Mer om författaren

Chris Campbell was formerly a Reader in Astrophysics at Newcastle University.He has published papers in leading astrophysical journals in the areas of tidal theory, stellar oscillations and a range of magnetohydrodynamics problems, particularly related to accretion processes, associated outflows and close binary stars.

Recensioner i media

“It is … a book that rewards patient and detailed reading, and which provides an excellent theoretical background to the role of magnetic fields in close-binary systems.” (Moira Jardine, The Observatory, Vol. 140 (1275), April, 2020)
