Hamiltonian Systems And Celestial Mechanics
Author: Ernesto A Lacomba
language: en
Publisher: World Scientific
Release Date: 1993-04-30
This book deals with the fundamentals of wave optics, polarization, interference, diffraction, imaging, and the origin, properties, and optical effects of turbulence in the Earth's atmosphere. Techniques developed during the last few decades to overcome atmospheric image degradation (including passive methods, speckle interferometry in particular, and active methods such as adaptive optics), are highlighted. Also discussed are high resolution sensors, image processing, and the astronomical results obtained with these techniques.
Introduction to Hamiltonian Dynamical Systems and the N-Body Problem

The theory of Hamiltonian systems is a vast subject which can be studied from many different viewpoints. This book develops the basic theory of Hamiltonian differential equations from a dynamical systems point of view. That is, the solutions of the differential equations are thought of as curves in a phase space and it is the geometry of these curves that is the important object of study. The analytic underpinnings of the subject are developed in detail. The last chapter on twist maps has a more geometric flavor. It was written by Glen R. Hall. The main example developed in the text is the classical N-body problem, i.e., the Hamiltonian system of differential equations which describe the motion of N point masses moving under the influence of their mutual gravitational attraction. Many of the general concepts are applied to this example. But this is not a book about the N-body problem for its own sake. The N-body problem is a subject in its own right which would require a sizable volume of its own. Very few of the special results which only apply to the N-body problem are given.
Hamiltonian Systems And Celestial Mechanics (Hamsys-98) - Proceedings Of The Iii International Symposium
This volume is an outgrowth of the Third International Symposium on Hamiltonian Systems and Celestial Mechanics. The main topics are Arnold diffusion, central configurations, singularities in few-body problems, billiards, area-preserving maps, and geometrical mechanics. All papers in the volume went through the refereeing process typical of a mathematical research journal.
