In this work, Prof. Arnold Hanslmeier provides modern and fascinating astronomical knowledge. The book begins with a description of the origin of the universe and goes on to dark matter, black holes and the formation of the solar system. Finally, it is rounded off at the end by the exciting question: Are we alone in the universe? In this book, which originated from a lecture given at the University of Graz for students of all faculties, the a...

This textbook provides the basic theoretical and practical knowledge of astronomy and astrophysics. It provides an overview from classical astronomy and observational methods to solar physics and astrophysics of stars and galaxies. It concludes with chapters on cosmology, astrobiology, and mathematical and numerical methods. Numerous color illustrations, examples of calculations, and exercises with solutions make this work a useful companion t...

Die Beobachtungsmöglichkeiten der modernen Astrophysik werden immer zahlreicher. Sie reichen von optischen Teleskopen über Weltraumteleskope im Infraroten bis zu Radioteleskopen und von Gravitationswellendetektoren bis hin zu Neutrinoobservatorien. Während die einen im Weltraum ein Augenmerk auf das Licht werfen, nehmen andere unter Wasser kleinste Teilchen unter die Lupe oder messen Störungen der Raumzeit, die kleiner sind als der Durchmesser...

This book offers an overview of solar physics with a focus on solar activity, particularly the activity cycle. It is known that solar activity varies periodically, but there are also phases of intermittency, such as the Maunder minimum, during which solar activity is very low or high over several decades. The book provides a brief introduction to chaos theory and investigates solar activity in terms of its chaotic behavior. It also discusses h...

In diesem Werk vermittelt Prof. Arnold Hanslmeier moderne und faszinierende astronomische Kenntnisse. Das Buch beginnt mit der Beschreibung des Ursprungs des Universums und reicht bis hin zu dunkler Materie, schwarzen Löchern und der Entstehung des Sonnensystems. Abgerundet wird es am Ende schließlich durch die spannende Frage: Sind wir allein im Universum?In dem Buch, das aus einer an der Universität Graz gehaltenen Vorlesung für Studierende ...

The search for exoplanets and habitable objects in general is one of the fastest growing and most prominent fields in modern astrophysics. This book provides an overview on habitability on exoplanets. Habitability is strongly dependent on stellar activity. Therefore, space weather effects on objects in the solar system as well as on exoplanets are discussed.The concept of the book is to introduce the topics and then discuss actual scientific p...

Dieses Buch behandelt die Bedeutung des Lichts und die Beobachtung von elektromagnetischer Strahlung für die moderne Astrophysik. Dazu werden zuerst die physikalischen Eigenschaften von Licht untersucht und der Frage nachgegangen, was dieses denn jetzt ist - Welle und/oder Teilchen? Der Leser erfährt, wie man mit modernen Teleskopen das Licht ferner Sterne beobachten kann und welche Informationen jeweils im gemessenen elektromagnetischen Spekt...

This volume covers aspects of life on Earth with all its diversity and the possibilities of extraterrestrial life. It presents contributions by experts from 20 countries who discuss astrobiology emphasizing life “as we know it” to extraterrestrial places. In the chapters on life in the Cosmos, the authors emphasized in particular certain planets and satellites within the Solar System. On Earth, life also exists at the edge with harsh limitatio...

In diesem Buch zeigt Professor Hanslmeier wie spannend und zugänglich die Astronomie sein kann. Bereits mit einfachen Beobachtungen kann man viele Antworten auf die Grundfragen der Menschheit gewinnen: Wie ist alles entstanden? Wo ist unser Platz im Universum? Der Leser erhält am Anfang des Buches praktische Informationen um die Faszination des Nachthimmels selbst zu erleben:  - Worauf kommt es beim Erwerb eines Teleskops an? - Welche Details ...

This second edition is a great enhancement of literature which will help the reader get deeper into the specific topics. There are new sections included such as space weather data sources and examples, new satellite missions, and the latest results. At the end a comprehensive index is given which will allow the reader to quickly find his topics of interest. The Sun and Space weather are two rapidly evolving topics. The importance of the Sun f...

The solar system has a rather well-known history. Looking at the present situation, one might get the impression that it was a rather stable and well-defined system: the orbits of the planets appear to be stable, climate and atmospheres on the planets have been determined, the risk of collision with other bodies (comets, asteroids, meteorites) seems to be small. However it is known today that the evolution of life on Earth was neither a steady...
