Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Modem dynamics is increasingly participating in the solution of problems raised by as tronomical observations. This new relationship is being fostered on one side by the im provements in the observations, which in recent years contributed several discoveries of new systems, such as the objects in the Kuiper belt, the pulsar and star companions, to speak only of the most striking ones, and, on the other hand, by the progresses in modem dynamics. The progresses in modem dynamics are due to two factors: the dissemination of fast computers, allowing the numerical studies of very complex systems by a large number of scientists, and the improvement in our understanding of the complex behaviour of Hamiltonian systems. KAM and Nekhorochev theories have shed a light on the subtle and surprizing interplays between regular and chaotic motions; numerical experiments and analytical approximations have shown how these peculiarities are indeed present in astronomically important systems and are instrumental in understanding their formation and evolution.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume of proceedings contains review and research papers concerning the impact of modern dynamics in astronomy. Modern dynamics is playing an increasing role in the solution of problems raised by astronomical observations. This new relationship is being fostered by recent discoveries of new systems, such as the Kuiper belt, pulsar and star companions; by progress in theoretical dynamics, like KAM and Nekhorochev theories and adiabatic invariants; and by the dissemination of fast computers. The two main areas of applications which are discussed are `stellar systems', including dynamics of galaxies, and `small bodies in the solar system'. In both cases the concepts and tools of chaotic motion are considered and fully discussed. This book is an up-to-date source of information for astronomers interested in the dynamics of the solar system or of stellar systems, as well as for dynamicists who wish to understand the impact of modern theories of chaos in astronomy.…
