Das Buch der Universen
Campus Verlag 2011; US$ 22.82Hauptbeschreibung Jahrtausendelang war für uns Menschen das eigene Universum so unbegreiflich, dass der Gedanke an andere Welten unvorstellbar war. Erst die moderne Physik mit der Theorie der Multiversen schuf die Voraussetzung, andere, neue Universen zu beschreiben, wie sie nach den Gesetzen der Physik möglich sind. John Barrow zeigt uns die bislang... more...
Supergravity
Cambridge University Press 2012; US$ 64.00The first-ever authoritative and systematic introduction to the fundamentals of supergravity, written by two leaders in the field. more...
The Amateur Astronomer's Guide to the Deep-Sky Catalogs
Springer 2011; US$ 31.99Every amateur astronomer has at least heard of the many different catalogs of deep-sky objects; the most well known are the Messier, the Caldwell, the Herschel, and the NGC. All of these catalogs are, in general, readily available, but very few amateur observers are in a position to choose the best catalog for their particular deep-sky observing program,... more...
Advanced Astrophysics
Cambridge University Press 2003; US$ 80.00This book develops the basic underlying physics required for an understanding of the science of astrophysics and the important astronomical phenomena it describes. Astrophysical topics are grouped according to the relevant areas of physics, ideal text for graduate and advanced undergraduate students as well as a reference for established researchers. more...
