Radio astronomy and its technological development have led to significant progress in galactic astronomy and contributed to understanding interstellar matter and galactic structures. The book begins with the fundamental physics of radio-wave radiation, i.e., black body radiation, thermal emission, synchrotron radiation, and HI and molecular line emissions. The author then gives overviews of ingredients of galactic physics, including interstellar matter such as the neutral (HI), molecular hydrogen, and ionized gases, as well as magnetic fields in galaxies. In addition, more advanced topics relevant to the Galaxy and galaxies are also contained here: star formation, supernova remnants, the Galactic Center and black holes, galactic dynamics and dark-matter halos, magnetism of galaxies, interstellar gases in galaxies, and starbursts. A unique feature of this book is its focus on how to analyze and interpret radio astronomical observation data and how to describe the underlying physics from such data. A wealth of figures and images will be a great help for undergraduate and graduate students to understand the contents. Furthermore, the well-summarized contents of theory and observation will appeal to young researchers as well. 410 0$aLecture Notes in Physics,$x0075-8450 ;$v935 606 $aObservations, Astronomical 606 $aAstronomy?Observations 606 $aAstrophysics 606 $aOptics 606 $aElectrodynamics 606 $aGravitation 606 $aPhysical measurements 606 $aMeasurement    606 $aAstronomy, Observations and Techniques$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22014 606 $aAstrophysics and Astroparticles$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22022 606 $aClassical Electrodynamics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21070 606 $aClassical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19070 606 $aMeasurement Science and Instrumentation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31040 615 0$aObservations, Astronomical. 615 0$aAstronomy?Observations. 615 0$aAstrophysics. 615 0$aOptics. 615 0$aElectrodynamics. 615 0$aGravitation. 615 0$aPhysical measurements. 615 0$aMeasurement   . 615 14$aAstronomy, Observations and Techniques. 615 24$aAstrophysics and Astroparticles. 615 24$aClassical Electrodynamics. 615 24$aClassical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory. 615 24$aMeasurement Science and Instrumentation. 676 $a522.682 700 $aSofue$b Yoshiaki$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0962418 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910250049703321 996 $aGalactic Radio Astronomy$92182316 997 $aUNINA
