Thoroughly revised, expanded and updated throughout, this new
edition of Astrophysics of GaseousNebulae and Active Galactic
Nuclei is a graduate-level text and reference book on gaseous
nebulae, nova and supernova remnants, and the emission-line regions
in Seyfert galaxies, radio galaxies, quasars, and other types of
active galactic nuclei. Much of the new data and many of the new
images are from the Hubble Space Telescope and some of the largest
ground-based telescopes in the world. Two wholly new chapters have
been added, one on infrared astronomy and the other on X-ray
astronomy, reflecting the great advances in these fields. This new
edition also contains two completely new appendices, one a long
primer on the quantum-mechanical concepts used in the analysis of
nebular emission-line spectra, and the other a briefer description
of molecular spectra. Large amounts of new data on dust in nebulae
and quasars, and the photo-dissociated regions containing neutral
atoms, molecules, and dust within and around them, have also been
added to the book. Thus, the previous edition of this classic text,
which has been tried, tested, and widely used for thirty years, has
now been succeeded by a new, revised, updated, larger edition,
which will be valuable to anyone seriously interested in
astrophysics.
