Providing students with an in-depth account of the astrophysics of high energy phenomena in the Universe, the third edition of this well-established textbook is ideal for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate courses in high energy astrophysics. Building on the concepts and techniques taught in standard undergraduate courses, this textbook provides

Papers from an April 1997 meeting explore recent advances in areas including galactic dynamos, probing the universe with weak lensing, nucleosynthesis in asymptotic giant branch stars, physical conditions in regions of star formation, and high-energy processes in young stellar objects. Other subjects are sources of relativistic jets in the galaxy,

Supernova explosions are not only important to the ecology of the universe, seeding it, among other things, with the heavy elements necessary for the existence of life, but they are also a natural laboratory in which a host of unique physical phenomena occur. While still far from a complete understanding,
