Springer, 2010, 252 pages Astronomical jets are key astrophysical phenomena observed in gamma-ray bursts, active galactic nuclei or young stars. Research on them has largely occurred within the domains of astronomical observations, astrophysical modeling and numerical simulations, but the recent advent of high energy density facilities has added experimental control to jet studies. Front-line research on jet launching and collimation require...

Springer, 2009, 342 p. This monograph, consisting of 22 contributions, is organized in six parts dealing with astrophysical turbulence, dynamos, pulsar radiation mechanisms, quantum plasmas, accretion disks, and solar and space plasmas. It is well established and appreciated by now that more than 99% of the baryonic matter in the universe is in the plasma state. Most astrophysical systems could be approximated as conducting fluids in a gravitat...

Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, Wiley-VCH, Weinheim, 2004, 396 pp. - ISBN-13: 978-0-471-82759-7. This book grew out of a course of the same title which each of us taught for several years in the Harvard astronomy department. We felt a need for a book on the subject of radiative processes emphasizing the physics rather than simply giving a collection of formulas. Contents Chapter 1 - Fundamentals of radiative transfer. Chapter 2 - Bas...

World Scientific Publishing, 2011, 204 pages This new book is a thorough but short review of the history and present status of ideas in cosmology. It is aimed at a broad audience, but will contain a few equations where needed to make the argument exact. The coverage of cosmological ideas will focus mainly on the period from the early 1900s when Einstein formulated relativity and when his colleague Sir Arthur Eddington was creating relativistic...
