Radiative Processes in Astrophysics
Radiative Processes in Astrophysics: 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. Discussion begins with first principles, physically motivating and deriving all results rather than merely presenting finished formulae. 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.
Much of this prerequisite material is provided by brief reviews, making the book a self-contained reference for workers in However, a reasonably good physics background (introductory quantum mechanics, intermediate electromagnetic theory, special relativity, and some statistical mechanics) is required.
