Nuclear astrophysics in our time: supernovae, neutron stars and binary neutron star mergers

Debades Bandyopadhyay. Eur Phys J Spec Top. 2021.

Abstract

This volume focuses on topical issues in nuclear astrophysics, particularly supernovae, neutron stars, and binary neutron star mergers. An overview of those topics is presented in this editorial. The lasting impact of the Saha equation on astrophysics over the past hundred years is highlighted here.
