Opis

Black holes exist in galactic nuclei and in some X-ray binaries found in our own galaxy and the large Magellanic Cloud. This volume focuses on astrophysical high-energy emission processes around black holes, and the development of theoretical frameworks for interesting observational results. Contents: Black Hole Observations; Accretion Disk/Formation of Jets; Energy Extraction from Rotating Black Holes; Supernova and Gamma Ray Bursts; Black Hole Astrophysics. Readership: Graduate students, post-docs and academics in astrophysics, astronomy, cosmology and high energy physics.
