Some cosmological proposals for “Christus in the Mandorla” (Christos Pantokrator) from advanced mathematics and plasma physics

the research topic was: find in as old as possible antiquity HINTS to become CORRELTATED to TODAY HYPERPHSICS - as in the sense of Joseph P. Farrell, to "tetrahedal physic" of Richard Hoagland and to "suqring the circle" as in Buike research. The SURPRISE was and is: THERE ARE THOSE hints, which however ned FIRST, to have KNOWLEDGE on the mentioned approaches, to make sense in a TODAY CONTEXT of developments. Today many scientists recognize plasma as the key element to understanding new observations in near-Earth, interplanetary, interstellar, and intergalactic space; in stars, galaxies, and clusters of galaxies, and throughout the observable universe. Physics of the Plasma Universe, 2nd Edition is an update of observations made across the entire cosmic electromagnetic spectrum over the two decades since the publication of the first edition. It addresses paradigm changing discoveries made by telescopes, planetary probes, satellites, and radio and space telescopes. The contents are the result of the author's 37 years research at Livermore and Los Alamos National Laboratories, and the U.S. Department of Energy. This book covers topics such as the large-scale structure and the filamentary universe; the formation of magnetic fields and galaxies, active galactic nuclei and quasars, the origin and abundance of light elements, star formation and the evolution of solar systems, and cosmic rays. Chapters 8 and 9 are based on the research of Professor Gerrit Verschuur, and reinvestigation of the manifestation of interstellar neutral hydrogen filaments from radio astronomical observations are given. Using data from the Green Bank 100-m telescope (GBT) of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO), detailed information is presented for a non-cosmological origin for the cosmic microwave background quadruple moment. This volume is aimed at graduate students and researchers active in the areas of cosmic plasmas and space science. The supercomputer and experimental work was carried out within university, National laboratory, Department of Energy, and supporting NASA facilities. Ptolemy's Geography is the only book on cartography to have survived from the classical period and one of the most influential scientific works of all time. Written in the second century AD, for more than fifteen centuries it was the most detailed topography of Europe and Asia available and the best reference on how to gather data and draw maps. Ptolemy championed the use of astronomical observation and applied mathematics in determining geographical locations. But more importantly, he introduced the practice of writing down coordinates of latitude and longitude for every feature drawn on a world map, so that someone else possessing only the text of the Geography could reproduce Ptolemy's map at any time, in whole or in part, at any scale. Here Berggren and Jones render an exemplary translation of the Geography and provide a thorough introduction, which treats the historical and technical background of Ptolemy's work, the contents of the Geography, and the later history of the work. "Ptolemy's Geography is the only book on cartography to have survived from the classical period and one of the most influential scientific works of all time.

"Historians of science, classicists, and anyone who enjoys beautiful maps or map making will find this work an indispensable addition to their library."--Jacket

the Translation Is Exemplary, Surely The Best In Any Language. It Supersedes All Previous Translations And Corrects All Editions. The Authors Have Done A Splendid Job In Every Way And Have Produced A Work That Will Be Useful For The Duration Of Our Lives And Probably Much Longer.--noel Swerdlow, University Of Chicago And Author Of the Babylonian Theory Of The Planets

berggren And Jones Have Made A Difficult, Detailed And Challenging Text Far More Accessible And Have Produced A Work That Will Be The Standard For Many Years To Come. They Have Done A Wonderful Service To The Study Of A Crucial Text By One Of The Most Important Figures In The History Of Science. A Pleasure To Read.--liba Taub, Cambridge University

a Superlative New Translation. . . . In Berggren And Jones [ptolemy] Has, At Long Last, Found His Ideal Exponents.

During the past decade our understanding of plasma physics has witnessed an explosive growth due to research in two areas: work directed toward controlled nuclear fusion and work in space physics. This book addresses the growing need to apply these complementary discoveries to astrophysics. Today plasma is recognized as the key element to understanding the generation of magnetic fields in planets, stars and galaxies, the accel- eration and transport of cosmic rays, and many other phenomena occurring in interstellar space, in radio galaxies, stellar atmospheres, quasars, and so forth. Addresses the growing need to apply the complementary discoveries arising from research in work directed towards controlled nuclear fusion and work in space physics, which revealed that plasma is the key element in understanding the generation of magnetic fields in planets, stars and galaxies. World cartography is an imitation through drawing of the entire known part of the world together with the things that are, broadly speaking, connected with it.
