The Distribution and Motion of Interstellar Matter in Galaxies - Lodewijk Woltjer - Bog

""The Distribution and Motion of Interstellar Matter in Galaxies"" is a scientific book written by Lodewijk Woltjer, a Dutch astrophysicist. The book focuses on the study of interstellar matter, which is the matter that exists between stars in galaxies. It explores the distribution and movement of this matter within galaxies, and how it affects the evolution and structure of galaxies. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the properties of interstellar gas and dust, the dynamics of interstellar matter, and the formation of stars and planetary systems. It also discusses the role of interstellar matter in the evolution of galaxies, including the formation of spiral arms and the distribution of dark matter. ""The Distribution and Motion of Interstellar Matter in Galaxies"" is a comprehensive and detailed resource for astrophysicists, astronomers, and anyone interested in the study of galaxies and interstellar matter.Contributing Authors Include J.
