High Time Resolution Astrophysics (HTRA) is an important new window to the universe and a vital tool in understanding a range of phenomena from diverse objects and radiative processes. This importance is demonstrated in this volume with the description of a number of topics in astrophysics, including quantum optics, cataclysmic variables, pulsars, X-ray binaries and stellar pulsations to name a few. Underlining this science foundation, technological developments in both instrumentation and detectors are described. These instruments and detectors combined cover a wide range of timescales and can measure fluxes, spectra and polarisation. These advances make it possible for HTRA to make a big contribution to our understanding of the Universe in the next decade.

Un tour d’horizon de l’astrophysique contemporaine. Une synthèse fondamentale, sans précédent, ouverte à tous. Les plus récentes découvertes présentées par les meilleurs spécialistes. Le Soleil et l’ensemble du système planétaire. Les étoiles et le milieu interstellaire. Les galaxies et les grandes structures de l’Univers. La cosmologie... Où en est l’astronomie, aujourd’hui ? Quelles révolutions a-t-elle traversées ? Qu’en est-il de la Terre ? De la vie, ailleurs, dans l’Univers ? De la recherche d’exoplanètes ? Des moyens les plus récents et les moins conventionnels d’observer le ciel ? Qu’en sera-t-il, demain, des savants, de leurs laboratoires, de leurs instruments, de leurs méthodes, de leurs découvertes ? Voici, enfin, un panorama complet et inédit sur la façon dont les astrophysiciens voient et comprennent ce Monde qui est le nôtre.

In the last century, astronomy, astrophysics, and cosmology have evolved from observational and theoretical pursuits into more experimental science, with many stellar and planetary processes recreated in physics laboratories and extensively studied. This book provides new research in the field of astrophysics. Chapter One provides a review of theoretical and experimental nuclear reaction and decay data for stellar and explosive nucleosynthesis, as well as modern computation tools and methods. Chapter Two provides a brief overview of the Chelyabinsk meteorite which fell over the region of Chelyabinsk city nearby Southern Ural Mountains (West Siberia) on the February 15, 2013. Chapter Three discusses the local entropy equilibrium condition of an ideal gas in a static gravitational field, and its applications to some topics in astrophysics.
