This comprehensive volume reviews our understanding of the origin
and evolution of elements, from stellar nucleosynthesis to the
chemical evolution of the cosmos. With chapters by leading
authorities in the field, it describes models of how the elements
are produced by stars, the nuclear processes involved, and how the
quantity of elements evolved in our Galaxy and distant galaxies.
The observed chemical composition of stars in different locations
within our Galaxy and nearby galaxies is discussed, as are the
compositions of hot and cold gases, of dust grains found between
stars and in meteorites, and of the integrated light from distant
galaxies and quasars. This authoritative volume is a valuable
resource for graduate students and professional research
astronomers.
C-XSC is a tool for the development of numerical algorithms
delivering highly accurate and automatically verified results. It
provides a large number of predefined numerical data types and
operators. These types are implemented as C++ classes. Thus, C-XSC
allows high-level programming of numerical applications in C and
C++. The most important features of C-XSC are: real, complex,
interval, and complex interval arithmetic; dynamic vectors and
matrices; subarrays of vectors and matrices; dotprecision data
types, predefined arithmetic operators with maximum accuracy;
standard functions of high accuracy; multiple precision arithmetic
and standard functions; rounding control for I/O data; error
handling, and library of problem solving routines with automatic
result verification. Thus, C-XSC makes the computer more powerful
concerning the arithmetic. C-XSC is immediately usable by C
programmers, easy to learn, user-extendable, and may also be
combined with other tools. The book can be used as a textbook and
as a reference manual. It consists of an introduction to advanced
computer arithmetic, a chapter describing the programming languages
C and C++, the major chapter "C-XSC Reference," sample programs,
and indices.
