Astronomy and Astrophysics

Amos Harpaz • A K Peters/CRC Press eBooks (1993)

A star is by definition a celestial object, bound by self-gravity, in which thermal energy is produced from a nonthermal source (nuclear reactions) and is radiated outward from the object’s surface to its surroundings. We shall extend this ...
