This dynamic, interdisciplinary field requires practitioners to apply knowledge from atmospheric and climate science, astronomy and astrophysics, chemistry, geology and geophysics, planetary science, and even biology. Exoplanetary Atmospheres provides an essential introduction to the theoretical foundations of this cutting-edge new science.Exoplanetary Atmospheres covers the physics of radiation, fluid dynamics, atmospheric chemistry, and atmospheric escape. It draws on simple analytical models to aid learning, and features a wealth of problem sets, some of which are open-ended. This authoritative and accessible graduate textbook uses a coherent and self-consistent set of notation and definitions throughout, and also includes appendixes containing useful formulae in thermodynamics and vector calculus as well as selected Python scripts.Exoplanetary Atmospheres prepares PhD students for research careers in the field, and is ideal for self-study as well as for use in a course setting.The first graduate textbook on the theory of exoplanetary atmospheresUnifies knowledge from atmospheric and climate science, astronomy and astrophysics, chemistry, planetary science, and moreCovers radiative transfer, fluid dynamics, atmospheric chemistry, and atmospheric escapeProvides simple analytical models and a wealth of problem setsIncludes appendixes on thermodynamics, vector calculus, tabulated Gibbs free energies, and Python scriptsSolutions manual (available only to professors) 410 0$aPrinceton series in astrophysics. 606 $aExtrasolar planets 606 $aExtrasolar planets$xAtmospheres 615 0$aExtrasolar planets. 615 0$aExtrasolar planets$xAtmospheres. 676 $a523.8/3 686 $aUS 7400$2rvk 700 $aHeng$b Kevin, $01246542 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154296603321 996 $aExoplanetary Atmospheres$92890254 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02395oam 2200589I 450 001 9910787716303321 005 20230803032216.0 010 $a1-317-84910-8 010 $a1-317-84911-6 010 $a1-315-82918-5 024 7 $a10.4324/9781315829180 035 $a(CKB)2670000000518661 035 $a(EBL)1619114 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001153891 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11676741 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001153891 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11160527 035 $a(PQKB)10753221 035 $a(OCoLC)874175331 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1619114 035 $a(OCoLC)897461835 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000518661 100 $a20180331e20131895 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aBuddhist Mahayana texts 210 1$aLondon :$cRoutledge,$d2013. 215 $a1 online resource (459 p.) 225 1 $aSacred Books of the East ;$vVolume 49 300 $aThe texts of pt. 2 are translated from the Sanskrit, except the Amitayur-dhyana-sutra, which is from a Chinese translation. 300 $aFirst published 1895-1910 by Curzon Press Ltd. 311 $a0-7007-1553-3 327 $apt. 1.
