In this classic text, a Nobel Prize-winning astrophysicist presents the theory of stellar dynamics as a branch of classical dynamics--a discipline in the same general category as celestial mechanics. His method offers the advantages of clarifying the theory's fundamental issues and defining its underlying motivations. S. Chandrasekhar investigates two areas. The first concerns problems in which the time of relaxation of a stellar system is central. His method consists of analyzing the effects of stellar encounters in terms of the two-body problem of classical dynamics and applying this theory to the dynamics of star clusters. The second area investigates problems centering around Liouville's...
No one dares point out the obvious: that millions of workers have lost their jobs, their standard of living and their future job security. That downsizing, rightsizing, restructuring and reengineering are wiping out the work force in epidemic numbers, and wreaking havoc with the economy. Amidst the approving roar of the crowd, will anyone venture to ask, 'Do our corporate leaders really know what they are doing?' Alan Weiss does, in his own version of the well-known fable. "Our Emperors Have No Clothes" is a story of incompetence at the top levels of our corporations. It's a tale of dismal performance and gross inepitude among senior management -- and the devastating impact it's had on the work force and the economy.
These proceedings are based upon introductory talks, research reports and discussions from the NATO Advanced Workshop on the "Morphology and Dynamics of the Polar Cusp", held at Lillehammer, Norway, 7-12 May, 1984. The upper atmosphere at high latitudes is called the "Earth's win dow to outer space". Through various electrodynamic coupling process es as well as through direct transfer of particles many geophysical effects displayed there are direct manifestations of phenomena occurring in the deep space. The high latitude ionosphere will also exert a feedback on the regions of the magnetosphere and atmosphere to which it is coupled, acting as a momentum and energy source and sink, and a sour...
