Theoretical Astrophysics: Volume 1, Astrophysical Processes (Theoretical Astrophysics (Paperback)) 1st Edition by T. Padmanabhan (PDF)

Description

Graduate students and researchers in astrophysics and cosmology need a solid understanding of a wide range of physical processes. This clear and authoritative book has been designed to help them to develop the necessary toolkit of theory. The book is modular in design, allowing the reader to pick and choose a selection of chapters, if necessary. It can be used alone, or in conjunction with the accompanying two volumes (covering stars and stellar systems, and galaxies and cosmology, respectively). After reviewing the basics of dynamics, electromagnetic theory, and statistical physics, the book carefully develops a solid understanding of radiative processes, spectra, fluid mechanics, plasma physics and MHD, dynamics of gravitating systems, general relativity, nuclear physics, and other key concepts. Throughout, the reader’s understanding is developed and tested with problems and helpful hints. This welcome volume provides graduate students with an indispensable introduction to and reference on all the physical processes they will need to successfully tackle research in astrophysics and cosmology.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐Book arrived on time and in good condition as expected, the book itself is definitely an investment of time but is worth it. The first chapter considers the relevant energy scales in the field of astrophysics before beginning the main development of the text. The astrophysical arguments are somewhat difficult to fully grasp but is less demanding in a pure mathematical sense. One of the best features of the text is the exercises which are included in the main body of the text emphasizing the concept under consideration. While this is a preference of mine, I believe it to be more effective than collecting the exercises at the end of the section or chapter.

⭐The “Theoretical Astrophysics” volume 1, by Padmanahaban, is a very comprehensive book of general physics. The volume one, cover most aspects of general physics that are trated very clear. I would like to suggest this tale at both undergraduate and PhD students in astrophysics.

⭐天体物理学を志す人にとっては必携の一冊．大学教養レベルの物理知識を持っていればそれだけで十分読みこなすことができます．必要な内容が章ごとにまとまっており，研究のさまざまな場面で，必要に応じて参照することができるのも，この本の大きな特徴です．
