Writers
of science fiction have an interest in astronomy that is different from that of
just about everyone else on Earth. We don’t care where the stars appear in the
night sky of Earth. We want to know where they are with respect to one another.
Our motto is: “Forget the pretty lights in the sky! Tell me how to get from
Procyon to Aldebaran by the shortest possible route!”
The Sci Fi - Arizona Astrogator’s Handbook, Expanded
Edition does just that. We show you local space as viewed from the vicinity of
Polaris, the North Star, using a 3-D layered mapping system that makes it easy
to visualize the positions of the stars in the sky and their relationships to
one another. Included in the handbook are:
 |
60 pages of instructions and information concerning astronomy.
|
 |
7 overview star maps showing
the 3500 stars in a 150 light-year cube centered on Sol.
|
 |
63 quadrant star maps showing
the same stars with detailed information such as name, position, and
spectral type.
|
 |
120 pages of tables of supporting
data giving additional information on each star. |

George Phillies' *Phenomenology of Polymer Solution
Dynamics* (Cambridge University Press, 2011) gave a radical reinterpretation
of experiment.
From centrifugation and electrophoresis, through solvent
and monomer dynamics, dielectric relaxation, neutron scattering, self- and
tracer diffusion, probe diffusion, dynamic light scattering, and viscosity,
and finally to linear and non-linear viscoelasticity, *Phenomenology of
Polymer Solution Dynamics* systematically reconstructed our understanding of
polymer motion in non-dilute solution.
Central to the analysis in the Phenomenology were the fits
of literature measurements to a consistent set of fitting functions. Figures
show the curves generated by the fits, but… until now the fitting parameters
themselves were not generally available.
Here, for the first time, Complete Tables to Phillies'
Phenomenology of Polymer Solution Dynamics presents those numerical
parameters.
