Астрофизика: от звезд до границ Вселенной from Coursera

Этот курс посвящен ключевым проблемам современной астрофизики: рождению, эволюции и финальной стадии жизни звезд. Некоторые из них, например, нейтронные звезды отличаются сверхвысокой плотностью вещества и сверхсильными магнитными полями — такие условия пока недостижимы для современных лабораторий. Как же ученые исследуют эти объекты? В курсе вы познакомитесь с работой специалистов астрофизики высоких энергий и нейтринной астрономии и разберетесь, зачем люди изучают вспышки сверхновых, ускорение заряженных частиц на космических ударных волнах и высокоэнергитичные нейтрино. А главы, посвященные теоретической и наблюдательной космологии, объяснят, как эта наука отвечает на вопросы о рождении Вселенной, динамике ее расширения и о формах материи ее заполняющих.
