Therefore, this preparatory and introductory text serves as a gateway to a more detailed study of many of the most interesting and complex phenomena being investigated by contemporary astrophysics. Among others, these include: the evolution of stars, supernovae, neutron stars, black holes, solar neutrinos, and - importantly - the exciting new field of gravitational wave astronomy. The book is supplemented by a collection of problems with which students can test their understanding of the material presented.Undergraduate Lecture Notes in Physics,2192-4805AstrophysicsGravitationParticles (Nuclear physics)General relativity (Physics)AstrophysicsGravitational PhysicsParticle PhysicsGeneral RelativityAstrophysics.Gravitation.Particles (Nuclear physics)General relativity (Physics)Astrophysics.Gravitational Physics.Particle Physics.General Relativity.523.01523.01ASTR 899zT_PHYSHorvath Jorge Ernesto1082152MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9910522560903321High-Energy Astrophysics2597047UNINA
