Radiative Processes in Astrophysics

Ebook (PDF Format)

This clear, straightforward, and fundamental introduction is designed to present -from a physicist's point of view - radiation processes and their applications to astrophysical phenomena and space science. It covers such topics as radiative transfer theory, relativistic covariance and kinematics, bremsstrahlung radiation, synchrotron radiation, Compton scattering, some plasma effects, and radiative transitions in atoms. Discussion begins with first principles, physically motivating and deriving all results rather than merely presenting finished formulae. However, a reasonably good physics background (introductory quantum mechanics, intermedi… Mehr
