An Introduction to Modern Astrophysics notes

A formula sheet with the relevant formulas from BOB for the Stellar Astrophysics course. The formulas are numbered to match the formulas in the book. Many formulas have a brief explanation.

Exam (elaborations) TEST BANK FOR An Introduction to Modern Astrophysics By Carroll B.W. and Ostlie D.A. (Solution manual) CHAPTER 1 The Celestial Sphere 1.1 From Fig. 1.7, Earth makes S=P˚ orbits about the Sun during the time required for another planet to make S=P orbits. If that other planet is a superior planet then Earth must make one extra trip around the Sun to overtake it, hence S P˚ D S P C 1: Similarly, for an inferior planet, that planet must make the extra trip, or S ...

Stellar Astrophysics. This is a summary of the the book "An Modern Introduction to Stellar Astrophysics" by Dale. A. Ostlie and Bradley W. Carroll. This summary contains the most important knowledge and equations from chapters 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 15 and 16. Included are the laws of motion (Kepler's Laws), the behaviour of light, het Boltzmann and Saha equation, the description of the interior of stars, stellar evolution and much more stuff. Especially on the first half of this su...
