Galaxy collisions: forging new worlds from cosmic crashes

by Struck, Curtis

fromSpringer-Praxis books in popular astronomy

0 Type: Book

Galaxy collisions are the key process in building galaxies, triggering the formation of stars, and the build-up of heavy elements that allow the formation of planets and solar systems. This book presents the revolutionary research advances achieved in the last decade and lucidly…

Galaxy collisions: forging new worlds from cosmic crashes

by Struck, Curtis

fromSpringer-Praxis books in popular astronomy

0 Type: Book

The spectacular images of galaxy collisions capture the imagination. This book will show what is out there in the universe, what it's like in other galaxies, what they might look like, and how cosmic processes might affect life in other solar systems. It will explain crucial sta…

The precise phase-space distribution and properties of Galactic dark matter necessary for its direct and indirect detection are currently unknown. Since the distributions of normal and dark matter in the Milky Way are coupled to each other as they both move in the same gravitati…

Galactic dynamics is an important tool for studying what is happening in our Milky Way, because the kinematics of stars can tell us a lot about their history and the forces that have shaped their orbits. From our position in the Milky Way, we are able to accurately observe the p…

Dynamical chaos in planetary systems

by Shevchenko, Ivan I.

fromAstrophysics and space science library

0 Type: Book

This is the first monograph dedicated entirely to problems of stability and chaotic behaviour in planetary systems and its subsystems. The author explores the three rapidly developing interplaying fields of resonant and chaotic dynamics of Hamiltonian systems, the dynamics of So…

"Dark matter is a fundamental component of the standard cosmological model, but in spite of four decades of increasingly sensitive searches, no-one has yet detected a single darkmatter particle in the laboratory. An alternative cosmological paradigm exists: MOND (MOdified Newton…
