• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

"Heng presents a large body of background knowledge, drawing from diverse fields, to give students the necessary foundation to understand current state-of-the-art research on exoplanetary atmospheres."--Mark Marley, NASA Ames Research Center "An excellent resource for newcomers to the field as well as experts with years of experience."--Jacob L. Bean, University of Chicago "Highly recommended. What makes this book stand out is that it is really geared to teaching students how to model atmospheres as a whole--not just one or two particular aspects, but the complete picture, which is a must for the future endeavor of understanding exoplanetary atmospheres."--Ignas Snellen, Leiden University "The scope of this book is ambitious. Heng covers a tremendous range of topics, which are needed to characterize a very complicated set of systems."--Jared Workman, Colorado Mesa University
