| Title | New Millennium Solar Physics |
| Author(s) | Aschwanden, Markus J |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2019. |
| Description | XV, 714 p. 229 illus., 170 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This is a follow-on book to the introductory textbook "Physics of the Solar Corona" previously published in 2004 by the same author, which provided a systematic introduction and covered mostly scientific results from the pre-2000 era. Using a similar structure as the previous book the second volume provides a seamless continuation of numerous novel research results in solar physics that emerged in the new millennium (after 2000) from the new solar missions of RHESSI, STEREO, Hinode, CORONAS, and the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) during the era of 2000-2018. The new solar space missions are characterized by unprecedented high-resolution imaging, time resolution, spectral capabilities, stereoscopy and tomography, which reveal the intricate dynamics of magneto-hydrodynamic processes in the solar corona down to scales of 100 km. The enormous amount of data streaming down from SDO in Terabytes per day requires advanced automated data processing methods. The book focuses exclusively on new research results after 2000, which are reviewed in a comprehensive manner, documented by over 3600 literature references, covering theory, observations, and numerical modeling of basic physical processes that are observed in high-temperature plasmas of the Sun and other astrophysical objects, such as plasma instabilities, coronal heating, magnetic reconnection processes, coronal mass ejections, plasma waves and oscillations, or particle acceleration. |

| Title | Introducing the Stars : Formation, Structure and Evolution |
| Author(s) | Beech, Martin |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2019. |
| Description | XIV, 262 p. 90 illus., 49 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This textbook introduces the reader to the basic concepts and equations that describe stellar structure. Various approximation techniques are used to solve equations, and an intuitive rather than rigorous approach is employed to interpret the properties of the stars. The book provides step-by-step instructions, helpful exercises and relevant historical lessons to familiarize students with key concepts and mathematical theories. Based upon a series of one-semester (12 weeks) elective undergraduate courses offered at the University of Regina, this book is intended for students who are interested in seeing how basic calculus and introductory physics can be applied to the understanding of the stars from their formation to their death. The text provides an intermediate stepping stone between lower-level undergraduate classes and more specialized postgraduate texts on the subject of stellar structure |

| Title | Microwave Cavities and Detectors for Axion Research : Proceedings of the 2nd International Workshop |
| Author(s) | Carosi, Gianpaolo;Rybka, Gray;van Bibber, Karl |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2018. |
| Description | XI, 161 p. 76 illus., 63 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The nature of dark matter remains one of the preeminent mysteries in physics and cosmology. It appears to require the existence of new particles whose interactions to ordinary matter are extraordinarily feeble. One well-motivated candidate is the axion, an extraordinarily light neutral particle that may possibly be detected by looking for their conversion to detectable microwaves in the presence of a strong magnetic field. This has led to a number of experimental searches that are beginning to probe plausible axion model space and may discover the axion in the near future. These proceedings discuss the challenges of designing and operating tunable resonant cavities and detectors at ultralow temperatures. The topics discussed here have potential application far beyond the field of dark matter detection and may be applied to resonant cavities for accelerators as well as designing superconducting detectors for quantum information and computing applications. This work is intended for graduate students and researchers interested in learning the unique requirements for designing and operating microwave cavities and detectors for direct axion searches and to introduce several proposed experimental concepts that are still in the prototype stage. Describes unique designs for microwave cavity axion searches Includes detectors for ultra-low noise microwave applications Presents new methods of axion dark matter detection |

| Title | Millimeter Astronomy : Saas-Fee Advanced Course 38. Swiss Society for Astrophysics and Astronomy |
| Author(s) | Wilson, T. L;Guilloteau, St??phane;Dessauges-Zavadsky, Miroslava;Pfenniger, Daniel |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2018. |
| Description | VII, 183 p. 54 illus., 10 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The millimeter and sub-millimeter wavebands are unique in astronomy in containing several thousands of spectral lines of molecules as well as the thermal continuum spectrum of cold dust. They are the only bands in the electromagnetic spectrum in which we can detect the molecular gas reservoir for star formation and cold dust far away in high-redshift galaxies, and nearby in low-temperature cocoons of protostars and protoplanets. This book is based on and extensively updated from the lectures given during the Saas-Fee Advanced Course 38 on millimeter astronomy. It presents both the observing techniques and the scientific perspectives of observations at millimeter wavelengths, here in particular the star and planet formation. The chapters by Thomas L. Wilson and St??phane Guilloteau have been edited by Miroslava Dessauges-Zavadsky and Daniel Pfenniger. The book is part of the series of Saas-Fee Advanced Courses published since 1971. The targeted audience are graduate PhD and advanced undergraduate students, but the book also serves as reference for post-doctoral researchers or newcomers to the field |

| Title | Scattering and Structures : Essentials and Analogies in Quantum Physics |
| Author(s) | Povh, Bogdan;Rosina, Mitja |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2017. |
| Description | XVII, 227 p. 119 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Quantum physics may appear complicated, especially if one forgets the "big picture" and gets lost in the details. However, it can become clearer and less tangled if one applies a few fundamental concepts so that simplified approaches can emerge and estimated orders of magnitude become clear. Povh and Rosina???s Scattering and Structures presents the properties of quantum systems (elementary particles, nucleons, atoms, molecules, quantum gases, quantum liquids, stars, and early universe) with the help of elementary concepts and analogies between these seemingly different systems. In this new edition, sections on quantum gases and an up to date overview of elementary particles have been added |

| Title | Moons of the Solar System : From Giant Ganymede to Dainty Dactyl |
| Author(s) | Hall III, James A |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2016. |
| Description | XXVIII, 297 p. 133 illus., 57 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book captures the complex world of planetary moons, which are more diverse than Earth's sole satellite might lead you to believe. New missions continue to find more of these planetary satellites,??making an up to date guide more necessary than ever.????Why do Mercury and Venus have no moons at all???Earth's ??Moon, of course, is covered in the book with highly detailed maps.??Then we move outward to the moons of Mars, then on to many of the more notable asteroid moons, and finally to a list of less-notable ones.??All the major moons of the gas giant planets are covered in great detail, while??the lesser-known satellites of these worlds are also touched on.?? Readers will learn of the remarkable trans-Neptunian Objects ??? Pluto, Eris, Sedna, Quaoar ???including many of those that have been given scant attention in the literature.??More than just objects to read about,??the planets'??satellites provide us with important information about the history of the solar system. Projects to help us??learn more about??the moons are included??throughout the book.??Most amateur astronomers can name some of the more prominent moons in the solar system, but few are intimately familiar with the full variety that exists in our backyard: 146 and counting. As our understanding of the many bodies in our solar system broadens, this is an invaluable tour of our expanding knowledge of the moons both near and far |

| Title | Stellar Physics : Stellar Evolution and Stability |
| Author(s) | Bisnovatyi-Kogan, G.S |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2002. |
| Description | XV, 383 p. 26 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | "Stellar Physics" is a rather unique book among the growing literature on star formation and evolution. Not only gives the author, a leading expert in the field, a very thorough description of the current knowledge about stellar physics but he deals with equal care about the many problems that this field of research still faces. A bibliography with well over 650 entries will make this book an unparalleled source of references. "Stellar Evolution and Stability" is the second volume and can be read, as the first volume, as a largely independent work. It traces in great detail the evolution of the protostar towards the Main Sequence and further to the last stage of stellar evolution with its vast range from white dwarfs to the mighty supernovae explosions and blackhole formation. The book is concluded by special chapters on the stability of stars - dynamical, thermal and pulsational |

| Title | The Evolution of Galaxies : III ??? From Simple Approaches to Self-Consistent Models |
| Author(s) | Hensler, G;Stasinska, G;Harfst, S;Kroupa, P;Theis, C |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2003. |
| Description | XII, 686 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Galaxies have a history. This has become clear from recent sky surveys which have shown that distant galaxies, formed early in the life of the Universe, differ from the nearby ones. New observational windows at ultraviolet, infrared and millimetric wavelengths (provided by ROSAT, IRAM, IUE, IRAS, ISO) have revealed that galaxies contain a wealth of components: very hot gas, atomic hydrogen, molecules, dust, dark matter... A significant advance is expected from the results of new instruments (VLT, FIRST, XMM) which will allow one to explore the most distant Universe. Three Euroconferences were planned to punctuate this new epoch in galactic research, bringing together specialists in various fields of Astronomy. This book contains the proceedings of the third conference and presents the actual state-of-the-art of modelling galaxy evolution |
