"Observational Evidence for Black Holes in the Universe" by Sandip K. Chakrabarti is a mathematics book and learning resource focused on Deep Sky & Solar System. Best for teachers, students, and readers looking for stronger mathematical understanding.

Astrophysicists and science fiction buffs alike wonder about the existence of black holes. Scientists also concern themselves with how to measure these enigmatic cosmic objects, as they cannot be directly observed. Compiled as the edited proceedings of the first- time conference on this topic (Calcutta--of quite different "black hole" fame, January 1998), 28 papers by 41 contributors (pictured) overview the state-of-the-art theoretical, numerical stimulation, and indirect space- and ground-based observational clues to finding the tell-tale signatures of these celestial Cheshire cats. Includes a brief radio astronomy history by Dr. M.K. Das Gupta, who provided the first circumstantial evidence for extra-galactic black holes in the 1950s. Author index only.
