Astronomy and Astrophysics (Books in English)

Эта книга рассказывает о новейших астрономических открытиях, о физических идеях и астрофизических гипотезах, об удивительных загадках физики Вселенной, которые еще предстоит разгадать.

Recent discoveries in cosmology have changed this science drastically. In a new world picture emerging now, the major... (More)

The book presents the dynamic theory of gravitational interaction — gravidynamics, which agrees with modern theories of other fields, e.g. classical electrodynamics, quantum electrodynamics, quantum chromodynamics. Gravitational field is seen as consisting of two components — the tensor and the scalar... (More)

From Brian Greene, one of the world's leading physicists, comes a grand tour of the universe that makes us look at reality in a completely different way.

Space and time form the very fabric of the cosmos. Yet they remain among the most mysterious of concepts. Is space an entity? Why does time have a... (More)

The summer science school of modern astrophysics was held between July 15–26, 2014, in Zelenogorsk, near Saint Petersburg.

Forty young scientists from Russia, Armenia, Vietnam, Italy, Finland, Germany, India, Turkey, and Uzbekistan participated in the school. They were all selected by the organizing... (More)

Some non-traditional phenomenological approaches and methods are suggested for reconstruction of the analytical structure of observed processes and signals. These are, in particular, a family of methods for revealing latent periodicities, further generalization of the classic weighted least-squares method,... (More)

The book describes spectral luminescent properties of a large group of minerals. This is the first publication of the kind that has no analogues in the scientific literature on the subject.

Part I presents classification of luminescent substances in nature at several systematic levels: global luminescent... (More)

This book is devoted to the processes of elastic and inelastic hadron-nucleus interactions at moderate (  1 GeV) and high energies. After short discussion of the main properties of atomic nuclei we present the standard Glauber theory for elastic and quasielastic hadron-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus... (More)

The endless and mysterious history of origin and development of celestial bodies, the evolution of the Solar System, comets, asteroids, terrestrial and giant planets, small bodies and enigmatic planet rings --- all these are the material on which a number of cosmogonical hypotheses are built.

The author... (More)

Field Physics is the next generation physics. Modern science mostly describes the nature of events without looking at the reasons why they happen, i.e. it answers the question how rather than why.

For the first time, within the scope of Field Physics, we can look beyond the modern paradigm and understand... (More)

This book is ideal for those who wish to start learning about the intriguing modern concepts of astrophysics: the birth and evolution of the universe, its large-scale structure, galaxies and their clusters, and stars. The book provides just enough text to give a feeling of what it is all about, such... (More)

This book looks at motion of particles using mathematical methods of physical observable values in General Relativity. It is shown that aside for mass-bearing particles and light-like particles "zero-particles" can exist in fully degenerated space-time (zero-space). For a regular observer zero-particles... (More)

The book builds theory of motion of charged particles with spin in four-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian space. The theory employs the mathematical apparatus of chronometric invariants by A.L. Zelmanov (physical observable values in the General Theory of Relativity). Numerous special effects in electrodynamics,... (More)

Fundamental and derived physical quantities are geometrized on the basis of the hypothesis of global stationary state of our Universe. A new (L) system of physical quantities based on a single quantity (length) is created and developed. Numerical values of seven base units as well as fundamental physical... (More)

In the monograph it is justified the calculation approach of electromagnetic and gravitational interactions of moving bodies, in which the space, time and mass do not depend on the movement. The main concepts of mechanics are analysed and determined. From the experimental laws the main electrodynamic... (More)

In this edition the principal works of K.E.Tsiolkovsky dealing with rocketry and the theory of interplanetary communications were published. These writings had brought him the priority as the founder of theoretical cosmonautics. The article by academician S.P.Korolyov "On the Practical Significance of... (More)
