This volume is published in honor of Friedrich Hund's 100th
birthday. It is a modern review on matter at high densities and
pressures in astrophysics from Hund's early contribution to
present-day ideas. The relation between the equation of state and
the structure of compact cosmic objects is discussed, and two main
contributions deal with the equation of state of baryonic matter at
nuclear densities and with the numerical solution of the general
relativistic field equations for non-rotating and rapidly rotating
neutron stars. In a final chapter the present state of
asteroseismology is presented as a tool to explore the interior of
cosmic objects by analyzing the observed free oscillations of the
Earth, the Sun, and white dwarf stars.
