Multimessenger astronomy[electronic resource] /by John Etienne Beckman. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2021. - xxiv, 390 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - Astronomers' universe,1614-659X. - Astronomers' universe..

Foreword by Rainer Weiss (Nobel Laureate) -- Preface -- Introduction -- Optical Astronomy -- Radio Astronomy -- Infrared Astronomy -- Ultraviolet Astronomy -- X-ray Astronomy -- Gamma-ray Astronomy -- Neutrino Astronomy -- Gravitational Wave Astronomy -- Cosmic Ray Astronomy -- Cosmology and Particle Physics: Interaction of the Largest and Smallest Scales in the Universe -- Hands-on astronomy: meteorites and cosmochemistry -- Comparing Messages -- Indexes.

Written by a professional astronomer who has worked on a wide spectrum of topics throughout his career, this book gives a popular science level description of what has become known as multimessenger astronomy. It links the new with the traditional, showing how astronomy has advanced at increasing pace in the modern era. In the second decade of the twenty-first century astronomy has seen the beginnings of a revolution. After centuries when all our information about the Universe has come via electromagnetic waves, now several entirely new ways of exploring it have emerged. The most spectacular has been the detection of gravitational waves in 2016, but astronomy also uses neutrinos and cosmic ray particles to probe processes in the centres of stars and galaxies. The book is strongly oriented towards measurement and technique. Widely illustrated with colourful pictures of instruments their creators and astronomical objects it will also be backed with descriptions of the underlying theories and concepts, linking predictions, observations and experiments. The thread is largely historical, although obviously it cannot be encyclopaedic. Its point of departure is the beginning of the twentieth century and it aims at being as complete as possible for the date of completion at the end of 2020. The book addresses a wide public whose interest in science is served by magazines like Scientific American: lively, intelligent readers but without university studies in physics.
