A compact yet comprehensive account concerned with how key aspects of stellar structure, evolution and nucleosynthesis can be understood in terms of basic physics. Begins with the most elementary factors and progresses to more advanced physical…
This is a modern treatment of the physics of the stars. The book starts with a chapter on stellar fundamentals, and then the story of the lives and deaths of the stars begins. The authors take us on a journey from the sun, a comparatively young star,…
This textbook gives a clear account of the manner in which knowledge in many branches of physics, such as gravitation, thermodynamics, atomic physics, and nuclear physics, can be combined to gain an understanding of the structure and evolution of…
