This book summarizes the recent progress in the physics and
astrophysics of neutron stars and, most importantly, it identifies
and develops effective strategies to explore, both theoretically
and observationally, the many remaining open questions in the
field. Because of its significance in the solution of many
fundamental questions in nuclear physics, astrophysics and
gravitational physics, the study of neutron stars has seen enormous
progress over the last years and has been very successful in
improving our understanding in these fascinating compact objects.
The book addresses a wide spectrum of readers, from students to
senior researchers. Thirteen chapters written by internationally
renowned experts offer a thorough overview of the various facets of
this interdisciplinary science, from neutron star formation in
supernovae, pulsars, equations of state super dense matter,
gravitational wave emission, to alternative theories of gravity.
The book was initiated by the European Cooperation in Science and
Technology (COST) Action MP1304 "Exploring fundamental physics with
compact stars" (NewCompStar).
