Introduction to Advanced Astrophysics [E-Book] / by V. Kourganoff.
The purpose of this textbook is to provide a basic knowledge of the main parts of modern astrophysics for all those starting their studies in this field at the undergraduate level. The reader is supposed to have only a high school training in physics and mathematics. In many respects this Introducti...
