Book excerpt: Principles of Meteoritics examines the significance of meteorites in relation to cosmogony and to the origin of the planetary system. The book discusses the science of meteoritics and the sources of meteorites. Scientists study the morphology of meteorites to determine their motion in the atmosphere. The scope of such study includes all forms of meteorites, the circumstances of their fall to earth, their motion in the atmosphere, and their orbits in space. Meteoric bodies vary in sizes; in calculating their motion in interplanetary space, astronomers apply the laws of Kepler. In the region of retardation, the direction of motion of the meteoric body changes, and a break in the visible and real trajectories follows. The angle of fall of meteorites at a vertical line on the surface of the Earth measures between 20 degrees to 30 degrees. The text also discusses the Tunguska and Sikhote-alin meteorites, two gigantic meteorites that fell in the U.S.S.R. The text also discusses the chemistry, the mineralogy, the petrography, and the physical properties of meteorites. The book is suitable for astronomers, geologists, and general readers who have an interest in sky watching.

Book Synopsis Astronomy: a Handbook by : G.D. Roth
Download or read book Astronomy: a Handbook written by G.D. Roth and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several decades have elapsed since the publication of any similar book in the German language. The lack of such a book has been felt keenly by all friends of astronomy. In our space age, astronomical knowledge arouses public interest more and more. Practical observation at the telescope depends more than anything else on such knowledge. The educational value of such a training is undisputed. On the other hand, the work of the amateur astronomer can also contribute essentially to the work of the professionals. It is from these points of view that this handbook aims to help with versatile advice. At the same time, the book intends to show the wide range of applied astronomy, as it presents itself to the friend of the stars; in mathematical-physical fields, in precision mechanics and optics, and last but not least in the area of social relations. Beyond the circle of amateur astronomers the book is addressed to lecturers, teachers, students and pupils. It wishes to serve them as a guide to "astronomical experiments", which we suggest should be performed in primary and secondary schools, specialist colleges, and extramural courses.

Book Synopsis The History of Meteoritics and Key Meteorite Collections by : Gerald Joseph Home McCall
Download or read book The History of Meteoritics and Key Meteorite Collections written by Gerald Joseph Home McCall and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2006 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Special Publication has 24 papers with an international authorship, and is prefaced by an introductory overview which presents highlights in the field. The first section covers the acceptance by science of the reality of the falls of rock and metal from the sky, an account that takes the reader from BCE (before common era) to the nineteenth century. The second section details some of the world's most important collections in museums - their origins and development. The Smithsonian chapter also covers the astonishingly numerous finds in the cold desert of Antarctica by American search parties. There are also contributions covering the finds by Japanese parties in the Yamato mountains and the equally remarkable discoveries in the hot deserts of Australia, North Africa, Oman and the USA. The other seven chapters take the reader through the revolution in scientific research on meteoritics in the later part of the twentieth century, including terrestrial impact cratering and extraordinary showers of glass from the sky; tektites, now known to be Earth-impact-sourced. Finally, the short epilogue looks to the future.
Book Synopsis Advances in Space Science and Technology by : Frederick I. Ordway
Download or read book Advances in Space Science and Technology written by Frederick I. Ordway and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-12-02 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in Space Science and Technology, Volume 7 provides an in depth discussion of both resources and base construction on the Moon. This book discusses the Moon as the nearest astronomical objective and the logical place where man will accumulate the experience needed for more ambitious enterprises. Organized into seven chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the science of selenology and examines possible substances from which propellants may be processed. This text then assesses the lunar environment in terms of mining and engineering operations. Other chapters consider the problems associated with the location of useful materials, processing propellants, and their storage and transfer. This book discusses as well the utilization of structures made from materials imported from Earth and of those prepared from indigenous materials. The final chapter deals with four major phenomena, namely, interplanetary plasma, magnetic fields, cosmic rays, and dust. This book is a valuable resource for space scientists and astronomers.

Book Synopsis Origin and Distribution of the Elements by : L. H. Ahrens
Download or read book Origin and Distribution of the Elements written by L. H. Ahrens and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2015-12-04 with total page 1201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Origin and Distribution of the Elements, Volume 30 presents detailed studies of trace elements and isotopes and the use of these data with the techniques of physical and organic chemistry to make relevant interpretations in geology. This book discusses some of the problems of applied chemistry. Organized into five sections encompassing 89 chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the theories of nucleosynthesis that are based on broad empirical foundations involving experiment in nuclear physics and observation in geophysics and astronomy. This text then explores the primeval abundance of the elements wherein the composition of the material from which the Galaxy is formed. Other chapters consider the production of helium in the galaxy. This book discusses as well the dynamics of the cores of highly evolved massive stars. The final chapter deals with the measurements of site populations in crystal structures by electron diffraction and X-ray. Physicists, astronomers, geologists, and geochemists will find this book extremely useful.

Download or read book Mn Manganese written by Wolfgang Töpper and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume is the first of a series describing Mn minerals. There has been no attempt to provide a thorough (bibliographically complete) coverage of the literature. Rather, a selection of papers was undertaken to cover especially the various aspects of occurrence and genesis. Papers that only mention an occurrence of a minerat species without additional data will not be taken into account, except if they represent an unusual type of occurrence. The volume starts with a brief outline of the chemical and geo-/cosmochemical character istics of Mn; its abundance and distribution in the cosmos and on earth; and its distribution in minerals. The main part describes the native metal, its solid solutions with Fe or Al, and silicides and carbide; the sulfides and related compounds; the halogenides and oxyhalogenides; and the oxides of type MO. The minerat descriptions comprise the following topics: occurrence (comprising data on paragenesis, intergrowths, inclusions, and alteration); chemistry (comprising complete analysis, formula, diadochy, and the relationship be tween composition and type of geological occurrence or composition and physical proper lies); crystal form and structure; optical and other physical properties; and chemical and thermal behavior.
