    Introduction to Close Binary Systems provides a comprehensive survey and guide to the fast-moving field of multiple, specifically binary, stars, with an up to date account of research around 'close', i.e. interacting pairs. Such interactions allow direct quantification of stellar properties, opening up factual insights into basic building blocks of the Universe. The book provides a much needed update for the seminal Close Binary Systems of Zdenek Kopal. Following a comparable plan, it presents relevant subject matter with an emphasis on building a framework of understanding to serve as a supporting resource for students and researchers. The text starts from a general historical background and progresses into the main theoretical ideas supporting our prima facie interpretation of observations. The central chapters explore further into these observational methods, arranged according to the classic subdivisions of astrometry, spectroscopy and photometry. Optimal inversion of observational data into model parametrization is a theme through these chapters. Significant here is the problem of how non-uniqueness in modelling affects interpretation. The underlying issues of stellar evolution bearing on observational evidence become paramount in the last four chapters. The book proceeds step-by-step from directly understandable examples of unevolved pairs to the challenging cases where stars are found in more and more extreme conditions, leading up to the mergers of massive black hole pairs seen in the new field of gravitational wave astronomy. This is a valuable reference for postgraduate and advanced undergraduate students working in mainstream areas of stellar astrophysics, with applications also to exoplanet research which shares some methodological features. Course designers for stellar astrophysics will find a useful selection of topics within this book. Key features: . Provides a well-explained and backgrounded, up-to-date account of close binary systems, in a fast-moving field of research that is growing in scientific importance . Surveys a wide range of case-studies within the context of binary and multiple star systems . Fills an acknowledged gap in current literature

    X-O-Planet haben einen Orbit bei Danse Macabre eingenommen um die schwarze Szene mit ihren elektronischen Dreamscapes zu beschallen.Inspiriert durch Science Fiction Literatur und Film aber auch aktuelle wissenschaftliche Entdeckungen und Theorien über das Universum, die Zeit, Materie und mögliches extraterrestrisches Leben, nimmt X-O-Planet seine Hörer auf dem Debut-Album Passengers mit auf eine Reise durch den unendlich weiten, dunklen Kosmos. Die Musik von X-O-Planet lässt sich im Bereich Dark Electro einordnen und setzt sich aus harten Bässen, sphärischen Synthies und Manjas glasklarer Stimme zusammen. Neben tanzbaren Songs wie dem Titelsong Passengers und Anyway reihen sich das hymnische Outer Space, das verträumte Exoplanet und sogar instrumentale Stücke wie etwa das Interlude passend in das Konzeptalbum des Mainzer Dark-Electro-Duos ein. Textlich werden verschiedenste Themen aus der Science Fiction, der Erforschung des Weltraums und zwischenmenschlichen Episoden behandelt. TRACKS: 1.Prelude 2.Can´t Sustain 3.Exoplanet 4.Seek And Hide 5.Passengers 6.Interlude 7.Remember 8.Anyway 9.Vice Versa 10.Outer Space 11.Postlude
