Overview: This collection of papers describes the evolutionary path of stars of various masses. Observational data and theoretical modeling of the stellar atmosphere and the stellar interior and their interaction are presented, covering chemical peculiarities, mass loss, and explosion, all of which are strongly related to the hydrodynamic evolution of the interior. In particular the supernova SN 1987 A is discussed for the first time in detail, including the underground neutrino observations and the detection of X-rays from the supernova. The study of its progenitor, a B 3 supergiant, was rela

Overview: happens, how it happens, and why it happens. Our assumption ought to be that this is as true in education as it is in atomic physics. But this leaves many other questions to answer. The crucial ones: What kind of science is proper or appropriate to education? How does it differ from physics? What is wrong with the prevai1~ ing, virtually unopposed research tradition in education? What could or should be done to replace it with a more adequate tradi­ tion? What concepts are necessary to describe and explain what we find there? It is in this realm that we find ourselves. Where to start

Overview: The aim of this book is to comment on, and clarify, the mathematical aspects of the theory of thermodynamics. The standard presentations of the subject are often beset by a number of obscurities associated with the words "state", "reversible", "irreversible", and "quasi-static". This book is written in the belief that such obscurities are best removed not by the formal axiomatization of thermodynamics, but by setting the theory in the wider context of a genuine field theory which incorporates the effects of heat conduction and intertia, and proving appropriate results about the gover

Overview: Dieses Arbeitsbuch wendet sich an Studienanfänger der Rechtswissenschaft, es ist jedoch auch für die juristische Ausbildung von Wirtschaftswissenschaftlern an Universitäten und Fachhochschulen geeignet. Es bietet in einem integrierten Kurs eine Einarbeitung in das juristische Denken und Arbeiten auf dem Gebiet des Zivilrechts. Während herkömmliche Anfängerliteratur entweder auf die Stoffdarstellung in lehrbuchartiger Form oder aber auf die Wiedergabe von Rechtsfällen und Lösungen ausgerichtet sind, hebt das vorliegende Buch diese Trennung auf, indem Stofferarbeitung und Anwendung des

Overview: Beinhaltet eine ausführliche Einführung in die Mass- und Integrationstheorie.Detaillerte und verständliche Darstellung der Integration auf Mannigfaltigkeiten.Includes supplementary material: .Der dritte und letzte Band dieser Reihe ist der Integrationstheorie und den Grundlagen der globalen Analysis gewidmet. Es wird wiederum viel Wert auf einen modernen und klaren Aufbau gelegt, der nicht nur eine wohl strukturierte schöne Theorie liefert, sondern dem Leser auch schlagkräftige Werkzeuge für seine weitere Beschäftigung mit der Mathematik in die Hand gibt. Aus diesem Grund wird beispi

Overview: These three volumes entitled Advances in Hypersonics contain the Proceedings of the Second and Third Joint US/Europe Short Course in Hypersonics which took place in Colorado Springs and Aachen. The Second Course was organized at the US Air Force Academy, USA in January 1989 and the Third Course at Aachen, Germany in October 1990. The main idea of these Courses was to present to chemists, com­ puter scientists, engineers, experimentalists, mathematicians, and physicists state of the art lectures in scientific and technical dis­ ciplines including mathematical modeling, computational m

It introduces the properties of high-temperature water, the merits of hydrothermal conversion of biomass, and some novel hydrothermal conversion processes, mainly including hydrothermal production of value-added products, hydrothermal gasification, hydroth

Overview: Presents a completely new survey over all taxonomic units in an extensively revised new edition.Enriches and updates understanding of the leaf-succulent family Aizoaceae.Includes numerous brilliant co.About 15 years after the first edition of the Handbook of Aizoaceae, a wealth of changes can be reported for the family Aizoaceae, and this second edition brings a completely new survey over all taxonomic units from subfamilies down to species and subspecies; each critically examined. Of the presently known 2956 species, 1594 have been accepted and are described here, arranged in 147 ge

Overview: In the first edition of this book, we observed that it had been created to fill a need for a usable "self-contained volume on hydrodynamics" (and hydrogeology) that was written specifically for the petroleum industry, but could also serve the earth science community in general. When the first edition was published (1982), M. K. Hubbert, the father of petroleum hydrodynamics, was approaching the final stages of his very productive career. For this reason, the book served as a vehicle to amplify his concepts and spread and stimulate applications of some of his theories and methods thro

Overview: This book is the first to establish the nature and causes of violence as key features in the political economy of Australia as an advanced capitalist society.  Australia’s neoliberal corporate security state in seen to represent the emergence of a post-democratic order, whereby minds and bodies are disciplined to the dominant ideology of market relations.  Locating questions of the democracy and of the country’s economy at the heart of Australia’s political struggle, the author elaborates how violence in Australia is built into a hegemonic order, characterized by the concentration of

Overview: Describes radiative atomic and molecular processes in the context of quantum mechanics.Analyzes elementary radiative processes in gases and plasmas on the single-particle level.Combines contemporary a.This book describes selected problems in contemporary spectroscopy in the context of quantum mechanics and statistical physics. It focuses on elementary radiative processes involving atomic particles (atoms, molecules, ions), which include radiative transitions between discrete atomic states, the photoionization of atoms, photorecombination of electrons and ions, bremsstrahlung, photodi

The focus is on applying our knowledge of development in natural cognitive systems, specifically human infants, to the problem of creating artificial cognitive systems in the guise of humanoid robots. The approach is founded on the three-fold premise that (a) cognition is the process by which an autonomous self-gove
