defies human comprehension, rises like a scar upon the planet's face, an enigma carved in the very stone of mystery. For countless millennia, this slumbering titan remained silent, guardian of unfathomable secrets under a star-studded firmament. The first colonists, lured by rumors of unimaginable riches, arrived on its barren shores with eyes filled with greed and hearts brimming with hope. They sought Luminium, a mineral whose power, it was said, could fuel their ships and extend their fleeting lives beyond the limits imposed by nature. But the pyramid, impervious to their efforts, remained sealed. Its dark chambers, labyrinths of alien wisdom, resisted every attempt at desecration. The Great Pyramid waited, patient as the mountains, eternal as the stars, for the chosen one to arrive. And then, like a meteor piercing the veil of night, came Elara Dawnbringer. Young, impetuous, with a thirst for knowledge that rivaled the vastness of the cosmos, Elara was an enigma herself. She was not driven by earthly riches or the promises of power that seduced her companions. Her heart beat to the rhythm of a higher symphony: the pursuit of knowledge, the yearning to decipher the mysteries that the universe jealously guarded. And it was on the sands of Zephyria, under the imposing shadow of the Great Pyramid, that she found her destiny written in the stars.

Book B e  Stars

    Book Details:
  • Author : Anne Marie Hubert
  • Publisher : Springer Science & Business Media
  • Release : 2013-06-29
  • ISBN : 9401590141
  • Pages : 284 pages

Download or read book B e Stars written by Anne Marie Hubert and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of having a meeting came to the Editors when working on several aspects of galactic Be and B[e] stars. They found that a general summary of the properties of B[e] stars was missing, so that the organiza tion of a first meeting on these objects appeared as very useful. B[e] stars have hydrogen line emission and forbidden [Fe 11] and [0 I] emission lines in their spectra; they are also characterized by a strong IR excess due to circumstellar dust. Having a large amount of extinction in the UV and the visual they have been less frequently observed than other emission line objects. Although about one hundred galactic objects have been classified as B[e], only fif teen or so have been studied in some detail. Besides this, the evolutionary status of these objects is rat her controversial, are they pre-main sequence or stars on the way to become nUclei of planetary nebulae? Other difficult problems appear when considering the relations of these stars with other similar groups, like Herbig AeBe stars, Be, luminous blue variables and the superluminous B[e] stars observed in the Magellanic Clouds. The conference seems timely since large surveys like DENIS and 2Mass, plus new space and new instruments for the micron, millimeter and cen timeter wavelength region will result in the discovery of more stars of this group.

Book Instability and Variability of Hot Star Winds

Download or read book Instability and Variability of Hot Star Winds written by Anthony F.J. Moffat and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This specialized workshop was conceived during the workshop on "Non isotropic and Variable Outflows from Stars", which was held at the Space Telescope Science Institute in October, 1991. At that meeting, the four of us collectively decided that the time was ripe for an even more focussed discussion of the basic issues in the area of hot-star wind instability and its observable manifestations. Not that the big problems have been solved! Rather, we are currently in a phase of rapid development, both with regard to the models and to the observations. The key issue at this new workshop would be to decide how the time-dependent structures observed in hot-star winds (e. g. , NACs, DACs, blobs, clumps, filaments, shells, puffs, jets, etc. ) relate to radiative and other instabilities. Further questions concern the role of turbulence and the nature of its driver, and the effect of stellar rotation, pulsation, and magnetic fields on time-dependent phenomena in hot-star winds. Of no less importance is the impact of stellar wind variability on the derivation of mass-loss rates, on stellar evolution, and on momentum/energy deposition in the interstellar medium. To attain our goal of maximum confrontation (in the positive sense!) we decided: (1) to limit the workshop to the observers and theoreticians most active in this field in the world; (2) to insist that virtually all participants present a talk, thereby avoiding the distraction of poster sessions; and (3) to allocate approximately half of the allotted time to discussion.
