Galaxies: Interactions and Induced Star Formation
Saas-Fee Advanced Course 26. Lecture Notes 1996 Swiss Society for Astrophysics and Astronomy
Inbunden, Engelska, 1998
1 064 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This volume contains the written version of the lectures given at the 26th course of the Saas-Fee series. The book represents a comprehensive review of the field of galaxy interaction. Galaxies are no longer seen as immutable objects - they evolve, interact, merge, blaze and reshape. Dynamic forces can induce powerful stellar activity able to transform the matter composition and morphology of galaxies. The lectures included in the book aim to further our understanding of the phenomena, giving a historical perspective and examining topics such as induced star formation. They are intended for graduate students and those studying astrophysics.

This volume contains the written versions of the lectures given at the 26th course of the renowned Saas-Fee series. The book represents a comprehensive and up-to-date review of the field of galaxy interaction. Nowadays, galaxies are no longer seen as immutable objects: they evolve, interact, merge, blaze, and reshape. Dynamic forces can induce powerful stellar activity able to transform the matter composition and morphology of galaxies. The lectures included in this book aim at a better understanding of these remarkable and fascinating phenomena. Though the book is intended for graduate students and young post-docs in astrophysics, it contains more advanced and original material, as well as historical perspectives, which will be of great interest to experts and astronomy teachers also.
