Abstract

Galileis denkende Hand stellt eine grundlegende Überarbeitung des im Jahr 2007 erschienenen Werkes Galilei, der Künstler dar. Bereinigt um eine fehlerhafte Zuschreibung, entfaltet es auf stark erweiterter Grundlage das künstlerische Element von Galileis Forscherleben. Nach einer Rekonstruktion von Galileis künstlerischer Ausbildung erschließt es mit seinem künstlerischen Freundeskreis auch seinen zeitkritischen Stilbegriff und seine Kunsttheorie. Die Untersuchung von Galileis Darstellungs- und Analysemittel bei der Erkundung des Mondes, der Sonne, der Jupitermonde und der Fixsterne führt zu zahlreichen neuen Ergebnissen; so erweisen sich die berühmtem Florentiner Mondzeichnungen nicht als Modelle, sondern als Korrekturen der Mondradierungen im Sternenboten von 1610. Schließlich revidiert das Buch die herkömmliche Deutung von Galileis Diktum, dass die Philosophie im geometrischen Buch der Natur ihr Ziel finde. Galilei zufolge besteht die Natur nicht nur aus geometrischer Präzision, sondern auch aus dem Überfluss des Wirren und Wuchernden. Da die Kunst beide Elemente im Blick hat, ist sie für Galilei das Modell aller Philosophie. Galileo’s Thinking Hand represents a fundamental revision of the earlier work Galileo, the Artist published in 2007. The sections incorrectly identifying a forgery as the work of Galileo have been corrected. The work sheds light on the artistic aspects of Galileo’s research life, drawing on a greatly expanded documentational basis. New insights reveal Galileo’s working methods as he explored the moon, sun, moons of Jupiter, and the fixed stars.

Abstract

Between 1608 and 1610 the canopy of the night sky was ripped open by an object created almost by accident: a cylinder with lenses at both ends. Galileo’s Telescope tells how this ingenious device evolved into a precision instrument that would transcend the limits of human vision and transform humanity’s view of its place in the cosmos.

Abstract

Ces trois philosophes menèrent d’audacieuses expériences de pensée reposant sur les mathématiques, ce qui leur permit de rêver un nouveau Monde, en renversant l’ancienne cosmologie géocentrique médiévale des Anciens au profit d’un nouvel héliocentrisme copernicien. Pour décrire la naissance de cette science nouvelle, l’auteur déroule la biographie des trois savants, aux vies aussi aventureuses que romanesques, en illustrant leurs doctrines et pensées au travers de nombreuses citations ; on découvre alors avec surprise qu’ils ont concilié une philosophie expérimentale et rationnelle avec une tradition magicohermétique, une démarche expérimentale avec une approche intuitive et mystique.

Abstract

This book covers multi-band Galileo receivers (especially E1-E5 bands of Galileo) and addresses all receiver building blocks, from the antenna and front end, through details of the baseband receiver processing blocks, up to the navigation processing, including the Galileo message structure and Position, Velocity, Time (PVT) computation. Moreover, hybridization solutions with communications systems for improved localization are discussed and an open-source GNSS receiver platform (available for download) developed at Tampere University of Technology (TUT) is addressed in detail. • Takes a holistic approach to GALILEO and related systems, such as EGNOS and hybrid solutions on mobile phones; • Provides an invaluable reference to Binary Offset Carrier modulations and related families, which are some of the trademarks of GALILEO; • Includes a detailed survey of GALILEO receiver research in Europe and existing software-defined radio (SDR) GALILEO receiver implementations; • Addresses the multiple challenges in acquisition and tracking of GALILEO signals, including multipaths, ambiguities, and low carrier-to-noise ratios; • Offers insight into the design of a Software Defined GALILEO receiver; • Enables readers to have a full image of the processing steps involved in a GALILEO receiver.

Abstract

Few legal events loom as large in early modern history as the trial of Galileo. Frequently cast as a heroic scientist martyred to religion or as a scapegoat of papal politics, Galileo undoubtedly stood at a watershed moment in the political maneuvering of a powerful church. But to fully understand how and why Galileo came to be condemned by the papal courts—and what role he played in his own downfall—it is necessary to examine the trial within the context of inquisitorial law.With this final installment in his magisterial trilogy on the seventeenth-century Roman Inquisition, Thomas F. Mayer has provided the first comprehensive study of the legal proceedings against Galileo. By the time of the trial, the Roman Inquisition had become an extensive corporatized body with direct authority over local courts and decades of documented jurisprudence. Drawing deeply from those legal archives as well as correspondence and other printed material, Mayer has traced the legal procedure from Galileo's first precept in 1616 to his formal trial in 1633. With an astonishing mastery of the legal underpinnings and bureaucratic workings of inquisitorial law, Mayer's work compares the course of legal events to other possible outcomes within due process, showing where the trial departed from standard procedure as well as what available recourse Galileo had to shift its direction.The Roman Inquisition: Trying Galileo presents a detailed and corrective reconstruction of the actions both in the courtroom and behind the scenes that led to one of history's most notorious verdicts.
