Particle Physics and Astrophysics Current Viewpoints
Proceedings of the XXVII Int. Universitätswochen für Kernphysik Schladming, Austria, February 1988
1 online resource (x, 309 pages 100 illustrations)
Eight carefully written articles on the interactions between the ideas and concepts of particle physics and those of astrophysics make up this book. Two long introductory lectures give a survey of modern concepts in particle physics and in astrophysics and cosmology, stressing features of common interest. The other six contributions deal with the physics of supernova explosions, with black holes, with neutrino oscillations, with the importance of phase transitions for the large-scale structure of the Universe, and with the use of the ideas of quantum gravity for computer simulations. These rather detailed review articles will be of value for many years to come. The book is intended for graduate students and researchers both in particle physics and in astrophysics.
Introduction and Survey I: Concepts from Particle Physics -- Introduction and Survey II: Concepts from Astrophysics and Cosmology -- Physics of Type II Supernova Explosions -- Evidence for Black Holes -- Principles of Black Hole Energetics -- Quantum Gravity Motivated Computer Simulations -- Neutrino Oscillations and Their Damping -- Phase Transitions as the Origin of Large Scale Structure in the Universe.
