Solar system: the Sun and planets

This book contains review articles of most of the topics addressed at the conf- ence on Simulations of Magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in astrophysics: recent achievements and perspectives which took place from July 2 to 6, 2001 at the Institut Henri Poincar'e in Paris.

The aim of this book is twofold: to provide an introduction for newcomers to state of the art computer simulation techniques in space plasma physics and an overview of current developments.

Taking both a theoretical and observational perspective, this book is an introduction to recent developments in the field of celestial mechanics.

Complex plasmas are dusty plasmas in which the density and electric charges of the dust grains are sufficiently high to induce long-range grain-grain interactions, as well as strong absorption of charged-plasma components.

This book covers Martian Aeolian Geomorphology and is organized around three main foci.

In Life in the Solar System and Beyond, Professor Jones has written a broad introduction to the subject, addressing important topics such as, what is life?

It is said that astronomy is one of the few remaining fields in which amateurs can make a real contribution to science, and nowhere is this more true than in the field of meteors and meteorites.

Mercury is one of the more difficult objects for amateur astronomers to observe because of its close proximity to the Sun.

Astronomers' observing guides provide up-to-date information for amateur astronomers who want to know all about what it is they are observing.

Since the advent of astronomical CCD imaging it has been possible for amateurs to produce images of a quality that was attainable only by universities and professional observatories just a decade ago.

This book covers Martian Aeolian Geomorphology and is organized around three main foci.

This comprehensive introductory overview describes the emission of radiation (X-rays to radio) and the winds of host stars and how they control the past, present, and future evolution of an exoplanet.

The analysis and computational techniques associated with the navigation and guidance of spacecraft are now in a mature state of development.

Long regarded as the finest photographic lunar atlas available, The Hatfield Lunar Atlas is a model of accuracy and clarity.

The purpose of this book is to introduce the reader to the numerous safe methods of observing the Sun and solar eclipses, and to suggest objects and features to observe and observing programmes to follow.

This book is devoted to eruptive phenomena on the Sun, the most dangerous sources of space weather disturbances.

This book includes peer-reviewed articles from INCREASE 2023, Indonesia.

This volume presents cutting-edge research on one of modern cosmology's most intriguing challenges: the observed dipolar anisotropies that appear to conflict with the standard ΛCDM cosmological model.

The world is warming up rapidly and this change is most noticeable in mountains with already observable consequences on flora and fauna.

This book features several of the significant scientific debates and controversies that helped develop space science in the early space era.

This book presents pioneering work on a critical observational test of the planet formation theory based on the theoretical study of the water snowline, beyond which water takes the form of ice, in the protoplanetary disks - the place where planets are formed.

This popular science book takes readers on a journey through cosmic epochs, beginning with the Big Bang and cosmic inflation.

Die Ursprünge der Astrologie sind tief in der Geschichte der Menschheit verwurzelt und erstrecken sich über viele Kulturen und Zivilisationen.

Der Mond – unser ständiger Begleiter und doch ein Ort voller Geheimnisse und Potenziale.

What drives a man, born into the shadows of a medieval worldview, to challenge the heavens themselves?

How do magnets work?

*; Explores a wide variety of anomalous structures on Mars's surface that display a high degree of geometric and pictographic design*; Examines sites such as the Elysium pyramid famously described by Carl Sagan and city complexes in the Nepenthes Mensae and Atlantis Chaos regions*; Argues that Mayan creation stories of a Star War and Sumerian myths of the Anunnaki provide ancient evidence for the existence of a Martian cultureExploring evidence of a lost Martian civilization and its contact with Earth, investigator George Haas examines a wide variety of anomalous structures and geoglyphs on Mars's surface that display a high degree of geometric and symbolic design that reveal an ancient bond between Earth and Mars.
