The Physics of Interstellar Dust (Series in Astronomy and Astrophysics)All of the material is presented clearly and concisely.
- Tom Hartquist in A&G
It is by far the most comprehensive, detailed, and in depth work ever published on this subject. The book derives all of the relevant physics for interstellar dust from first principles. It includes all of the necessary physics of dust grains,... | | Dictionary of Geophysics, Astrophysics, and Astronomy (Comprehensive Dictionary of Physics)-CHOICE Magazine, January 2002

Theoretical Astrophysics: An Introduction
Beginning from first principles and adopting a modular structure, this book develops the fundamental physical methods needed to describe and understand a wide range of seemingly very diverse astrophysical phenomena and processes. For example, the discussion of radiation processes including their spectra is based on Larmor's equation and... | | Sunspots and Starspots (Cambridge Astrophysics)Written from both an observational and historical perspective, this book is the first to provide a comprehensive combined account of sunspots and starspots. It begins with a substantial historical introduction, then explores the intricate structure of a sunspot's magnetic field and the prevalence of polar spots on stars. Additional topics covered... | | Fundamentals of Galaxy Dynamics, Formation and Evolution
Galaxies, along with their underlying dark matter halos, constitute the building blocks of the universe. Of all the fundamental forces, gravity is the dominant one that drives the evolution of structures from small density seeds to the galaxies we see today. The interactions among myriads of stars, or dark matter particles, in a ... |
