13 Preface In the recent decades the theory and observations of disk systems became one of the fast progressing branches of astrophysics. This was stimulated by expansion of astronomical facilities including space-born and ground based instruments, data storage with growing resolution, the development of theoretical treatment of the processes involved and their modeling with the use of powerful computers. Among these processes, of particular interest and importance is the study of disks structure, their dynamics and evolution resulting in different configurations, including self-organization, which are basically relevant to the general problems of non-linear dynamic systems. Discussion of this topic was the main focus of the Colloquium Progress in the Study of Astrophysical Disks: Collective and Stochastic Phenomena and Computational Tools that was held from September 9 to 11, 2003 in Volgograd, south-east of European Russia. This book is the Proceedings of a conference attended by the leading scientists in the field from around the world, as well as by young scholars, mostly from the Volgograd State University which hosted the event. Altogether, 28 papers were presented, 22 oral ones and 6 posters, followed by valuable discussions. The book emphasises models of the disk galaxies, the nature of galactic vortices, dynamics of accretion disks with density waves, chaotic and ordered structures including turbulence in the accretion disks, numerical modelling of galactic and accretion disks, and the results of their observation. The contents of the book are a good summary of collective and stochastic processes in the astrophysical disks, their structure and evolution, and in-depth study of different approaches to their modelling with the use of modern computational tools. The main topics include: development of the orbital theory leading to a separation of ordered and chaotic regions in the galactic disks; revealing of a spiral-vortex structure (which is a density wave) by numerical simulation of the dynamics of an accretion disk in close binary stars supported by observations; development of a phenomenological model of non-equilibrium turbulence in the compressible fluid with the account of collective non-linear processes; advancement in accretion disk theory with the involvement of turbulent viscosity and in the numerical simulation of structure and dynamics of
14 xvi Preface a gaseous disk in a spiral galaxy, as well as in the study of mass distribution of luminous matter in disk galaxies involving spiral patterns/perturbations and of the internal structure of the thin accretion disk around a black hole. Specially addressed are spiral-vortex structure in galactic and accretion disks, stochastic and ordered structures in the developed turbulence, sources of turbulence in the accretion disks, numerical modelling of Be envelopes in binaries, gaseous disks in spiral galaxies with shock waves formation. Also, such exciting results as the first experimental detection of an overreflection instability impact on the rotating shallow water found independently in 1957 for the simplest case of the plane geometry in the pioneer theoretical works of Miles and Ribner, are thoroughly described and discussed in the book. The authors adeptly brought together collective and stochastic phenomena in the modern field of astrophysical disks, their formation, structure, and evolution involving relevant methodology, the results of observation and modelling, thereby advancing the study in this important branch of astrophysics. This is a book that belongs in all science libraries. It is intended for professional researchers in the field and graduate students and may be also useful for undergraduates who are going to specialize in astrophysics. The Editors greatly appreciate the support given by the Volgograd State University in holding this international Colloquium and would like to thank all authors who submitted the refined versions of their papers, the reviewers who generously responded and greatly contributed to the quality of the Proceedings, and Springer-Kluwer Publishers who offered to put out this book.
