Astrophysics of Black Holes : From Fundamental Aspects to Latest Developments
Berlin, Heidelberg : Springer Berlin Heidelberg : Imprint: Springer, 2016
Abstract/Sommario:
This book discusses the state of the art of the basic theoretical and observational topics related to black hole astrophysics. It covers all the main topics in this wide field, from the theory of accretion disks and formation mechanisms of jet and outflows, to their observed electromagnetic spectrum, and attempts to measure the spin of these objects. Black holes are one of the most fascinating predictions of general relativity and are currently a very hot topic in both physics and astr ...; [leggi tutto]
