| Title | Leonid Storm Research |
| Author(s) | Jenniskens, Peter;Rietmeijer, Frans J.M;Brosch, Noah;Fonda, Mark |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2000. |
| Description | XI, 606 p. 123 illus., 2 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book will appeal to all researchers that have an interest in the current Leonid showers. It contains over forty research papers that present some of the first observational results of the November 1999 Leonid meteor storm, the first storm observed by modern observing techniques. The book is a first glimpse of the large amount of information obtained during NASA's Leonid Multi-Instrument Aircraft Campaign and groundbased campaigns throughout the world. It provides an excellent overview on the state of meteor shower research for any professional researcher or amateur meteor observer interested in studies of meteors and meteoroids and their relation to comets, the origin of life on Earth, the satellite impact hazard issue, and upper atmosphere studies of neutral atom chemistry, the formation of meteoric debris, persistent trains, airglow, noctilucent clouds, sprites and elves |

| Title | Sirius Matters |
| Author(s) | Brosch, Noah |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2008. |
| Description | XVII, 216 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Since very early times Sirius was a point of attraction in the night sky. It served to synchronize calendars in antiquity and was the subject of many myths and legends, including some modern ones. It was perceived as a red star for more than 400 years, but such reports were relegated to the Mediterranean region. Astronomically, Sirius is a very bright star. This, and its present close distance to us, argues in favor of it being the target of detailed studies of stellar structure and evolution. Its binary nature, with a companion that is one of the more massive white dwarfs, is an additional reason for such studies. This book collects the published information on Sirius in an attempt to derive a coherent picture of how this system came to look as it does |
