Open Issues In Core Collapse Supernova Theory
World Scientific Publishing Company 2005; US$ 186.00Efforts to uncover the explosion mechanism of core collapse supernovae and to understand all of their associated phenomena have been ongoing for nearly four decades. Despite this, our theoretical understanding of these cosmic events remains limited; two- and three-dimensional modeling of these events is in its infancy. Most of the modeling efforts... more...

Superstelle in esplosione
Springer 2010; US$ 23.99Le supernovae e i gamma-ray burst, gli eventi più catastrofici che si verificano nell?Universo, sono oggetto di studio nei campi più dinamici della moderna ricerca astronomica. Dei secondi ancora non conosciamo con precisione i meccanismi che li innescano e tuttavia forti indizi suggeriscono che, come nelle supernovae, la causa scatenante sia il collasso... more...
Exploding Superstars
Springer 2009; US$ 23.99Shows how great stellar explosions have become extremely important to cosmologists trying to understand the evolution of our universe since the Big Bang and the scale of that universe. This book describes the very early universe, after the Big Bang, and then how 'the lights came on all over the universe as the very first stars began to shine.' more...
