Dark matter (Astronomy)

  • Dark Matter In The Universeby John Bahcall; Tsvi Piran; Steven Weinberg

    World Scientific Publishing Company 2004; US$ 101.40

    If standard gravitational theory is correct, then most of the matter in the universe is in an unidentified form which does not emit enough light to have been detected by current instrumentation. This book is the second editon of the lectures given at the 4th Jerusalem Winter School for Theoretical Physics, with new material added. The lectures are... more...

  • In Search of Dark Matterby Ken Freeman; Geoff McNamara

    Springer-Verlag New York Inc 2006; US$ 35.99

    Presents the story of the emergence of the dark matter problem, from the initial erroneous discovery of dark matter to contemporary explanations for the nature of dark matter and its role in the origin and evolution of the Universe. This account spans a variety of scientific disciplines, from observational astronomy to particle physics. more...

  • Dark Matter in Astro- and Particle Physicsby Hans Volker Klapdor-Kleingrothaus; Richard Arnowitt

    Springer 2006; US$ 299.99

    The search for dark matter in the universe has established itself as one of the most exciting and central fields of astrophysics, particle physics and cosmology. The lectures and talks in this book emphasize the experimental and theoretical status and future perspectives, stressing in particular the interplay between astro and particle physics. more...

  • Dark Sky, Dark Matterby J.M Overduin

    CRC Press 2002; US$ 209.95

    This text compares observational data from large telescopes with cosmological theory based on general relativity and particle physics. The authors attempt to provide a more accurate picture of the universe and the exotic material believed to constitute dark matter. more...

  • The Light/Dark Universeby James M. Overduin; Paul S. Wesson

    World Scientific Publishing Company 2008; US$ 79.00

    To the eyes of the average person and the trained scientist, the night sky is dark, even though the universe is populated by myriads of bright galaxies. Why this happens is a question commonly called Olbers' Paradox, and dates from at least 1823. How dark is the night sky is a question which preoccupies astrophysicists at the present. The answer... more...

  • Dark Matter, Neutrinos, and Our Solar Systemby Nirmala Prakash

    World Scientific Publishing Company 2012; US$ 173.00

    Dark Matter, Neutrinos, and Our Solar System is a unique enterprise that should be viewed as an important contribution to our understanding of dark matter, neutrons and the solar system. It describes these issues in terms of links, between cosmology, particle and nuclear physics, as well as between cosmology, atmospheric and terrestrial physics. It... more...
