Stars, Nebulae and the Interstellar Medium: Observational Physics and Astrophysics complements the author's highly successful Astrophysical Techniques, Fourth Edition (2004). This book describes those characteristics of stars, groups of stars, and the material between the stars that can be directly observed or inferred from the study of electromagnetic emissions and, occasionally, high-energy particles. Providing a wealth of material of interest and use to a wide range of readers, the descriptive chapters are accessible to scientifically literate nonspecialists while the complete text is suitable for most advanced undergraduates in astrophysics.

24 cm, Softcover/Paperback, Condition: Gut. XIV, 359 S. : Ill., graph. Darst., mit s/w. Abbildungen und Illustrationen, Fotos, Zustand: Exemplar in gutem Zustand, Ränder und / oder Cover etwas berieben. Ausgabe 1987 , Text / Sprache: Englisch , This volume complements the author's highly successful Astrophysical Techniques (Adam Hilger, 1984). It describes those characteristics of stars and groups of stars, and of the material between the stars, which can be directly observed or inferred from the study of electromagnetic emissions or, occasionally, high-energy particles. Although there is a bias towards data which can be collected and interpreted by the methods of the earlier book, the theoretical treatment is sufficiently detailed to allow this work to stand on its own as a description of practically all phenomena of current interest to stellar and nebular astronomers. The result is a comprehensive survey of the structure, properties and evolution of stars and their interaction with the interstellar medium. Full weight is given to recent discoveries and theories, to give a picture based on the most up-to-date research. Special chapters summarise the physical and mathematical background needed for a deeper understanding of the more complex physical processes, . Bibliogr. S.
