The Constants of Nature (2008)

Just Six Numbers, Reviewed Brian, E. Blank, John D. Barrow, Just Six Numbers, Martin Rees

Consider the two constants G and G. The first G arises frequently when we manipulate special functions. We represent this G by dozens of series and integrals, we study its continued fraction...

Interview of Martin Rees (2007)

Rees, Martin

Interviewed by Alan Macfarlane on 22nd August (part 1) and September 3rd 2007. Lasts about just under two hours. Summary by Sarah Harrison

Il secolo finale (2005)

Rees, Martin

Il secolo finale, perché l'umanità rischia di autodistruggersi nei prossimi cento anni, Martin Rees, traduzione di Valentina Pecchiar. . - Milano, Mondadori, 2005.

The distribution and cosmic evolution of massive black hole spins (2004)

Volonteri, Marta, Madau, Piero, Quataert, Eliot, Rees, Martin

We study the expected distribution of massive black hole (MBH) spins and its evolution with cosmic time in the context of hierarchical galaxy formation theories. Our model uses Monte Carlo...

Why is the CMB fluctuation level 10^{-5}? (1997)

Tegmark, Max, Rees, Martin

We explore the qualitative changes that would occur if the amplitude Q ~ 10^{-5} of cosmological density fluctuations were different. If is less than about 10^{-6}, the cosmological objects that form...

Destruction of Molecular Hydrogen During Cosmological Reionization (1996)

Haiman, Zoltan, Rees, Martin, Loeb, Abraham

We investigate the ability of primordial gas clouds to retain molecular hydrogen (H_2) during the initial phase of the reionization epoch. We find that before the Stromgren spheres of the individual...

How small were the first cosmological objects? (1996)

Tegmark, Max, Silk, Joseph, Rees, Martin, Blanchard, Alain, Abel, Tom, Palla, Francesco

The minimum mass that a virialized gas cloud must have in order to be able to cool in a Hubble time is computed, using a detailed treatment of the chemistry of molecular hydrogen. With a simple model...

H_2 Cooling of Primordial Gas Triggered by UV Irradiation (1995)

Haiman, Zoltan, Rees, Martin, Loeb, Abraham

We investigate the formation of molecular hydrogen (H_2) in a primordial H+He gas cloud irradiated by a power-law UV flux. We find that at high densities (>1 cm^{-3}) and low temperatures (

Omega from Velocities in Voids (1993)

Dekel, Avishai, Rees, Martin

We propose a method for deriving a dynamical lower bound on $\Omega$ from diverging flows in low-density regions, based on the fact that large outflows are not expected in a low-$\Omega$ universe....

[Biblioteca Salvat de grandes temas] (1973)

Canal, Ramón, Rees, Martin, Salvat, Manuel (dir.), Marco, Joaquín (dir. Editorial)

Gracias a los desarrollos recientes de la física nuclear es posible hoy día tener un conocimiento muy sofisticado sobre la naturaleza física de las estrellas, tema del cual se ocupa la presente...
