On the Theory of Galactic Winds Driven by Supernovae and Radiation

Více o knize

Exploring the physics of galactic winds, this book delves into their vital role in galaxy formation and evolution, influencing star formation and the intergalactic medium. It examines various theoretical mechanisms, including supernovae explosions and radiation pressure from starlight, while highlighting the gaps in understanding when comparing theory with observation. Through a detailed discussion of supernova-driven and radiation pressure-driven models, the author aims to bridge the divide between theoretical explorations and empirical data.
