Includes bibliographical references and index.
Nuclear Physics of Stars; Contents; Preface; 1 Aspects of Nuclear Physics and Astrophysics; 2 Nuclear Reactions; 3 Thermonuclear Reactions; 4 Nuclear Physics Experiments; 5 Nuclear Burning Stages and Processes; Appendix; Color Plates; References; Index.
Thermonuclear reactions in stars is a major topic in the field of nuclear astrophysics, and deals with the topics of how precisely stars generate their energy through nuclear reactions, and how these nuclear reactions create the elements the stars, planets and-ultimately-we humans consist of. The present book treats these topics in detail. It also presents the nuclear reaction and structure theory, thermonuclear reaction rate formalism and stellar nucleosynthesis. The topics are discussed in a coherent way, enabling the reader to grasp their interconnections intuitively. The book serves both a.
