| Title | The Spacefarer's Handbook : Science and Life Beyond Earth |
| Author(s) | Ganse, Bergita;Ganse, Urs |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2020. |
| Description | XII, 295 p. 150 illus., 122 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Now is the time to fly to space! New technological developments, commercialisation of spaceflight and advances in space medicine have made human space travel more attainable than ever before. This entertaining but nevertheless authoritative book gives a practical introduction to space travel from a number of viewpoints: How spacecraft are built, how to steer and navigate them, instructions for a comfortable everyday life in space and a guide to remain healthy and strong in weightlessness. The Spacefarer's Handbook is full of advice, tips and anecdotes to prepare the reader for their own trip to space. At the same time, it does not lose the scientific perspective on spaceflight. The authors, a physicist and a space medicine specialist, explain the underlying concepts rigorously and include recent research findings. From the operating principles of rocket engines, via bone loss in weightlessness to the methane lakes of Titan, this book contains everything aspiring spacefarers need to know! "Highly recommended for everyone who wants to fly to space and all passengers of our mothership Earth!" Hans Schlegel, ESA Astronaut |

| Title | The Science of Disasters : Climate Disruptions, Heart Attacks, and Market Crashes |
| Author(s) | Bunde, Armin;Kropp, J??rgen;Schellnhuber, Hans-Joachim |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2002. |
| Description | XX, 453 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Are there universal laws governing the persistence of weather, and is it possible to predict climate transitions as generated by natural or man-made perturbations? How can one quantify the roller-coaster dynamics of stock markets and anticipate mega-crashes? Can we diagnose the health condition of patients from heartbeat time-series analysis which may even form the basis for infarct prevention? This book tackles these questions by applying advanced methods from statistical physics and related fields to all types of non-linear dynamics prone to disaster. The transdisciplinary analysis is organized in some dozen review articles written by world-class scientists |

| Title | Microscopic Imaging Through Turbid Media : Monte Carlo Modeling and Applications |
| Author(s) | Gu, Min;Gan, Xiaosong;Deng, Xiaoyuan |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2015. |
| Description | XII, 187 p. 123 illus., 5 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book provides a systematic introduction to the principles of microscopic imaging through tissue-like turbid media in terms of Monte-Carlo simulation. It describes various gating mechanisms based on the physical differences between the unscattered and scattered photons and method for microscopic image reconstruction, using the concept of the effective point spread function. Imaging an object embedded in a turbid medium is a challenging problem in physics as well as in biophotonics. A turbid medium surrounding an object under inspection causes multiple scattering, which degrades the contrast, resolution and signal-to-noise ratio. Biological tissues are typically turbid media. Microscopic imaging through a tissue-like turbid medium can provide higher resolution than transillumination imaging in which no objective is used. This book serves as a valuable reference for engineers and scientists working on microscopy of tissue turbid media |

| Title | Laboratory Science with Space Data : Accessing and Using Space-Experiment Data |
| Author(s) | Beysens, Daniel;Carotenuto, Luigi;van Loon, Jack J.W.A;Zell, Martin |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2011. |
| Description | XV, 215 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | For decades experiments conducted on space stations like MIR and the ISS have been gathering data in many fields of research in the natural sciences, medicine and engineering. The European Union-sponsored ULISSE project focused on exploring the wealth of unique experimental data provided by revealing raw and metadata from these studies via an Internet Portal. This book complements the portal. It serves as a handbook of space experiments and describes the various types of experimental infrastructure areas of research in the life and physical sciences and technology space missions that hosted scientific experiments the types and structures of the data produced and how one can access the data through ULISSE for further research. The book provides an overview of the wealth of space experiment data that can be used for additional research and will inspire academics (e.g. those looking for topics for their PhD thesis) and research departments in companies for their continued development |

| Title | Tourists in Space : A Practical Guide |
| Author(s) | Seedhouse, Erik |
| Publication | New York, NY, 1. Imprint: Praxis
2. Springer New York, 2008. |
| Description | XXXIII, 314 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Recent surveys have provided new and updated information into public insights of the nascent space tourism industry. Erik Seedhouse uniquely explores in detail the cutting-edge technologies, spacecraft capabilities, launch vehicles and the training that will define this commercial enterprise and also provides a manual for future suborbital and orbital private space explorers. This overview of the space tourism market is based upon choices the spaceflight participant must make, such as choice of agency, mode and spaceport. A detailed explanation is given of the medical requirements for spaceflight participants, with special reference to potential waiver criteria. Over half of the book is a comprehensive astronaut training/instructional manual that addresses each of the 15 subjects required for suborbital and orbital flight |
