Synchrotron Radiation Instrumentation: SRI99: Eleventh US National Conference Stanford, CA, USA, 13-15 October 1999 (AIP Conference Proceedings / Accelerators, Beams, and Instrumentations)

This conference presents invited and contributed papers by international experts devoted to explosive phenomena in cosmic settings as diverse as stellar flares, X-ray bursts, jets, novae, supernovae, hypernovae, and gamma-ray bursts. The conference considered not only the origins of explosive behavior, but also information about the host systems that the explosive phenomena might yield. For example, X-ray bursts can be used to determine structural parameters of neutron stars, and specific types of supernovae can be used as standard candles to study the deceleration of the Hubble expansion.Synchrotron Radiation Instrumentation: SRI99: Eleventh US National Conference Stanford, CA, USA, 13-15 October 1999 (AIP Conference Proceedings / Accelerators, Beams, and Instrumentations), 1 was published 2000 under ISBN 9781563969416 and ISBN 1563969416.
