Title: Topics in cosmic-ray astrophysics
First published: 1999
Description: "Cosmic radiation has been an active field of study at least since the heroic balloon flights of Viktor F. Hess in the first decade of this century.

Today, cosmic-ray astrophysics touches on the nuclear astrophysics of stars and supernova, particle physics at energies above those achievable by terrestrial accelerators, the cosmology of the microwave and IR backgrounds, the Galactic physics of chemical evolution and interstellar medium processes, and unexplored physics at extremely high energies."--BOOK JACKET. "This book deals with charged cosmic rays, primarily nuclei, from Galactic and extra-Galactic sources."--BOOK JACKET.
Subjects: Astrophysics, Cosmic rays
