Encyclopedia of the Solar System, Second Edition
Encyclopedia of the Solar System, Second Edition
Long before Galileo published his discoveries about Jupiter, lunar craters, and the Milky Way in the Starry Messenger in 1610, people were fascinated with the planets and stars around them. That interest continues today, and scientists are making new discoveries at an astounding rate. Ancient lake beds on Mars, robotic spacecraft missions, and...
Unix Unleashed (4th Edition)
Unix Unleashed (4th Edition)
Using Solaris 8 and Linux 7.1 as their reference flavors, Robin Anderson and Andy Johnston (as well as a slew of contributors) show how to be a system administrator--and get all sorts of other work done--in the fourth edition of Unix Unleashed. Significantly different from its predecessors, this book stays generally clear of very basic...
Fundamentals of Electric Propulsion: Ion and Hall Thrusters (JPL Space Science and Technology Series)
Fundamentals of Electric Propulsion: Ion and Hall Thrusters (JPL Space Science and Technology Series)

This important new book explains the fundamentals of electric propulsion for spacecraft and describes in detail the physics and characteristics of the two major electric thrusters in use today, ion and Hall thrusters. The authors provide an introduction to plasma physics in order to allow readers to understand the models and derivations used...

Plasma Engineering: Applications from Aerospace to Bio and Nanotechnology
Plasma Engineering: Applications from Aerospace to Bio and Nanotechnology

Plasma engineering applies the unique properties of plasmas (ionized gases) to improve processes and performance over many fields, such as materials processing, spacecraft propulsion, and nanofabrication. Plasma Engineering considers this rapidly expanding discipline from a unified standpoint, addressing fundamentals of physics and...

The DFT: An Owners' Manual for the Discrete Fourier Transform
The DFT: An Owners' Manual for the Discrete Fourier Transform
Just as a prism separates white light into its component bands of colored light, so the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) is used to separate a signal into its constituent frequencies. Just as a pair of sunglasses reduces the glare of white light, permitting only the softer green light to pass, so the DFT may be used to modify a signal to achieve a...
The Volcano Adventure Guide
The Volcano Adventure Guide
The Volcano Adventure Guide is the first book of its type. It contains vital information for anyone wishing to visit, explore, and photograph active volcanoes safely and enjoyably. Following an introduction that discusses eruption styles of different types of volcanoes, how to prepare for a volcano trip, and how to avoid volcanic dangers, the book...

Exoplanets: Finding, Exploring, and Understanding Alien Worlds (Astronomers' Universe)
Exoplanets: Finding, Exploring, and Understanding Alien Worlds (Astronomers' Universe)

Exoplanets: Finding, Exploring, and Understanding Alien Worlds probes the basis for possible answers to the fundamentals questions asked about these planets orbiting stars other than our Sun. This book examines what such planets might be like, where they are, and how we find them.

Until around ten years ago, the only planets...
