Contopoulos, N.K. Spyrou, L. Vlahos1st ed. 1994.Berlin, Heidelberg :Springer Berlin Heidelberg :Imprint: Springer,1994.1 online resource (XIV, 417 p.) Lecture Notes in Physics,0075-8450 ;433Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph3-540-57983-4 Lectures on stellar dynamics -- Order and chaos -- Self-consistent models of spiral galaxies -- The study of instability in stellar dynamics -- Elliptical galaxies -- Direct methods for N-Body simulations -- Fundamentals of gas-dynamical simulations -- Galaxy formation.This book provides an in-depth coverage of modern research on dynamical systems. The first part discusses stellar dynamics, integrable systems, the transition to chaos and instabilities in stellar dynamics as well as the dynamics of spiral galaxies. Models are given and compared with observations. The second part is devoted to the direct method of N-body simulations, to gas dynamics simulations and to galaxy formation. Special care is taken to give to a pedagogical presentation of the material which makes this a unique text well suited for graduate courses in astrophysics.Lecture Notes in Physics,0075-8450 ;433GeophysicsSpace sciencesPhysicsQuantum computersSpintronicsQuantum physicsGeophysics/Geodesyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G18009Space Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics)https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22030Mathematical Methods in Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19013Numerical and Computational Physics, Simulationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19021Quantum Information Technology, Spintronicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31070Quantum Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19080Geophysics.Space sciences.Physics.Quantum computers.Spintronics.Quantum physics.Geophysics/Geodesy.Space Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics).Mathematical Methods in Physics.Numerical and Computational Physics, Simulation.Quantum Information Technology, Spintronics.Quantum Physics.523.1/12Contopoulos Gedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtSpyrou N.Kedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtVlahos Ledthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtEuropean Astrophysics Doctoral Network.Astrophysics SchoolBOOK996466678903316Galactic dynamics and n-body simulations1502120UNISA
