Neutrinos and the Stars
by Georg Raffelt
Publisher: arXiv 2012
Number of pages: 83
Description:
The role of neutrinos in stars is introduced for students with little prior astrophysical exposure. We begin with neutrinos as an energy-loss channel in ordinary stars and conversely, how stars provide information on neutrinos and possible other low-mass particles.

Special Functions: Fractional Calculus and the Pathway for Entropyby Hans J. Haubold (ed.) - MDPI AG
The notion of entropy emerged in conceptually very distinct contexts. This book deals with the connection between entropy, probability, and fractional dynamics as they appeared, for example, in solar neutrino astrophysics since the 1970's.
