Product details

"Introduction to Black Hole Astrophysics" is a specialized book based on the lecture notes of a one-semester course on the astrophysics of black holes. It is aimed at advanced students of astronomy and related fields. The book provides a comprehensive presentation of the astrophysical phenomena associated with black holes and goes beyond the content of traditional textbooks. It covers topics such as the physics of jets, microquasars, active galactic nuclei, gamma-ray bursts, and ultra-luminous X-ray sources. Additionally, advanced topics like black holes in alternative gravity theories are also discussed. The author has made an effort to avoid unnecessary technical details, making the book somewhat self-contained. The initial chapters provide fundamental tools of general relativity, while the appendices offer additional mathematical details and a bibliography for further study.
