Supernovae and Nucleosynthesis : An Investigation of the History of Matter, from the Big Bang to the Present : 7

 

本書研究物質在宇宙大爆炸中的起源,氫和氦的宇宙學合成,以及構成我們的世界和我們自己一系列複雜的原子核發展過程。中心主題是重力包含的熱核反應堆的演變,也稱為恆星。我們通過將簡單的分析模型與最新、最先進的計算機模擬相結合,系統地和定量地提出我們當前的理解。

敘述從線索(主要是太陽系豐度模式),約束物理學(主要是核物理和粒子物理學)以及宇宙大爆炸中的熱核燃燒開始。它繼續逐步描述恆星如何通過核反應,超新星爆炸機制的重要研究以及中子星和黑洞的形成以及分析這些爆炸對天文學家如何顯現(通過比較來說明)與最近的觀察)。它總結了這些星系演化思想的綜合,對第一代恆星的核合成和太陽系豐度模式都有影響。

積極研究天文學、宇宙化學、物理學和行星與空間科學學科的研究領域,提供了大量參考文獻。

This book investigates the question of how matter has evolved since its origin in the Big Bang, from the cosmological synthesis of hydrogen and helium to the generation of the complex set of nuclei that comprise our world and our selves. A central theme is the evolution of gravitationally contained thermonuclear reactors, otherwise known as stars. Our current understanding is presented systematically and quantitatively, by combining simple analytic models with new state-of-the-art computer simulations.

 

The narrative begins with the clues (primarily the solar system abundance pattern), the constraining physics (primarily nuclear and particle physics), and the thermonuclear burning in the Big Bang itself. It continues with a step-by-step description of how stars evolve by nuclear reactions, a critical investigation of supernova explosion mechanisms and the formation of neutron stars and of black holes, and an analysis of how such explosions appear to astronomers (illustrated by comparison with recent observations). It concludes with a synthesis of these ideas for galactic evolution, with implications for nucleosynthesis in the first generation of stars and for the solar system abundance pattern.
Emphasis is given to questions that remain open, and to active research areas that bridge the disciplines of astronomy, cosmochemistry, physics, and planetary and space science. Extensive references are given.
