Fusion cycles in stars and stellar neutrinos

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1 Nuclear Theory

Abstract

Starting from the early works by Weizsaecker and Bethe about fusion cycles and energy conversion in stars, a brief survey of thermonuclear processes in stars leading to contemporary research problems in this field is given. Special emphasis is put on the physics of stellar and, in particular, solar neutrinos which is at the frontline of current investigations.
