Description for The Evolution of Galaxies. III - From Simple Approaches to Self-consistent Models.
Hardback. Observational windows at ultraviolet, infrared and millimetric wavelengths have revealed that galaxies contain a wealth of components: very hot gas, atomic hydrogen, molecules, dust, and dark matter. Three Euroconferences were planned to punctuate this fresh epoch in galactic research. This book contains the proceedings of the third conference. Editor(s): Hensler, G.; Stasinska, Grazyna; Harfst, S. (Institute of Theoretical Physics and Astrophysics, University of Kiel, Germany); Kroupa, P. (Institute of Theoretical Physics and Astrophysics, University of Kiel, Germany); Theis, C. (Institute of Theoretical Physics and Astrophysics, University of Kiel, Germany). Num Pages: 686 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PGM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 38. Weight in Grams: 1155.
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.
