Introduces hydrodynamics to undergraduate students in physics
and astrophysics.
Stellar winds are a common phenomenon in the life of stars, from
the dwarfs like the Sun to the red giants and hot supergiants,
constituting one of the basic aspects of modern astrophysics.
Stellar winds are a hydrodynamic phenomenon in which circumstellar
gases expand towards the interstellar medium. This book presents an
elementary introduction to the fundamentals of hydrodynamics with
an application to the study of stellar winds. The principles of
hydrodynamics have many other applications, so that the book can be
used as an introduction to hydrodynamics for students of physics,
astrophysics and other related areas.
