Stellar Physics is a unique work among the growing literature on star formation and evolution. Not only does the author, a leading expert in the field, provide a very thorough description of the current knowledge about stellar physics, but he also deals with equal care about the many open problems in this field of research. A bibliography with well over 650 entries will make this book an unparalleled source of references. Fundamental Concepts and Stellar Equilibrium is the first of two volumes, and each part can be read as an independent work. The second volume treats Stellar Evolution and St

This book presents an up-to-date collection of reviews and contributed articles in the field of ultraviolet astronomy. Its content has been mainly motivated by the recent access to the rest frame UV light of distant red galaxies, gained through large optical facilities. This driveway has derived in a renewed interest on the stars that presumably dominate or have important effects on the integrated UV properties of evolved systems of the nearby and faraway Universe. The topics included in this volume extend from the fresh spectroscopic analyses of high redshift early-type galaxies observed with

This is the first of six volumes collecting significant papers of the distinguished astrophysicist and Nobel laureate S. Chandrasekhar. His work is notable for its breadth as well as for its brilliance; his practice has been to change his focus from time to time to pursue new areas of research. The result has been a prolific career full of discoveries and insights, some of which are only now being fully appreciated. Chandrasekhar has selected papers that trace the development of his ideas and that present aspects of his work not fully covered in the books he has periodically published to summa

Addressing the subject of stellar evolution from its basic theoretical aspect to current research, this book gives particular emphasis to the special challenges that confront the astrophysicist, namely the passive rather than active observation of astronomical objects and events. In addition to basic evolutionary concepts, Harpez introduces astrophysical phenomenon like the "cool" red giant, the intense white dwarf and the explosive supernova to show what can be learned from their unusual properties.
