Galactic Dynamics and N-Body Simulations: Lectures Held at the Astrophysics School VI Organized by the European Astrophysics Doctoral Network (EADN) in Thessaloniki, Greece, 13-23 July 1993
This book provides an in-depth coverage of modern research on dynamical systems. The first part discusses stellar dynamics, integrable systems, the transition to chaos and instabilities in stellar dynamics as well as the dynamics of spiral galaxies. Models are given and compared with observations. The second part is devoted to the direct method of N-body simulations, to gas dynamics simulations and to galaxy formation.
