Foundations of Radiation Hydrodynamics

by Dimitri M. Mihalas, Barbara Weibel Mihalas, Barbara W. Mihalas

Largely self contained, this expert three-part treatment focuses on the dynamics of nonradiating fluids; explores the physics of radiation, radiation transport, and the dynamics of radiating fluids; and offers a brief appendix that explains the use of tensor concepts in equations related to the transition of ordinary fluids to relativistic fluids to radiation. 1984 edition.

[Peter Sprunger · Rating 4 out of 5]

I feel that I've read enough of this book to give it a rating. I believe the proper thing to say about this book is that it is an excellent, thorough reference. In other words once you get up the courage and force your way through a section, you have a very good idea of the physics and mathematics.
