Shapes Of Galaxies And Their Dark Halos, The - Proceedings Of The Yale Cosmology Workshop

About this book

This book constitutes the proceedings of a very topical workshop aimed at understanding the shapes of the baryonic and dark matter components of galaxies. Several groups presented their recent results from observations and numerical N-body simulations.
