Atoms, Stars, and Nebulae
In a nontechnical fashion, this book tells the story of how astronomy and physics work together to unravel many mysteries of stars and nebulae. Professor Aller's descriptions stress deeper understanding of these objects, not just a mere review of…
The Physics of Astrophysics Volume I: Radiation
Presented in two volumes, The Physics of Astrophysics is ideally suited for a year-long astrophysics course for university seniors and first-year graduate students. The first volume deals with the emission, absorption, and scattering of radiation by…
The Physics of Astrophysics Volume II: Gas Dynamics
Presented in two volumes, The Physics of Astrophysics is ideally suited for a year-long astrophysics course for university seniors and first-year graduate students. This second volume deals with the interactions of matter and radiation, and…
Astrophysical Techniques
Astrophysical Techniques provides a comprehensive and clearly understandable account of the instruments and techniques used in astronomy and astrophysics. Drawing together an ever-diverging array of observational techniques, using the common thread…
Optical Astronomical Spectroscopy
A concise introduction, Optical Astronomical Spectroscopy appeals to the newcomer of astronomical spectroscopy and assumes no previous specialist knowledge. Beginning from the physical background of spectroscopy with a clear explanation of energy…
The Fullness of Space
A brief glance at the night sky reveals a remarkable fact about the Universe: it is extremely patchy. The light we see on a moonless night comes from bright specks we call planets and stars. Between the stars we see blackness. Most of astronomy, not…
The Dusty Universe (Prentice-Hall International Series in Industrial and Systems)
Requiring no astronomical background, this excellent introductory examines the physics of dust particles in interstellar, circumstellar and extragalactic space. After presenting relevant astronomical concepts, the author discusses the physical…
Stars (A Scientific American Library Book)
In this fascinating Journey to the farther reaches of space, astronomer James Kaler explores the nature of stars, describing their origins, varieties, distributions, compositions, and distinctive histories. He demonstrates that stars are the key to…
Structure and Evolution of Single and Binary Stars (Astrophysics and Space Science Library (Paperback))
Classical stellar evolution theories have undergone some drastic changes in recent decades. New insights into the development of stellar interiors were obtained from studying stars in various stages of their lives, as well as with the help of fast…
