Looking for that /sci/ required reading picture.

There was an interesting looking book on Mars in it.

Also first person to say whom the picture is of gets a nobel prize.

>> No.3760386

Fine, fine an Abel Prize.

>> No.3760406

Oh come on, what do you want a Wolf Prize?

Karl Schwarzschild. Do I get money with that prize?

No, I apoligise I've actually been being fraudulent, I have absolutely no power to grant you any official awards at all.
>>3760412

Excrement occurs.

Now has anyone got that picture, I'm not here for your pleasant company that is for sure

No one got it. Damn it /sci/ be useful

The lift force generated by a wing is not fundementally anything to do with it's shape.

Who are you and what are you doing in my thread?

>> No.3760559

I was reading Cosmology (4th Edition) by Michael Rowan-Robinson before trying to get this damn picture. Thanks for ruining an innocent persons education /sci/

>> No.3760601

It's alright so far. Hoping it gets better further on, I'm only on page 15.

>> No.3760634

Hey Synchotron radiation. Very tinny word synchotron.

>> No.3760647

Inverse Compton radiation. Compton is quite woody really.

>> No.3760645

>>3760467

If I recall correctly, it was Colonel Coffee Mug who initially posted it.
I believe he's usually on here later.

>> No.3760669

>>3760645
Okay. I'll just keep bumping.

Bremsstrahlung radiation. Good name, almost up there with Schwarzchild

>> No.3760697

Well that was quite a dull first chapter, mostly just a recap of radiation and how we observe them. I can't be bothered doing any of these practise questions, the maths was simple.

>> No.3760712

Oh an interesting thing I forgot to mention, the interstellar medium means the galaxy is opaque to some very low energy and high energy photons. Obvious really but never thought about it

>> No.3760731

Hey a Hertzsprung-Russel diagram! I haven't seen one of these in a couple years.

>> No.3760755

The Helium Flash doesn't occur when you think it does. Unless you know about it, then it does. I didn't

I've now been posting for more than an hour. Do you bastards have no pity.

"The halo phase" I'm pretty sure I went through that one. If I was a star it would explain an awful lot of things about my life.

>>3760782
Nope, thanks for trying though. And I'm saving this anyway as I haven't seen quite a few on that list.

>> No.3760839

>>3760793
No again. Another good list though. Bill Bryson's Short History of Nearly Everything is what inspired little 10 year old me to become a scientist.

Also I own a copy of the World Without Us. It's okay

>> No.3760889

I've stopped reading now. I'm searching my university's library through the internet. How advanced it that!

>> No.3760936

I have reserved a copy of Incoming:or why we should stop worrying and learn to love the meteorite. Seems like it might be interesting.

That one is more sci-fi related, this one is more science-oriented.

>>3760793

Thank you so much. I only had v1 of that one, I didn't know an updated one existed.

I'm going to update it now and add those books from the other list.

Also, I'll put Engines of Creation in the fiction section, AND NONE OF YOU CAN STOP ME!
