Consequences of quantum gravity on grander scales are expected to be enormous.  In Quantum Cosmology, A Fundamental Description of the Universe, Martin Bojowald discusses his theory to see how black holes behave and where our universe came from.  Applications like loop quantum gravity and cosmology have by now shed much light on cosmic evolution of a universe in a fundamental, microscopic description.  Modern techniques demonstrate how the universe may have come from a non-singular phase before the Big Bang, how equations for the evolution of structure can be derived, how observations could be used to test these claims, but  also what fundamental limitations remain to our knowledge of the universe before the Big Bang.Lecture Notes in Physics,0075-8450 ;835GravitationQuantum physicsClassical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19070Quantum Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19080Gravitation.Quantum physics.Classical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory.Quantum Physics.530.1Bojowald Martinauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut515320BOOK996466709903316Quantum Cosmology855581UNISA04027nam 22007093u 450 991096267820332120251117090825.0978661298606297812829860601282986066(CKB)2550000000042832(EBL)738761(OCoLC)742333582(SSID)ssj0000541596(PQKBManifestationID)11367199(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000541596(PQKBWorkID)10499124(PQKB)10654951(MiAaPQ)EBC738761(Perlego)799771(EXLCZ)99255000000004283220150316d2010|||| u|| |engur|n|---|||||txtccrStorks, Ibises and Spoonbills of the World1st ed.London Bloomsbury Publishing20101 online resource (392 p.)Helm Identification GuidesDescription based upon print version of record.9781408134993 1408134993 9780123227300 0123227305 COVER; CONTENTS; INTRODUCTION; CLASSIFICATION; CONSERVATION; COURTSHIP AND REPRODUCTION; FEEDING BEHAVIOUR AND ECOLOGY; SPECIES DESCRIPTIONS; American Wood Stork (Mycteria americana); Milky Stork (Mycteria cinerea); Yellowbilled Stork (Mycteria ibis); Painted Stork (Mycteria leucocephala); Asian Openbill Stork (Anastomus oscitans); African Openbill Stork (Anastomus lamelligerus); Black Stork (Ciconia nigra); Abdim's Stork (Ciconia abdimii); Woollynecked Stork (Ciconia episcopus); Storm's Stork (Ciconia stormi); Maguari Stork (Ciconia maguari); White Stork (Ciconia ciconia)Oriental White Stork (Ciconia boyciana)Blacknecked Stork (Ephippiorhynchus asiaticus); Saddlebill Stork (Ephippiorhynchus senegalensis); Jabiru Stork (Jabiru mycteria); Lesser Adjutant Stork (Leptoptilos javanicus); Greater Adjutant Stork (Leptoptilos dubius); Marabou Stork (Leptoptilos crumeniferus); Shoebill (Balaeniceps rex); American White Ibis (Eudocimus ruber); Barefaced Ibis (Phimosus infuscatus); Glossy Ibis (Plegadis falcinellus); Whitefaced Ibis (Plegadis chihi); Puna Ibis (Plegadis ridgwayi); Sharp tailed Ibis (Cercibis oxycerca); Plumbeous Ibis (Harpiprion caerulescens)Buffnecked Ibis (Theristicus caudatus)Green Ibis (Mesembrinibis ctryennensis); Hadada Ibis (Bostrychia hagedash); Wattled Ibis (Bostrychia carunculata); Olive Ibis (Bostrychia olivacea); Spot breasted Ibis (Bostrychia rara); Madagascar Crested Ibis (Lophotibis cristata); Sacred Ibis (Threskiomis aethiopicus); Oriental White Ibis (Threskiomis melanocephalus); Australian White Ibis (Threskiomis molucca); Strawnecked Ibis (Threskiomis spinicollis); Waldrapp Ibis (Geronticus eremita); Bald Ibis (Geronticus calvus); Black Ibis (Pseudibis papillosa); Giant Ibis (Thaumatibis gigantea)Oriental Crested Ibis (Nipponia nippon)Eurasian Spoonbill (Platalea leucorodia); Royal Spoonbill (Platalea regia); Blackfaced Spoonbill (Platalea minor); African Spoonbill (Platalea alba); Yellowbilled Spoon bill (Platalea flavipes); Roseate Spoonbill (Platalea ajaja); APPENDIX; BIBLIOGRAPHY; INDEX; A; B; C; E; G; H; J; L; M; N; O; P; R; S; T; W; YEverything you ever wanted to know about storks, ibises and spoonbills.Helm Identification GuidesIbisSpoonbillsStorksIbis.Spoonbills.Storks.598.34Hancock James1871537Kushlan James A1200618Kahl M.
