Stars as Laboratories for Fundamental Physics the Astrophysics of Neutrinos, Axions, and Other Weakly Interacting Particles
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Univ of Chicago Pr
- Publish date: 01/01/1997
Description:
The first extended work of its kind, Stars as Laboratories for Fundamental Physics stands at the intersection of two burgeoning fields: astrophysics and particle physics. Georg Raffelt, one of the world's leading researchers in this area, describes what the study of stars reveals about fundamental particle interactions.
Expand description
Raffelt presents the many uses of stellar astrophysics for research in basic particle physics, focusing primarily on the properties and nongravitational interactions of elementary particles. Graphs and figures throughout the text model the explanations.
Much of this material has not been covered previously in the textbook literature on particle astrophysics, which examines mainly the early universe, neutrino physics, or cosmic rays. Stars as Laboratories for Fundamental Physics will interest particle physicists, astrophysicists, and cosmologists both as an introduction to stars as sources for weakly interacting particles and as a reference text.
