Notes from a Physicist on Space Exploration

Hell's Heart

On the Trail of Extraterrestrial Treasures and the Secrets Inside Them

The Meteorite Hunters

A hugely exciting new take on the classic Moby Dick story - with wit, grand adventure and queer romance. Here a small band ventures into deep space to hunt a mysterious leviathan. Great riches are at stake - but some might lose their lives, and their hearts, in the process.

After two scientists crash on a hostile moon, they must use every tool at their disposal to survive. A tense, atmospheric voyage into the unknown from Adrian Tchaikovsky, author of Children of Time.

Shroud

This book focuses on the linkages between very high energy (TeV or 1012 electron-volt) gamma-ray astronomy and the interstellar medium (ISM), and the key science questions expected to be answered. Their joint study is essential if we are to understand the nature of gamma-ray emission and hence shed light on where extreme cosmic-rays and electrons are being accelerated in our galaxy. Since TeV neutrinos are also intimately tied to the production of gamma-rays of similar energy, we would also extend our discussion to this field.

Gamma-rays And The Interstellar Medium

Close your eyes and imagine the last moments of a massive star, large as the Solar System. As the mass of its core approaches a fatidic value, the enormous fabric collapses. The star plasma streams like a monstrous wave inward towards the center of the star. In a fraction of a second the core of the star becomes as dense as an atomic nucleus. And then a mighty outward shock wave forms, disrupting the whole structure, the star becoming almost as bright as the whole galaxy. This explosion is a supernova!Chinese observers studied with care these events since ancient times; the observation of these explosions by Tycho Brahe and Kepler was crucial for the adoption of the Copernican system. Do you know that each drop of your blood contains iron atoms produced in these cosmic cataclysms? We are literally star dust, disseminated in the galactic medium by supernovae.This book guides the reader in the discovery of these rare events, the most spectacular that the Universe can offer. Present models reproduce the explosion only with difficulty, as if some details were wrong, or a whole aspect of physics was missing from the equations. Different aspects of these events are illustrated, as well as their historical and scientific importance and their crucial role in the evolution of the galaxy and the living organisms.

Supernova: The Last Flash Of The Disappearing Star

Life on Earth depends on the Sun -- our star. The book describes the past 100 years of research to understand and build a model of a star -- using the most creative and advanced technologies of the 20th and 21st centuries. Starting from a breakthrough in 1938 of our understanding of the nuclear fusion reactions that power the Sun and other stars, we have created explosions using the same nuclear physics that powers stars. Now, we are developing complex machines that use the same nuclear physics to reproduce the nuclear fusion reactions that power the Sun and the billions of other stars in the galaxies -- to develop electric power.Nuclear laboratories around the world have built complex machines that produce solar nuclear fusion reactions for periods of seconds. This book describes the history of the first early attempts to build fusion reactors and how man has worked for decades to build a machine based on the nuclear reactions that power the stars.It also describes laboratories carrying out the research and the building of the machines designed to start and maintain the steady solar nuclear burning of hydrogen that powers the stars. It is a fascinating read of the history and the current state of international efforts to build star power.

An Introduction to Stellar Astrophysics

Nature editor and Science Book Prize winner Henry Gee explores the future of our species and our probable extinction, while suggesting how, through technological innovation, we might indefinitely postpone our fate.

Advanced Series In Astrophysics And Cosmology

The current cosmological model relies on inflationary theories, which incorporate baryosynthesis, dark matter, and dark energy. Supported by precise cosmological data, it necessitates physics beyond the standard models of fundamental forces, including gravity. This connection between macroscopic gravity on large scales and quantum gravity on the smallest scales is where quantum gravity's nature becomes evident. Quantum gravity effects alter our classical understanding of gravitational phenomena as described by General Relativity, leading to observable deviations from the conventional cosmological model. The field of cosmoparticle physics explores the interplay between the micro and macro worlds, offering insights into the development of quantum gravity and its cosmological implications. In this work we hence wanted to cover all the amazing developments which have happened on the interface of quantum gravity theories and cosmology, making it a valuable resource for any researcher interested in exploring these fields in depth or starting research in them.
