Lecture Notes in Physics,0075-8450 ;413Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph3-540-56371-7 The galactic centre -- Activity in galactic nuclei -- Observations and their implications for the inner parsec of AGN -- Infrared activity of galaxies -- Radio galaxies and jets -- Methods in astronomical image processing with special applications to the reduction of CCD data -- Multivariate methods for data analysis -- Multivariate methods for data analysis -- Multivariate methods for data analysis.This outstanding collection of surveys addresses graduate and predoctoral students. It reports on theoretical research and observational data on active galactic nuclei: The enigma of the nuclei of galaxies with their central "monster" driving the vast range of activity observed in quasars, radio galaxies, Seyferts, starburst galaxies and even our own Galaxy are explored in this volume. Topics covered include: the impact of recent measurements in the infrared and radio region on our knowledge of thenucleus of our Galaxy; the spectra and classification of active galactic nuclei, the properties of their host galaxies, their cosmological distribution and evolution, the role of stars and thehydrodynamics of the interstellar medium in the nuclei; the description of the inner parsec of a standard active galactic nucleus based on direct interpretation of the observations; the infrared activity of galaxies; the physics of radio galaxies and their jets, emphasizing the physics ofgas flow and high-energy particle interactions as well as shock acceleration. These are all discussed in considerable depth and presented inself-contained chapters with exhaustive reference lists of the scientific literature.Lecture Notes in Physics,0075-8450 ;413Observations, AstronomicalAstronomy—ObservationsAstrophysicsGeophysicsElementary particles (Physics)Quantum field theoryAtomsPhysicsAstronomy, Observations and Techniqueshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22014Astrophysics and Astroparticleshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22022Geophysics/Geodesyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G18009Elementary Particles, Quantum Field Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23029Atomic, Molecular, Optical and Plasma Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24009Observations, Astronomical.Astronomy—Observations.Astrophysics.Geophysics.Elementary particles (Physics).Quantum field theory.Atoms.Physics.Astronomy, Observations and Techniques.Astrophysics and Astroparticles.Geophysics/Geodesy.Elementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory.Atomic, Molecular, Optical and Plasma Physics.523.1/12/028Sandqvist Aageedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtRay Thomas Pedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtPredoctoral Astrophysics SchoolBOOK9910257432503321Central activity in galaxies1502077UNINA
