Fundamentals of Galaxy Dynamics, Formation and Evolution

By: Ignacio Ferreras

Galaxies, along with their underlying dark matter halos, constitute the building blocks of structure in the Universe. Of all fundamental forces, gravity is the dominant one that drives the evolution of structures from small density seeds at early times to the galaxies we see today. The interactions among myriads of stars, or dark matter particles, in a gravitating structure produce a system with fascinating connotations to thermodynamics, with some analogies and some fundamental differences. Ignacio Ferreras presents a concise introduction to extragalactic astrophysics, with emphasis on stellar dynamics, and the growth of density fluctuations in an expanding Universe. Additional chapters are devoted to smaller systems (stellar clusters) and larger ones (galaxy clusters). Fundamentals of Galaxy Dynamics, Formation and Evolution is written for advanced undergraduates and beginning postgraduate students, providing a useful tool to get up to speed in a starting research career. Some of the derivations for the most important results are presented in detail to enable students appreciate the beauty of maths as a tool to understand the workings of galaxies. Each chapter includes a set of problems to help the student advance with the material.

The Chosen Species

The Long March of Human Evolution

By: Juan Luis Arsuaga,Ignacio Martínez

Is modern man the logical conclusion of a long evolutionary journey? Or are humans merely an evolutionary accident? The Chosen Species answers these and many other questions about our origins. Authors Juan Luis Arsuaga and Ignacio Martínez are world-renowned paleoanthropologists and co-directors of the excavations at Atapuerca---a World Heritage Site and Europe’s oldest known burial site---where their team discovered a new human species, homo antecessor. Their work has changed the way we see human evolution. Here, the authors draw on their rich experience to provide a fascinating account of our origins. They reconstruct the sequence of events, give an account of how, when, and why man evolved, and draw conclusions based on verifiable facts and well-founded argument. The Chosen Species combines scientific rigor with a spellbinding style that will grip readers as they follow the tale to its end.

11TH GERMN BIENNIAL NMR MEETING 2022

By: Juana María Pérez Galera,Ignacio Fernández de las Nieves,María José Iglesias Valdés Solís,Cristina Ruiz Martínez,Fernando López Ortiz

La bienal de resonancia magnética nuclear (RMN) es un congreso consolidado dentro del grupo especializado de RMN español (GERMN) desde su primera edición celebrada en Calella en 2002, hasta esta última celebrada en Almería en 2022. Este congreso es de hecho la principal actividad de difusión y promoción de la investigación realizada en España que utiliza la RMN como plataforma espectroscópica esencial para alcanzar sus objetivos. La bienal de este año ha tenido entre uno de sus objetivos el promover el establecimiento de colaboraciones y redes entre grupos de RMN españoles e internacionales, centrándose en los principales avances y desarrollos recientes sobre biomacromoléculas, estado sólido, metabolómica, moléculas pequeñas y aspectos metodológicos de la RMN. El libro de resúmenes que aquí se promociona contiene un programa constituido por los resúmenes de un total de 13 conferencias plenarias, 12 comunicaciones orales, 14 presentaciones flash y 19 comunicaciones en modalidad póster, adaptados todos ellos a los muchos y amplios intereses de la comunidad de RMN. Como característica distintiva, el programa también incluye un taller concebido para convertirse en una plataforma de intercambio de información y experiencias entre los servicios de RMN. Desde la edición de este libro de resúmenes agradecemos a todos los asistentes de esta onceava edición de la bienal de RMN, así como a las personas y organizaciones tanto públicas como privadas que nos han asistido y que han hecho posible este congreso.
