This collection of papers describes the evolutionary path of stars
of various masses. Observational data and theoretical modeling of
the stellar atmosphere and the stellar interior and their
interaction are presented, covering chemical peculiarities, mass
loss, and explosion, all of which are strongly related to the
hydrodynamic evolution of the interior. In particular the supernova
SN 1987 A is discussed for the first time in detail, including the
underground neutrino observations and the detection of X-rays from
the supernova. The study of its progenitor, a B 3 supergiant, was
related to the topics of chemical peculiarities and mass loss
mechanisms and atmospheric models. The intended readers are
professional astronomers and astrophysicists, as well as
physicists. The book will also be an important source of
information for graduate students.
