| Title | Spectroscopy: The Key to the Stars : Reading the Lines in Stellar Spectra |
| Author(s) | Robinson, Keith |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2007. |
| Description | XII, 160 p. 87 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | More can be learned about physical processes going on in stars and nebulae by understanding and analyzing their spectra than by any other means. Many amateur astronomers who use CCD cameras are taking up spectroscopy as part of their observational program, but until now the physics that underlies astronomical spectroscopy has been confined to advanced academic books. Not any more! In Spectroscopy ??? the Key to the Stars, Keith Robinson describes the physics and physical processes that cause the stellar spectra to be as they are??? spectra that amateur astronomers can image with today???s commercially-made equipment. Written specifically for amateur astronomers, this book assumes only a basic knowledge of physics but looks in detail at many topics, including energy levels in atoms, the molecular spectra of red stars, emission lines in nebulae, and much, much more. Here is everything you need to know about how the atomic processes in stars and nebulae produce the spectra that amateur astronomers can image, and why spectroscopy is such a powerful tool for astronomers |

| Title | Starlight : An Introduction to Stellar Physics for Amateurs |
| Author(s) | Robinson, Keith |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2009. |
| Description | IX, 277 p. 74 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | When you look up at the sky at night and see the stars, do you understand what you???re looking at? What is starlight made up of, and how does it travel to us? How are stars born, and how do they die? How do we figure out how far away are the stars and how massive they are? Can we know which stars will go supernova and which will end up as white dwarfs or black holes? How long will our Sun continue to shine down on us, and how do we know its age? There are so many questions, and in this engaging and informative book by Keith Robinson, which serves as a companion to his very popular earlier book called Spectroscopy ??? the Key to the Stars, you will learn the basics of stellar physics and the answers to many of these questions, as well as how to figure out some of those answers for yourself. We have come so far in our understanding of stellar light and heat. By reading this book, you, too, can understand many of the secrets of the fiery Sun that rules our Solar System and the gemlike points of light in the night sky |
