Stellar Explosions is a rigorous but accessible book about the physics of stellar explosions from a multidisciplinary perspective intersecting computational astrophysics, observational astronomy, cosmo-chemistry and nuclear physics. The basic concepts of these disciplines are applied to the study of classical and recurrent novae, supernovae type I and II, X-ray bursts and stellar coalescence.
