Based on a wide variety of previously unstudied sources, these articles explain how science was applied to three aspects of Islamic ritual in the Middle Ages: the regulation of the lunar calendar; the organisation of the times of the five daily prayers; and the determination of the sacred direction (qibla) towards the Kaaba in Mecca.
In ›Die Erfindung der Prä-Astronautik‹ nimmt der Autor den Leser mit auf eine fesselnde Reise durch die faszinierende Geschichte und Entwicklung einer der kontroversesten Ideen des 20.
Als Giuseppe Racca in den 1970er Jahren sein Physikstudium begann, war von Dunkler Energie noch keine Rede – sie wurde erst mehr als 20 Jahre später postuliert.
If you want to remember why you once fell in love with the idea of the cosmos, or want to fall in love with it for the first time, then this book is for you ObserverFrom Carlo Rovelli, the bestselling author of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics, this is a story of wonder, new worlds and why the end is just the beginningLet us journey into the heart of a black hole.
This book provides the first English translation of the Greek text of the Spherics of Theodosios (2nd-1st century BCE), a canonical mathematical and astronomical text used from as early as the 2nd century CE until the early modern period.

Pierre-Simon, marquis de Laplace (23 March 1749 - 5 March 1827) was a French researcher and polymath whose work was critical to the advancement of designing, science, measurements, physical science, cosmology, and reasoning.
This interesting book provides the physical and mathematical background for a theory describing the universe as a quantum superfluid, and how dark energy and dark matter arise.
This book provides a brief introduction to some basic but important problems in celestial mechanics, and particularly in the few-body problem, such as the permissible and forbidden region of motion, the evolution of moment of inertia of a system, and the orbital stability of asteroids in the solar system.
Discover hidden secrets about the Sun, our local star, and learn about eclipses and the Northern LightsThe Sun is incredibly dynamic and shrouded in mystery, despite its apparent unchanging appearance in our daytime sky.
Basic Physics of Nanoscience: Traditional Approaches and New Aspects at the Ultimate Level deals with the description of properties at the Nano level and self-organizing quantum processes of Nano systems.
El 11 de febrero de 2016, el anuncio de un descubrimiento sacudió el mundo y fue tapa de los principales diarios: por primera vez se habían detectado ondas gravitacionales.

The proceedings present new results obtained from recent observations by the Haverah Park, Yakutsk, Fly's Eye and Akeno groups on the shape of the energy spectrum, the arrival direction (point source) and the nature of the most energetic cosmic rays.
This book provides a survey of the basic ideas of the cellular automaton (CA) modelling environment, emphasising the relevance of this framework to astrophysical applications.
This volume of important papers by one the world's leading astrophysicists provides a sweeping survey of the incisive and exciting applications of nuclear and particle physics to a wide range of problems in astrophysics and cosmology.
In the last fifteen years, various areas of high energy physics, astrophysics and theoretical physics have converged on the study of cosmology so that any graduate student in these disciplines today needs a reasonably self-contained introduction to the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB).
This book contains the proceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Physics Beyond the Standard Models of Particle Physics, Cosmology and Astrophysics.
