Equations of Stellar Structure

Dave0301 · 2018-10-15 12:02:11

Hello, I am just wondering if anyone can make any good recommendations for some further reading on the equations of stellar structure; e.g. hydrostatic equilibrium, energy transport etc. Happy to invest in a good book if there is one, or read through some material online. Thanks.

Stellar Structure and Evolution by Kippenhann and Weigert is the book for it, but it can be pretty expensive. Check for older editions second hand online or any nearby university library first maybe
