    • Pulsars As Astrophysical Laboratories for Nuclear and Particle Physics, Hardcover by Weber, F., ISBN 0750303328, ISBN-13 9780750303323, Brand New, Free shipping in the US

      Weber (theoretical physics, Ludwig-Maximilians U., Munich) points out that neutron stars, or pulsars, are one of the two natural stellar environments (white dwarves are the other) in which hot and dense material holds still long enough that its behavior can be explored and the equation of the state associated with it determined. Neglecting to explain why it is more convenient to study them in-situ rather than bring one into the laboratory, he considers such topics as observed properties of the stars, the spectral representation of the two-point Green function, partial-wave expansions, general relativity in a nutshell, strange quark matter stars, criteria for maximum rotation, and the cooling of neutron and strange stars. Among his 10 appendices are Internet addresses where the equations of state are available in tabular form. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
