Contents:
Extended Topics -- Nuclear Astrophysics: Evolution of Stars from Hydrogen Burning to Supernova Explosion -- Pulsars as Probes of Relativistic Gravity, Nuclear Matter, and Astrophysical Plasmas -- Theory of Gamma-Ray Burst Sources -- Understanding Galaxy Formation and Evolution -- Ultra-high Energy Cosmic Rays: From GeV to ZeV -- Astronomical Technical Reviews -- Radio Astronomy: The Achievements and the Challenges -- Gamma-ray Astrophysics - Before GLAST -- Gravitational Wave Detectors: A New Window to the Universe -- Research Short Contributions -- Hybrid Extensive Air Shower Detector Array at the University of Puebla to Study Cosmic Rays -- Search for Gamma Ray Bursts at Sierra Negra, México -- Are There Strangelets Trapped by the Geomagnetic Field? -- Late Time Behavior of Non Spherical Collapse of Scalar Field Dark Matter -- Inhomogeneous Dark Matter in Non-trivial Interaction with Dark Energy -- Mini-review on Scalar Field Dark Matter.
In: Springer eBooksSummary: This book collects extended and specialized reviews on topics linking astrophysics and particle physics at a level intermediate between a graduate student and a young researcher. The book includes also three reviews on observational techniques used in forefront astrophysics and short articles on research performed in Latin America. The reviews, updated and written by specialized researchers, describe the state of the art in the related research topics. This book is a valuable complement not only for research but also for lecturers in specialized course of high energy astrophysics, cosmic ray astrophysics and particle physics.
