| Title | Common envelope evolution |
| Author(s) | Natalia Ivanova;Stephen Justham ;Paul Ricker |
| Publication | Bristol, Institute of Physics Publishing, 2020. |
| Abstract Note | Common envelope evolution is the most important phase in the lives of many significant classes of binary stars. During a common envelope phase, the stars temporarily share the same outer layers, with the cores of both stars orbiting inside the same common envelope. This common envelope is sometimes ejected and helps to explain the formation of a wide variety of astrophysical phenomena, including cataclysmic variables, X-ray binaries, progenitors for type Ia supernovae, and gravitational-wave mergers. Modeling common envelope evolution is a challenging problem, and this important process has typically been described in evolutionary models using very approximate treatments. This book explains the physics of common envelope evolution and relates it to the approximations that are frequently used for modeling the onset, progression, and outcome of common envelope phases. |

| Title | Chandra x-ray observatory: Exploring the high energy universe |
| Author(s) | Belinda Wilkes;Wallace Tucker |
| Publication | Bristol, Institute of Physics Publishing, 2019. |
| Abstract Note | NASA's Chandra X-Ray Observatory has ushered in a revolution in X-ray astronomy. Over the last two decades Chandra has captured stunning celestial X-ray images, measured spectra and monitored light curves to reveal and map the hottest, most energetic regions of the universe. Celebrating its 20th anniversary, this book includes current reviews of the major discoveries and scientific results made by Chandra, authored by leading experts in each sub-field. Documenting the progress, discoveries and developments implemented by the mission, this book provides its readers with a comprehensive review of the mission thus far and its potential future implications. The book includes beautiful images of celestial sources generated from Chandra and multi-wavelength data. 3D figures, movies and interactive illustrations are also used throughout to enhance the text. |

| Title | Active galactic nuclei: Fueling and feedback |
| Author(s) | Francoise Combes |
| Publication | Bristol, Institute of Physics Publishing, 2021. |
| Abstract Note | Almost all galaxies host in their center a supermassive black hole of mass between a million and tens of billions solar masses. Supermassive black holes grow in symbiosis with their host galaxies across the Hubble time, occasionally accreting surround matter, giving rise to an Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). This book gives a general review of our current knowledge of AGN, powered by supermassive black holes: how they are fueled by gas (or stars) and what problems are encountered; how can we account for the wide variety of AGN, from Seyfert/Liners to quasars, and for the two types (AGN 1 and 2) either through dust obscuration, and geometrical orientation arguments, or through intrinsic activity difference, qualitative or quantitative. With modern instruments, providing high resolution and sensitivity, like ALMA in radio, or MUSE at the ESO/VLT, it is possible to unveil the interstellar medium and stars in the circumnuclear regions, discover molecular disks and tori, in the sphere of influence of the black holes. While AGN are accreting matter, they are providing so much energy that part of the surrounding gas is expelled and is observed in molecular outflows, identified as the main feedback process of AGN on their host. |

| Title | Astronomy Education Volume 1: Evidence-based instruction for introductory courses |
| Author(s) | Impey Chris (ed.);Sanlyn Buxner (ed.) |
| Publication | Bristol, Institute of Physics Publishing, 2019. |
| Description | xxi, p.1-1 - 12-24 |
| Series | (AAS-IOP Astronomy) |
| Abstract Note | Astronomy is a popular subject for non-science majors in the United States, often representing a last formal exposure to science. Research has demonstrated the efficacy of active learning, but college astronomy instructors are often unaware of the tools and methods they can use to increase student comprehension and engagement. This book focuses on practical implementation of evidence-based strategies that are supported by research literature. Chapter topics include an overview of learner-centered theories and strategies for course design and implementation, the use of Lecture-Tutorials, the use of technology and simulations to support learner-centered teaching, the use of research-based projects, citizen science, World Wide Telescope and planetariums in instruction, an overview of assessment, considerations for teaching at a community college, and strategies to increase the inclusivity of courses. |

| Publication | Bristol, Institute of Physics Publishing, 2020. |
| Description | xix, p. 1-1 - 9-6 |
| Series | (AAS-IOP Astronomy) |
| Abstract Note | Astronomy is a popular subject for non-science majors in the United States, often representing a last formal exposure to science. Online learning environments are increasingly important in the landscapes of higher education and lifelong learning. The number of students taking online classes is growing, and more instructors are being asked to take their teaching online. This practical guide is intended for astronomy instructors who want to develop their first online course as well as those who want to add new tools and experiences to their existing courses. It explores online course design, integrating new and social media into online learning experiences, adaptive learning systems, massive open online classes (MOOCs), and the use of virtual worlds and virtual reality to teach astronomy. |
