Volume 1 ofRelativistic Astrophysicsby famed Russian scientists explores general relativity, properties of matter under astrophysical conditions, stars and stellar systems. Presentation remarkable for deep physical insights and clarity of expression. Invaluable resource for physicists, astronomers, graduate students. 72 figures. 21 tables. 1971 edition.
Yakov B. Zel'dovich (1914–87) played an important role in the development of Soviet nuclear and thermonuclear weapons. He also made key contributions to the fields of adsorption and catalysis, shock waves, nuclear physics, particle physics, astrophysics, physical cosmology, and general relativity.
Igor Dmitriyevich Novikov (1935–) is a Russian theoretical astrophysicist and cosmologist who formulated the Novikov self-consistency principle, an important contribution to the theory of time travel. He has worked at the Russian Space Research Institute, the Lebedev Physical Institute, Moscow State University, and the University of Copenhagen.
