AN INTRODUCTION TO ASTROPHYSICS
This invaluable book, now in its second edition, covers a wide range of topics appropriate for both undergraduate and postgraduate courses in astrophysics. The book conveys a deep and coherent understanding of the stellar phenomena, and basic astrophysics of stars, galaxies, clusters of galaxies and other heavenly bodies of interest. Since the first appearance of the book in 1997, significant progress has been made in different branches of Astronomy and Astrophysics. The second edition takes into account the developments of the subject which have taken place in the last decade. It discusses the latest introduction of L and T dwarfs in the Hertzsprung-Russel diagram (or H-R diagram). Other developments discussed pertain to standard solar model, solar neutrino puzzle, cosmic microwave background radiation, Drake equation, dwarf galaxies, ultra compact dwarf galaxies, compact groups and cluster of galaxies. Problems at the end of each chapter motivate the students to go deeper into the topics. Suggested readings at the end of each chapter have been complemented.
Solving the 111-Year-Old Riddle
Bimal G’s book ‘Solving the 111-Year-Old Riddle’ opens an unexplored window of physics for the readers. Through this book, the author has aimed to solve the riddles generated by the theories of relativity and quantum mechanics. He believes that something is oddly wrong with the explanations and interpretations of these most celebrated theories even though the equations and its predictions are perfect and powerful. Puzzling paradoxes and logic-defying ideas had confounded the realm of physics ever since the formulation of special theory of relativity in 1905. By flouting reality, the theory of quantum mechanics too challenged common sense. Both these theories failed to give rational exp...
