Description:
|
The introduction of nuclear physics into astronomy and the use of new spectrographic and photoelectric techniques have caused profound changes in theoretical and observational research on the stellar interior. Written in 1957 by the Eugene Higgins Professor of Astronomy at Princeton University, this important study is a summary of stellar evolution theory and offers full descriptions of the methods employed and results obtained in the significant new investigations in this field.
This thorough, clearly-written work is a major contribution to our understanding of the structure and evolution of the stars. A basic text for all students directly concerned with the theory of the stellar interior, Professor Schwarzchild's study is also valuable for observational astronomers, applied mathematicians, and stellar physicists.
