Based on the author's own work and results obtained by international teams he coordinated, this SpringerBrief offers a concise discussion of the origin and early evolution of atmospheres of terrestrial planets during the active phase of their host stars, as well as of the environmental conditions which are necessary in order for planets like the Earth to obtain N_2-rich atmospheres.
Granular Lunar Soils outlines the unique characteristics and challenges of lunar soils and dust, while offering insights into the behaviour of an extreme type of granular material.

An outgrowth of the first Asia-Pacific Regional School on the International Heliophysical Year (IHY), this volume contains a collection of review articles describing the universal physical processes in the heliospace influenced by solar electromagnetic and mass emissions.
This book represents Volume II of the Proceedings of the UN/ESA/NASA Workshop on the International Heliophysical Year 2007 and Basic Space Science, hosted by the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan, Tokyo, 18 - 22 June, 2007.
This book was compiled from contributions given at the 7th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation, May 4-8, 2009, Berlin (IAA - International Academy of Astronautics).
In the context of the NASA Deep Impact space mission, comet 9P/Tempel1 has been at the focus of an unprecedented worldwide long-term multi-wavelength observation campaign.
Understanding how the Sun changes though its 11-year sunspot cycle and how these changes affect the vast space around the Sun - the heliosphere - has been one of the principal objectives of space research since the advent of the space age.
Ispirato alle principali astronome menzionate nella poesia di Siv Cedering "e;Letter from Caroline Herschel"e; alle sue "e;sorelle perdute da tempo, dimenticate nei libri che registrano la nostra scienza"e;, questo libro racconta la vita di venticinque scienziate, con un focus particolare su astronome e matematiche.

Compiled with the help of over 20 expert contributors under the editorship of renowned author and broadcaster Ian Ridpath, the third edition of A Dictionary of Astronomy covers everything from space exploration and the equipment involved, to astrophysics, cosmology, and the concept of time, in over 4,300 entries.
This second edition of the book that targets those in computer algebra and artificial intelligence introduces Black Hole algorithm that is essential for optimizing hyperparameters, an important task in machine learning where mostly, stochastic global methods are used as well as ChatGPT, a novel and in the last few years, very popular Generative AI technology.
In this new edition, the authors James Miller and Connie Weeks dive deeper into how computer programming has assisted with planetary spacecraft navigation; evaluating real-world results and relying on complex mathematical theory to observe advancements made in this rapidly accelerating field.
