Classical approaches based on Boltzmann's kinetic equation, as well as on its moment-equation descendants the Euler and Navier-Stokes fluid equations, are inadequate for treating the maintenance and long-term evolution of systems containing self-organized structures such as galactic density-wave modes. A global and synthetic approach, incorporating correlated fluctuations of the constituent particles during a nonequilibrium phase transition, is adopted to supplement the continuum treatment. The cutting-edge research combining analytical, N-body simulational, and observational aspects, as well as the fundamental-physics connections it provides, make this work a valuable reference for researchers and graduate students in astronomy, astrophysics, cosmology, many-body physics, complexity theory, and other related fields.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eDynamical Drivers of Galaxy Evolution\u003cbr\u003eN-Body Simulations of Galaxy Evolution\u003cbr\u003eAstrophysical Implications of the Dynamical Theory\u003cbr\u003ePutting It All Together\u003cbr\u003eConcluding Remarks\u003cbr\u003eAppendix: Relation to Kinetics and Fluid Mechanics \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46489465782423,"sku":"9783110525199","price":17971.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783110525199.jpg?v=1766341897","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/dynamical-evolution-of-galaxies-9783110525199","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
