A Primer for the Monte Carlo Method
A Primer for the Monte Carlo Method

The Monte Carlo method is a numerical method of solving mathematical problems through random sampling. As a universal numerical technique, the method became possible only with the advent of computers, and its application continues to expand with each new computer generation. A Primer for the Monte Carlo Method demonstrates how practical...

MHD Flows in Compact Astrophysical Objects: Accretion, Winds and Jets (Astronomy and Astrophysics Library)
MHD Flows in Compact Astrophysical Objects: Accretion, Winds and Jets (Astronomy and Astrophysics Library)

Accretion flows, winds and jets of compact astrophysical objects and stars are generally described within the framework of hydrodynamical and magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) flows. Analytical analysis of the problem provides profound physical insights, which are essential for interpreting and understanding the results of numerical simulations....

Under the Radar: The First Woman in Radio Astronomy: Ruby Payne-Scott (Astrophysics and Space Science Library)
Under the Radar: The First Woman in Radio Astronomy: Ruby Payne-Scott (Astrophysics and Space Science Library)

This is the biography of Ruby Payne-Scott (1912 to 1981). As the first female radio astronomer (and one of the first people in the world to consider radio astronomy), she made classic contributions to solar radio physics.

She also played a major role in the design of the Australian government's Council for Scientific and...

Starlight: An Introduction to Stellar Physics for Amateurs (Patrick Moore's Practical Astronomy Series)
Starlight: An Introduction to Stellar Physics for Amateurs (Patrick Moore's Practical Astronomy Series)

This is a book about the physics of stars and starlight. The story of starlight is truly fascinating. Astronomers analyze and interpret the light from stars using photometry and spectroscopy, then inspirational detective work combines with the laws of physics to reveal the temperatures, masses, luminosities and outer structure of these far away...

The Fundamental Constants: A Mystery of Physics
The Fundamental Constants: A Mystery of Physics
The speed of light, the fine structure constant, and Newton's constant of gravity -- these are just three among the many physical constants that define our picture of the world. Where do they come from? Are they constant in time and across space? In this book, physicist and author Harald Fritzsch invites the reader to explore the mystery of the...
100 Volumes of 'Notes on Numerical Fluid Mechanics': 40 Years of Numerical Fluid Mechanics and Aerodynamics in Retrospect
100 Volumes of 'Notes on Numerical Fluid Mechanics': 40 Years of Numerical Fluid Mechanics and Aerodynamics in Retrospect
This volume contains 37 invited contributions, collected to celebrate one hundred volumes of the "NNFM Series". After a general introduction, overviews are given in five parts of the developments in numerical fluid mechanics and related fields. In the first part information about the series is given, its origins are discussed, as well as...
Tools of Radio Astronomy (Astronomy and Astrophysics Library)
Tools of Radio Astronomy (Astronomy and Astrophysics Library)
Four significant factors have led us to update this text. The first is the breathtaking progress in technology, especially in receiver and digital techniques. The second is the advance of radio astronomy to shorter wavelengths, and the increased availability of astronomical satellites. The third is a need to reorganize some of the chapters in order...
Atom Interferometry
Atom Interferometry
"I know of no similar books in the literature, and I am sure Atom Interferometry will be very useful for scientists who are interested both in the fundamental and applied aspects of quantum physics."

Magnetohydrodynamics: Historical Evolution and Trends (Fluid Mechanics and Its Applications)
Magnetohydrodynamics: Historical Evolution and Trends (Fluid Mechanics and Its Applications)
Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) studies the interaction between the flow of an electrically conducting fluid and magnetic fields. It involves such diverse topics as the evolution and dynamics of astrophysical objects, thermonuclear fusion, metallurgy and semiconductor crystal growth, etc. Although the first ideas in magnetohydrodynamics appeared at the...
Clusters of Galaxies: Beyond the Thermal View
Clusters of Galaxies: Beyond the Thermal View
This book presents a review about the physics of clusters of galaxies beyond the standard thermal view. The book first gives a general introduction to clusters of galaxies. It discusses the properties of the hot, virialised gas in these clusters. But the main focus is upon what is beyond this thermal gas: the surrounding warm-hot intergalactic...
