| Title | Introduction to Stellar Structure |
| Author(s) | Maciel, Walter J |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2016. |
| Description | XV, 215 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | In the first part of this book, the author presents the basic properties of the stellar interior and describes them thoroughly, along with deriving the main stellar structure equations of temperature, density, pressure and luminosity, among others. The process and application of solving these equations is explained, as well as linking these results with actual observations. The second part of the text describes what happens to a star over time, and how to determine this by solving the same equations at different points during a star???s lifetime. The fate of various stars is quite different depending on their masses, and this is described in the final parts of the book. This text can be used for an upper level undergraduate course or an introductory graduate course on stellar physics |

| Title | Hydrodynamics and Stellar Winds : An Introduction |
| Author(s) | Maciel, Walter J |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2014. |
| Description | XVII, 178 p. 30 illus., 2 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | 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 |

| Title | Astrophysics of the Interstellar Medium |
| Author(s) | Maciel, Walter J |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2013. |
| Description | XVI, 258 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The space between the stars includes a large variety of objects, where physical processes occur that are fundamental for the structure and evolution of galaxies. This book gives the reader some basic knowledge of these processes and at the same time, presents estimates of the main quantities relevant to the study of the interstellar medium. The book could be used as an introductory course on the interstellar medium?? by science students or by readers interested in astrophysics with an adequate physics and mathematics background |
