Recent work on disk instabilities and dynamics has given a new theoretical framework with which to study accretion disks. Modeling of time-dependent phenomena provides new insight into the causes and interpretation of photometric and spectroscopic variability and new constraints on the fundamental physical problem — the origin of viscosity in accretion disks. This book contains expert reviews on the nature of limit cycle thermal instabilities and a variety of closely related topics from the theory of angular momentum transport to eclipse mapping of the disk structure. The result is a comprehensive contemporary survey of the structure and evolution of accretion disks in compact binary systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"World Scientific","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32123073724529,"sku":"9789810212735","price":232.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/0041\/products\/9789810212735.jpg?v=1602757467","url":"https:\/\/epigrambookshop.xyz\/products\/accretion-disks-in-compact-stellar-systems","provider":"Epigram","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
