Fundamentals of Galaxy Dynamics, Formation and Evolution Ferreras IgnacioPaperback
Galaxies, along with their underlying dark matter halos, constitute the building blocks of the universe. The interactions among myriads of stars, or dark matter particles, in a gravity-based structure produce a system with fascinating implications for thermodynamics, including both similarities and fundamental differences. Of all the fundamental forces, gravity is the dominant one that drives the evolution of structures from small density seeds to the galaxies we see today.
Additional chapters are devoted to smaller systems (stellar clusters) and larger ones (galaxy clusters). Ignacio Ferreras presents a concise introduction to extragalactic astrophysics, with an emphasis on stellar dynamics and the growth of density fluctuations in an expanding universe. Written for advanced undergraduates and beginning postgraduate students, Fundamentals of Galaxy Dynamics provides a useful tool to
