By Alessandra Celletti (Author), Ettore Perozzi (Author)
The purpose of this ebook is to illustrate to a much wider viewers, in addition to to a extra expert viewers, the various attention-grabbing points of recent celestial mechanics. It units out to do that with no using arithmetic. After giving the reader the technical instruments wanted for a uncomplicated knowing of the underlying actual phenomena (using purely user-friendly mathematics), evidence and figures are supplied on old occasions, sleek discoveries and destiny purposes. Contents are divided into significant subject matters the place the 3 "souls" of recent celestial mechanics (dynamical structures, sun procedure and stellar structures, spaceflight dynamics) play an enormous position.
