Astronomy and astrophysics : recent developments : proceedings of the 10th Portuguese meeting : CENTRA, Lisbon, Portugal, 27-28 July 2000 /

This book discusses many of the recent theoretical and observational developments that have significant implications for astronomy and astrophysics. The main themes are (i) cosmology, (ii) gravitational wave astronomy and gravitational physics, (iii) stellar astrophysics, and (iv) active galactic nu...
