Relativistic Astrophysics

宇宙中最神秘的两种天体 宇宙是中子星星和黑洞。 校长 研究者（PI）建议继续其研究， 这些物体的基础物理学及其 对外界的影响。 在此期间， 注意力将集中在量子场效应上， 这些物体中的流体状态方程，黑洞， 引力坍缩，以及红超巨星的结构， 中子星 这项提议的一个重要方面是， 是PI对研究生和博士后的培训 在这一地区。 PI因其教学而闻名 这些能力为科学家提供了一个熟悉 理论天体物理学、粒子物理学和广义相对论 二十多年了

Two of the most esoteric kinds of astrophysical objects in the Universe are the neutron star and the black hole. The Principal Investigator (PI) proposes to continue his studies for another three years of the fundamental physics of these objects and their influence on matter just outside them. During this grant period attention will be focussed on quantum field effects on the equations of state of fluids in these objects, black holes and gravitational collapse, and the structure of red supergiants having neutron stars in their cores. An important aspect of this proposal is the PI's training of graduate students and postdoctoral fellows in this area. The PI is widely known for his instructional abilities which have provided a pool of scientists conversant in theoretical astrophysics, particle physics, and General Relativity for over twenty years.
