Until relatively recently, Ruby Payne-Scott had been the only woman scientist mentioned brie?y in histories of Australian science or of Australian radio astronomy. This book will be an invaluable resource for anyone interested in these disciplines. Being scientists themselves, the authors explain Payne-Scott’s scienti?c work in detail; therefore, the value and importance of her contributions can, for the ?rs | | 出版日期 | Book 2010 | | 关键词 | Peter G; Hall; Radio Astronomy, historical; Solar Radio Physics, historical; Women in Astronomy; astrono | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-03141-0 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-642-26073-5 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-642-03141-0Series ISSN 0067-0057 Series E-ISSN 2214-7985 | | issn_series | 0067-0057 | | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2010 |
