Abstract

Raymond Arthur Lyttleton (1911-95) was a British astronomer who won the Royal Society Royal Medal in 1965 for significant contributions to his field. In this book, which was first published in 1953, Lyttleton presents an account of advances in relation to a classical problem of mathematical astronomy. The text is mainly concerned with those parts of the theory most directly involved in determining the evolution of gravitating liquid masses. The important conclusion is reached that the dynamical evidence is against the so-called 'fission process' of binary system formation. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in astronomy and the history of science.

Abstract

A systematic account of the theory and modelling of rotating fluids that highlights the remarkable advances in the area and brings researchers and postgraduate students in atmospheres, oceanography, geophysics, astrophysics and engineering to the frontiers of research. Sufficient mathematical and numerical detail is provided in a variety of geometries such that the analysis and results can be readily reproduced, and many numerical tables are included to enable readers to compare or benchmark their own calculations. Traditionally, there are two disjointed topics in rotating fluids: convective fluid motion driven by buoyancy, discussed by Chandrasekhar (1961), and inertial waves and precession-driven flow, described by Greenspan (1968). Now, for the first time in book form, a unified theory is presented for three topics - thermal convection, inertial waves and precession-driven flow - to demonstrate that these seemingly complicated, and previously disconnected, problems become mathematically simple in the framework of an asymptotic approach that incorporates the essential characteristics of rotating fluids.
