Disks and Outflows Around Young Stars
The subject of the book, the ubiquitous circumstellar disks around very young stars and the corresponding jets of outflowing matter, has recently become one of the hottest areas in astrophysics. The disks are thought to be precursors to planetary systems, and the outflows are thought to be a necessary phase in the formation of a young star, helping the star to get rid of angular momentum and energy as it makes its way onto the main sequence. The possible connections to planetary systems and stellar astrophysics makes these topics especially broad, appealing to generalists and specialists alike. The CD not only contains papers that could not be printed in the book but allows the authors to include a fair amount of data, often displayed as color images.
Assessment of Safety and Risk with a Microscopic Model of Detonation
Whereas the current plane wave, homogeneous flow detonation physics is an excellent engineering tool for numerical predictions under given conditions, the multi-hot-spot-model is an additional tool for analyzing phenomena that cannot be explained by classical calculations. The real benefit comes from being able to understand, without any artificial assumptions, the whole phenomenology of detonations and explosions. By specifying pressure generating mechanisms, one is able to see that the current treatment of the detonics of energetic materials is only a very special - but powerful - case of explosion events and hazards. It becomes clear that physical explosions must be taken into account in any safety considerations. In these terms it is easy to understand why even liquid carbon dioxide and inert silo materials can explode. A unique collection of unexpected events, which might surprise even specialists, has resulted from the evaluation of the model.-
Conversations on the Beach
Based on ethnographic fieldwork in a fishing village, this book explores the local environmental knowledge of the fisher folk and its role in helping them to adapt to rapidly changing conditions. Particular emphasis is put on conversation as a cultural process, the use of metaphors and figurative speech.

Why the Sky is Blue
Delightful and intriguing, 'Why the Sky is Blue' shows how the attempt to answer this age-old and deceptively simple question only enhances the magic of the blue sky we see above us.
Atlas of Great Comets
A stunning reference on thirty of the greatest comets that have been witnessed and documented since the Middle Ages. Supported by a wealth of images, the broad historical context and modern scientific interpretation are explored for each Great Comet, providing an invaluable resource for all astronomy enthusiasts.

Zum Nachdenken: Unser Sonnensystem
Dieses Buch bietet dem Leser die Möglichkeit, unser Sonnensystem mithilfe von mehr als 100 astronomischen und astrophysikalischen Aufgaben in vielen Details kennenzulernen. Die Aufgaben wurde ursprünglich in der Rubrik „Zum Nachdenken“ der beliebten Astronomie-Zeitschrift „Sterne und Weltraum“ gestellt. Sie richten sich gleichermaßen an Amateurastronomen und Astronomie-Begeisterte, an Lehrer und Schüler sowie an Studierende und Lehrende der Physik und Astronomie. Alle Aufgaben wurden für dieses Buch inhaltlich und grafisch überarbeitet und aktualisiert. Jede Aufgabe beginnt mit einem informativen Einleitungstext, der Kontext und Inhalt, sowie Bezüge zur astronomischen Forschun...
