The synthesis of the elements : the astrophysical quest for nucleosynthesis and what it can tell us about the universe
This book describes the origins and evolution of the chemical elements we and the cosmos are made of. The story starts with the discovery of the common elements on Earth and their subsequent discovery in space. How do we learn the composition of the distant stars? How did progress in quantum theory...
