商品描述

Common envelope evolution is the most important phase in the lives of many significant classes of binary stars. During a common envelope phase, the stars temporarily share the same outer layers, with the cores of both stars orbiting inside the same common envelope. This common envelope is sometimes ejected and helps to explain the formation of a wide variety of astrophysical phenomena, including cataclysmic variables, X-ray binaries, progenitors for type Ia supernovae, and gravitational-wave mergers.

Modeling common envelope evolution is a challenging problem, and this important process has typically been described in evolutionary models using very approximate treatments. This book explains the physics of common envelope evolution and relates it to the approximations that are frequently used for modeling the onset, progression, and outcome of common envelope phases.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

共同包層演化是許多重要類別的雙星生命中最重要的階段。在共同包層階段，恆星暫時共享相同的外層，兩顆恆星的核心在同一共同包層內運行。這個共同包層有時會被拋出，並有助於解釋各種天體物理現象的形成，包括劇變變星、X 射線雙星、Ia 型超新星的前驅者以及引力波合併事件。

建模共同包層演化是一個具有挑戰性的問題，這一重要過程通常在演化模型中使用非常近似的處理方式來描述。本書解釋了共同包層演化的物理學，並將其與建模共同包層階段的開始、進展和結果時常用的近似方法相關聯。

作者簡介

Natalia Ivanova is a Professor of theoretical and computational astrophysics within the Physics Department, University of Alberta. Her scientific interests include everything about the understanding of single, binary, multiple stars and clusters of them, stellar physics, and numerical codes that can create a star or many of them inside a computer. In 2010, she was appointed as Canada Research Chair in astronomy and astrophysics.

Stephen Justham is currently based at the University of Amsterdam, where he is an acting group leader, on extended leave from a Professorship at the University of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. His research focuses on understanding the physics and consequences of stellar interactions, including how those help to explain the observed variety of stellar systems and explosive transients.

Paul Ricker is a Professor of astronomy at the University of Illinois. His primary research interests lie in the application of hydrodynamical simulation to galaxy clusters and interacting binary stars. He is one of the principal authors of the widely-used Flash simulation code, sharing in the 2000 Gordon Bell Prize and, in 2001, he received the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE).

娜塔莉亞·伊萬諾娃（Natalia Ivanova）是阿爾伯塔大學物理系的理論與計算天體物理學教授。她的科學興趣包括對單星、雙星、多星系及其星團的理解、恆星物理學，以及能夠在計算機內創建一顆或多顆恆星的數值代碼。2010年，她被任命為加拿大天文學與天體物理學研究主席。

史蒂芬·賈斯坦（Stephen Justham）目前在阿姆斯特丹大學工作，擔任代理小組負責人，並從中國科學院大學的教授職位中延長休假。他的研究重點是理解恆星相互作用的物理學及其後果，包括這些相互作用如何幫助解釋觀察到的恆星系統和爆炸瞬變的多樣性。

保羅·里克（Paul Ricker）是伊利諾伊大學的天文學教授。他的主要研究興趣在於將流體動力學模擬應用於星系團和相互作用的雙星系統。他是廣泛使用的Flash模擬代碼的主要作者之一，並於2000年獲得戈登·貝爾獎，2001年獲得總統早期科學家與工程師獎（PECASE）。
