    An outgrowth of the first Asia-Pacific Regional School on the International Heliophysical Year (IHY), this volume contains a collection of review articles describing the universal physical processes in the heliospace ...
  • Plasmas: the first state of matter 
    Krishan, V (Cambridge University Press, 2014)
    Most astronomers believe that the universe began about 15 billion years ago when an explosion led to its expansion and cooling. The present state of the universe compels us to believe that the universe was extremely hot ...
  • High resolution imaging: detectors and applications 
    Saha, S. K (Pan Stanford publishing, 2015)
    Interferometric observations need snapshots of very high time resolution of the order of (i) frame integration of about 100 Hz or (ii) photon-recording rates of several megahertz (MHz). Detectors play a key role in ...
  • Waves and oscillations in nature: an introduction 
    Satya Narayanan, A; Saha, S. K (CRC Press, 2015)
    Waves and oscillations are found in large scales (galactic) and microscopic scales (neutrino) in nature. Their dynamics and behavior heavily depend on the type of medium through which they propagate.Waves and Oscillations ...
  • Hydrogen deficient stars and related objects: proceeding of the 87th colloquium of the international astronomical union held at Mysore, India, 10–15 November 1985 
    Hunger, K (editor); Schonberner, D (editor); Kameswara Rao, N (editor) (D. Reidel Publishing Company, 1986)
    The first helium star was discovered in 1942, the first scientific meeting on the subject, however, took place in 1985. The meeting was hence long overdue for, in the meantime, a substantial amount of material had been ...
  • Solar polarization: proceedings of an international workshop held in St. Petersburg, Russia, 8–12 May, 1995 
    Stenflo, J. O (editor); Nagendra, K. N (editor) (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1996)
    Much progress has been made in recent years in understanding the complex physics of polarized radiation in the sun and stars. This physics includes vector radiative transfer and spectral line formation in the presence of ...

    We have in this volume, compiled a connected account of the proceedings of the Symposium on Wolf-Rayet and High-Temperature Stars held at Buenos Aires. The Organizing Committee had assigned broad areas of topical interest ...
  • Worlds beyond our own: the search for habitable planets 
    Sengupta, S (Springer International Publishing, 2015)
    This is a book on planets: Solar system planets and dwarf planets. And planets outside our solar system – exoplanets. How did they form? What types of planets are there and what do they have in common? How do they differ? ...
  • Recent advances in spectroscopy: theoretical, astrophysical and experimental perspectives 
    Chaudhuri, R. K (editor); Mekkaden, M. V (editor); Raveendran, A. V (editor); Narayanan, A. S (editor) (Springer-Verlag, 2010)
    In recent years there have been great advances in the fields of laboratory and astronomical spectroscopy. These have been equally matched by large-scale computations using state-of-the-art theoretical methods. The accurate ...
  • Many-body methods for atoms and molecules
