商品描述

This textbook introduces the reader to the basic concepts and equations that describe stellar structure. Various approximation techniques are used to solve equations, and an intuitive rather than rigorous approach is employed to interpret the properties of the stars. The book provides step-by-step instructions, helpful exercises and relevant historical lessons to familiarize students with key concepts and mathematical theories.

Based upon a series of one-semester (12 weeks) elective undergraduate courses offered at the University of Regina, this book is intended for students who are interested in seeing how basic calculus and introductory physics can be applied to the understanding of the stars from their formation to their death. The text provides an intermediate stepping stone between lower-level undergraduate classes and more specialized postgraduate texts on the subject of stellar structure.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本教科書向讀者介紹描述恆星結構的基本概念和方程式。使用各種近似技術來解決方程式,並採用直觀而非嚴謹的方法來解釋恆星的特性。書中提供逐步指導、有用的練習和相關的歷史課程,以幫助學生熟悉關鍵概念和數學理論。

本書基於在雷吉納大學提供的一系列為期一學期(12週)的選修本科課程,旨在讓對恆星從形成到死亡的基本微積分和入門物理應用感興趣的學生學習。該文本提供了一個中級的橋樑,連接較低級別的本科課程和更專業的研究生文本,專注於恆星結構的主題。
