The hydrogen Lyman-alpha line is of utmost importance to many fields of astrophysics. This UV line being conveniently redshifted with distance to the visible and even near infrared wavelength ranges, it is observable from the ground, and provides the main observational window on the formation and evolution of high redshift galaxies. Absorbing systems that would otherwise go unnoticed are revealed through the Lyman-alpha forest, Lyman-limit, and damped Lyman-alpha systems, tracing the distribution of baryonic matter on large scales, and its chemical enrichment.
We are living an exciting epoch with the advent of new instruments and facilities, on board of satellites and on the ground. Wide field and very sensitive integral field spectrographs are becoming available on the ground, such as MUSE at the ESO VLT. The giant E-ELT and TMT telescopes will foster a quantum leap in sensitivity and both spatial and spectroscopic resolution, to the point of being able, perhaps, to measure directly the acceleration of the Hubble flow. In space, the JWST will open new possibilities to study the Lyman-alpha emission of primordial galaxies in the near infrared. As long as the Hubble Space Telescope will remain available, the UV-restframe properties of nearby galaxies will be accessible to our knowledge. Therefore, this Saas-Fee course appears very timely and should meet the interest of many young researchers.

Описание: This book investigates the debates and questions raised by cosmological fine-tuning. Waller argues that the only plausible explanation for the fine-tuning of the actual world is the existence of some kind of God-like-thing.
Through more than fifty Koans--pleasingly paradoxical vignettes following the ancient Zen tradition--leading physicist Anthony Aguirre takes the reader across the world from West to East, and through ideas spanning the age, breadth, and depth of the Universe.
Using these beguiling Koans (Could there be a civilization on a mote of dust? How much of your fate have you made? Who cleans the universe?) and a flair for explaining complex science, Aguirre covers cosmic questions that scientific giants from Aristotle to Galileo to Heisenberg have grappled with, from the meaning of quantum theory and the nature of time to the origin of multiple universes.
A playful and enlightening book, Cosmological Koans explores the strange hinterland between the deep structure of the physical world and our personal experience of it, giving readers what Einstein himself called "the most beautiful and deepest experience" anyone can have: a sense of the mysterious.

Описание: In 1584, while living in the household of Michel de Castelnau, the French Ambassador to the court of Queen Elizabeth of England, Giordano Bruno completed three books of cosmological dialogues: The Ash Wednesday Supper; On Cause, Principle and Unity; and the current volume, On the Infinite, the Universe and the Worlds. Drawing on the work of Lucretius, Nicholas da Cusa, Nicholas Copernicus and others, Bruno developed the theory of an infinitely extensive universe, filled with stars like our sun and planets like our own.Giordano Bruno's heretical ideas and forceful personality led to a turbulent life in which he travelled to most of the great academic and cultural centers of Europe, culminating in his trial and execution by the Roman Inquisition in 1600.Recently, this work and Giordano Bruno were referenced in the new series of Cosmos.

Описание: The ancient kalam cosmological argument maintains that the series of past events is finite and that therefore the universe began to exist. Two recent scientific discoveries have yielded plausible prima facie physical evidence for the beginning of the universe. The expansion of the universe points to its beginning—to a Big Bang—as one retraces the universe’s expansion in time. And the second law of thermodynamics, which implies that the universe’s energy is progressively degrading, suggests that the universe began with an initial low entropy condition. The kalam cosmological argument—perhaps the most discussed philosophical argument for God’s existence in recent decades—maintains that whatever begins to exist must have a cause. And since the universe began to exist, there must be a transcendent cause of its beginning, a conclusion which is confirmatory of theism. So this medieval argument for the finitude of the past has received fresh wind in its sails from recent scientific discoveries. This collection reviews and assesses the merits of the latest scientific evidences for the universe’s beginning. It ends with the kalam argument’s conclusion that the universe has a cause—a personal cause with properties of theological significance.

Kant`s Concept of Cosmological Freedom in Historical and Systematic Perspective ISBN: 9004383778 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004383777 Издательство: Brill Цена: 215170.00 T Наличие на складе: Поставка под заказ. Описание: Freedom is one of the main issues of modern philosophy and Kant’s philosophy of freedom a major source for comprehending it. Whereas in contemporary debates Kant’s concept of practical freedom is addressed frequently, the cosmological foundation of it is much less discussed and even mostly taken for granted. In Metaphysics of Freedom?, by contrast, Kant’s concept of cosmological freedom is scrutinized both in a historical and a systematic perspective. As a result, a deeper and broader understanding of Kant’s conception of freedom, its presuppositions, and problems emerges.
Did the universe begin to exist? If so, did it have a cause? Or could it have come into existence uncaused, from nothing? These questions are taken up by the medieval-though recently-revived-kalam cosmological argument, which has arguably been the most discussed philosophical argument for God's existence in recent decades. The kalam's line of reasoning maintains that the series of past events cannot be infinite but rather is finite. Since the universe could not have come into being uncaused, there must be a transcendent cause of the universe's beginning, a conclusion supportive of theism.
This anthology on the philosophical arguments for the finitude of the past asks: Is an infinite series of past events metaphysically possible? Should actual infinites be restricted to theoretical mathematics, or can an actual infinite exist in the concrete world? These essays by kalam proponents and detractors engage in lively debate about the nature of infinity and its conundrums; about frequently-used kalam argument paradoxes of Tristram Shandy, the Grim Reaper, and Hilbert's Hotel; and about the infinity of the future.
The ancient kalam cosmological argument maintains that the series of past events is finite and that therefore the universe began to exist. Two recent scientific discoveries have yielded plausible prima facie physical evidence for the beginning of the universe. The expansion of the universe points to its beginning-to a Big Bang-as one retraces the universe's expansion in time. And the second law of thermodynamics, which implies that the universe's energy is progressively degrading, suggests that the universe began with an initial low entropy condition.
The kalam cosmological argument-perhaps the most discussed philosophical argument for God's existence in recent decades-maintains that whatever begins to exist must have a cause.

Описание: The fundamentals found in this book rigorously describe the emergence of space through the mechanisms of unique association that were first extracted from and proven through combinatoric studies in two-dimensions. As methodological applied, these structural principles topologically correlate to the physical precursors of complex association that must ontologically underpin the observations and interpretations of quantum field theory and relativity at the very foundations of theoretical physics.Within the absolute associative rigors of this context, the physical operations of both space and time are emergent properties within the phasic evolution which naturally leads to four dimensions of space and the persistent currents of operational time. Within the self-generated symmetries of this holistic context, the self-referential consequence of interactive closure genetically determines and universally maintains dimensional density. Then with the detailed offsets exemplified by symmetry breaking, it simultaneously determines the proportional distribution and topological mechanics of nuclear emplacements. Overall, the inclusive reach of these precursive events inherently result in dimensional inflation and the observable products of 'Big Bang' nucleosynthesis.As a direct consequence, the well-defined limits to dimensional inflation, as lawful processes of conservation, which are functionally set by the topological definitions of unique association, fully explain and detail the basic mechanics of structural distribution. Being based upon a holistic assessment for all differential information, this originating distribution incidentally includes precise predictions for the percentages for both light and dark contributions of matter and energy as byproducts of processes that must maintain singularity (unity). These same processes also explain the observed differences between matter and antimatter within this interactive collective of polarized field distributions.These combinatorial and topological principles demonstrate that the observable universe exists and persists as a self-generating ensemble of dynamic ratios. Theoretically, this simply means that the physicality of the universe must remain lawfully deterministic even though the hectic complexity of composited outcomes ultimately expresses the potential energy of stochastic distributions-such as interactively manifested in thermodynamic processes. However, the key deterministic features of combinatorics and the topological conditions for expansion and contraction are dictated by the scalar limits of 'unique association' and structurally imposed by the absolute density of dimensional closure. Consequently, the emergent properties given by those scalar limits as pure ratios allow methodological measurements to directly predict and calculate the values conceptually related to anomalous magnetic dipole moment, Newton's constant for gravity, Plank's constant, formulations for the mass of the neutron, proton, electron, neutrino, the exact formulation for the limit on the speed of light, and the effective value for elementary charge. These findings immediately demonstrate that the fine-structure constant must be a derivative related to the byproducts of precursive causal processes. Philosophically, this mathematically proves that this physical level of conjunctive reality remains quantitatively and qualitatively deterministic as a direct consequence of dimensional inflation and closure.
