Baade-Wesselink analyses of this important Galactic classical Cepheid provide new values for the radius, luminosity, distance, and mass and show SU Cas likely to be pulsating in the first overtone. Application of a modified Baade-Wesselink technique

In this chapter we expand our view to include planetary systems beyond our own. We begin with the historical searches for planets around other stars to the present day, then survey the methods used to detect and study extra-solar planets (aka exoplan

We begin this chapter with a detailed review of the ionization and recombination processes in a planetary ionosphere, as exemplified by the ionosphere we know the most about, that of the Earth. We then extend the discussion to the ionospheres of Mars

In the previous chapter, we discussed sporadic meteors and meteor showers and indicated that some of the former and most of the latter likely originate from comets. Here we discuss the source of the other meteors, especially those that survive their

The giant planets contain the bulk of the angular momentum of the solar system and the dominant mass among the planets. The magnetosphere of the Jovian system dwarfs the Sun in size. Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune radiate considerably more energy than

The chapter outlines the changes in humanity’s perception of the solar system since the Palaeolithic, discusses the most recent theories of the origin of the solar system, and presents a slate of striking facts for which any successful theory about

Here we treat the bulk properties of the Earth-like planets, starting with their densities, gravity fields (and therefore shape) and seismometry, and what these tell us about the distribution of mass throughout their interiors. The Adams-Williamson e

We describe the development and results from the implementation of a new approach for teaching physics in the small group sections of a large introductory physics class. The labatorials emphasize conceptual understanding and problem solving skills ov

In this and the next chapter, we move away from the planets and look at the small bodies of the solar system. We begin with an indepth look at comets: their orbits and orbital families, the structure and composition of the nucleus (the solid object),

After having studied the Earth’s Moon in Chap. 8, we now look at the moons of the other planets of the solar system. A quick look at the two moons of Mars is followed by a detailed examination of the four Galilean satellites of Jupiter: Io, Europa,
