This book was released on 2007-03-22 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the interstellar medium - the space between the stars in galaxies - new stars are born from material that is replenished by the debris ejected by stars when they die. This book is a comprehensive manual for studying the collisional and radiative processes observed in the interstellar medium. This second edition has been thoroughly updated and extended to cover related topics in radiation theory. It considers the chemistry of the interstellar medium both at the present epoch and in the early Universe, and discusses the physics and chemistry of shock waves. The methods of calculation of the rates of collisional excitation of interstellar molecules and atoms are explained, emphasising the quantum mechanical method. This book will be ideal for researchers involved in the interstellar medium and star formation, and physical chemists specialising in collision theory or in the measurement of the rates of collision processes.

Book excerpt: In the interstellar medium - which occupies the space between the stars in galaxies - new stars are born from material that is replenished by the debris ejected by stars when they die. This book presents a detailed account of the atomic and molecular processes that give rise to the radiation we observe from the interstellar medium, knowledge that is essential to understanding star formation in our own and other galaxies. This Second Edition has been thoroughly updated and extended to cover related topics in radiation theory. It considers the chemistry of the interstellar medium, both in the present epoch and the early Universe. The book discusses the physics and chemistry of shock waves, which are produced by the jets of matter generated as a consequence of star formation. The methods for calculating rates of collisional excitation of interstellar molecules and atoms are explained, with emphasis on the quantum mechanical method. A comprehensive manual for studying collisional and radiative processes in the interstellar medium, this book will be ideal for researchers involved in calculating the rates of such processes, for those studying the interstellar medium and star formation, as well as for physical chemists specializing in collision theory or in the measurement of the rates of collision processes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the astrophysics and spectroscopy of the interstellar molecules. In the introduction, overview and history of interstellar observations are described in order to help understanding how the modern astrophysics and molecular spectroscopy have been developed interactively. The recent progress in the study of this field is briefly summarized. Furthermore, the basic knowledge of molecular spectroscopy, which is essential to correctly comprehend the astrophysical observations, is presented in a compact form.

Book excerpt: In the course of editing this volume I discovered that I am temper amentally unsuited to the task, an impediment that in no small way accounts for the fact that its publication is later than I would have hoped or anticipated. I am, at heart, a pedant, particularly with respect to the use and abuse of the English language. Many of my scientific colleagues are a good deal less punctilious; they take the reasonable view that if the message is clear, the manner of expression is unimportant. Experience has taught me that what is clear to the author is often quite unclear to the reader unless the author takes the trouble to express himself with precision. I have also found that most scientists are unwilling to devote to the presentation of their results the care that they lavish on obtaining them. But I found myself slipping beyong this often justifiable complaint into a state of inexcusable self-righteousness. It began innocently enough. Conscious of the need for speed, I read the first two or three texts with murmurs of approval, and scribbled 'no changes needed' on the title page of the copy. Then I began to notice one or two grammatical mistakes, plural verbs with singular nouns, mixtures of tenses, and so on, which had to be corrected; not serious, I told myself, a matter only of changing a word here, retyping a line there. Quickly I sank deeper.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Astronomy and Astrophysics Abstracts, which has appeared in semi-annual volumes since 1969, is de voted to the recording, summarizing and indexing of astronomical publications throughout the world. It is prepared under the auspices of the International Astronomical Union (according to a resolution adopted at the 14th General Assembly in 1970). Astronomy and Astrophysics Abstracts aims to present a comprehensive documentation of literature in all fields of astronomy and astrophysics. Every effort will be made to ensure that the average time interval between the date of receipt of the original literature and publication of the abstracts will not exceed eight months: This time interval is near to that achieved by monthly abstracting journals, com pared to which our system of accumulating abstracts for about six months offers the advantage of greater convenience for the user. I, 1980; some older Volume 27 contains literature published in 1980 and received before August literature which was received late and which is not recorded in earlier volumes is also included. We acknowledge with thanks contributions to this volume by Dr. J. Bouska, Prague, who surveyed journals and publications in Czech and supplied us with abstracts in English.
