Synopsis :

This book explores the biggest gaps in our understanding of the universe. It describes how astronomers see and gather information and covers topics where knowledge is incomplete. Topics include dark matter, the Hubble constant/tension, deaths of massive stars, mysteries associated with black holes, neutron stars and binary/multiple systems.

À propos de l?auteur: Nicole Lloyd-Ronning is an astrophysicist in Northern New Mexico who studies all aspects of the physics behind the deaths of massive stars, the black hole-accretion disk systems they leave behind, the relativistic jets they launch, and the role these events play in global star formation throughout the history of our universe. She received the Distinguished Mentor Award at Los Alamos National Lab in 2019, the Faculty Initiative Award at University of New Mexico, Los Alamos in 2020 and the Los Alamos National Lab Community Medal in 2021.
