The author spent over six years interviewing leading space experts from around the world to learn why lunar habitats and the creation of a permanent presence on the Moon are an essential next step to human exploration and settlement in space. Practical reasons related to energy, telecommunications and networking, robotic systems, medical and scientific research, material processing, and more show why it must be the Moon First and Mars Second. These findings and recommendations have been adopted by current NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine, as well as the current U. S. president. The research in this text reflects the author's experiences working internally within NASA Headquarters, the FAA Commercial Spaceflight Office, as well as the International Space University. It is partially based on Reneau?s award-winning Harvard thesis in conjunction with her Master's in International Relations. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in space development. 606 $aManned space flight 606 $aAstronautics and state$zUnited States 607 $aMoon$xExploration 607 $aMars (Planet)$xExploration 615 0$aManned space flight. 615 0$aAstronautics and state 676 $a629.45 700 $aReneau$b Allyson$01220944 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996466735803316 996 $aMoon first and Mars second$92830451 997 $aUNISA LEADER 06959nam 22017175 450 001 9910154744303321 005 20230808192407.0 010 $a1-4008-8254-0 024 7 $a10.1515/9781400882540 035 $a(CKB)3710000000631352 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4738740 035 $a(DE-B1597)468035 035 $a(OCoLC)979968812 035 $a(DE-B1597)9781400882540 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000631352 100 $a20190708d2016 fg 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 13$aAn Introduction to G-Functions.

CAUCHY'S THEOREM -- $tBIBLIOGRAPHY -- $tINDEX 330 $aWritten for advanced undergraduate and first-year graduate students, this book aims to introduce students to a serious level of p-adic analysis with important implications for number theory. The main object is the study of G-series, that is, power series y=aij=0 Ajxj with coefficients in an algebraic number field K. These series satisfy a linear differential equation Ly=0 with LIK(x) [d/dx] and have non-zero radii of convergence for each imbedding of K into the complex numbers. They have the further property that the common denominators of the first s coefficients go to infinity geometrically with the index s. After presenting a review of valuation theory and elementary p-adic analysis together with an application to the congruence zeta function, this book offers a detailed study of the p-adic properties of formal power series solutions of linear differential equations. In particular, the p-adic radii of convergence and the p-adic growth of coefficients are studied. Recent work of Christol, Bombieri, André, and Dwork is treated and augmented. The book concludes with Chudnovsky's theorem: the analytic continuation of a G -series is again a G -series. This book will be indispensable for those wishing to study the work of Bombieri and André on global relations and for the study of the arithmetic properties of solutions of ordinary differential equations. 410 0$aAnnals of mathematics studies ;$vno. 133. 606 $aH-functions 606 $ap-adic analysis 610 $aAdjoint. 610 $aAlgebraic Method. 610 $aAlgebraic closure. 610 $aAlgebraic number field. 610 $aAlgebraic number theory. 610 $aAlgebraic variety. 610 $aAlgebraically closed field. 610 $aAnalytic continuation. 610 $aAnalytic function. 610 $aArgument principle. 610 $aArithmetic. 610 $aAutomorphism. 610 $aBearing (navigation). 610 $aBinomial series. 610 $aCalculation. 610 $aCardinality. 610 $aCartesian coordinate system. 610 $aCauchy sequence. 610 $aCauchy's theorem (geometry). 610 $aCoefficient. 610 $aCohomology. 610 $aCommutative ring. 610 $aComplete intersection. 610 $aComplex analysis. 610 $aConjecture. 610 $aDensity theorem. 610 $aDifferential equation. 610 $aDimension (vector space). 610 $aDirect sum. 610 $aDiscrete valuation. 610 $aEigenvalues and eigenvectors. 610 $aElliptic curve. 610 $aEquation. 610 $aEquivalence class. 610 $aEstimation. 610 $aExistential quantification. 610 $aExponential function. 610 $aExterior algebra. 610 $aField of fractions. 610 $aFinite field. 610 $aFormal power series. 610 $aFuchs' theorem. 610 $aG-module. 610 $aGalois extension. 610 $aGalois group. 610 $aGeneral linear group. 610 $aGeneric point. 610 $aGeometry. 610 $aHypergeometric function. 610 $aIdentity matrix. 610 $aInequality (mathematics). 610 $aIntercept method. 610 $aIrreducible element. 610 $aIrreducible polynomial. 610 $aLaurent series. 610 $aLimit of a sequence. 610 $aLinear differential equation. 610 $aLowest common denominator. 610 $aMathematical induction. 610 $aMeromorphic function. 610 $aModular arithmetic. 610 $aModule (mathematics). 610 $aMonodromy. 610 $aMonotonic function. 610 $aMultiplicative group. 610 $aNatural number. 610 $aNewton polygon. 610 $aNumber theory. 610 $aP-adic number. 610 $aParameter. 610 $aPermutation. 610 $aPolygon. 610 $aPolynomial. 610 $aProjective line. 610 $aQ.E.D. 610 $aQuadratic residue. 610 $aRadius of convergence. 610 $aRational function. 610 $aRational number. 610 $aResidue field. 610 $aRiemann hypothesis. 610 $aRing of integers. 610 $aRoot of unity. 610 $aSeparable polynomial. 610 $aSequence. 610 $aSiegel's lemma. 610 $aSpecial case. 610 $aSquare root. 610 $aSubring. 610 $aSubset. 610 $aSummation. 610 $aTheorem. 610 $aTopology of uniform convergence. 610 $aTranspose. 610 $aTriangle inequality. 610 $aUnipotent. 610 $aValuation ring. 610 $aWeil conjecture. 610 $aWronskian. 610 $aY-intercept. 615 0$aH-functions. 615 0$ap-adic analysis. 676 $a515/.55 700 $aDwork$b Bernard, $053745 702 $aGerotto$b Giovanni, 702 $aSullivan$b Francis J., 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154744303321 996 $aAn Introduction to G-Functions.
