Radio Stars: Proceedings of a Workshop on Stellar Continuum Radio Astronomy Held in Boulder, Colorado, U.S.A., 810 August 1984 [Hardcover]

This book is the proceedings of a workshop on stellar continuum radio astronomy that was held in BoUlder, Colorado on August 8-10, 1984. Although it was originally intended to be a small workshop with participants mainly from North America, it evolved to a workshop with 72 partiCipants from twelve countries (U.S.A. 52, Canada 3, the Netherlands 3, United Kingdom 3, Australia 2, Ireland 2, Italy 2, France 1, Mexico 1, Switzerland 1, West Germany 1, and U.S.S.R. 1). This workshop was sponsored by the Joint Institute of Laboratory Astrophysics (JILA) and the University of Colorado. In order to preserve a workshop atmosphere, while still presenting both extensive reviews and contributed papers, an experimental format was adopted. All contributed papers related to the topiCS of the day were presented in poster form in the early morning and were accessible all day. During each morning (or afternoon) session review papers were presented, followed by a coffee break in the poster area adjacent to the conference room. Then the review papers and contributed papers were discussed for roughly one and a half hours. The last session was devoted to invited panel papers and discussion of current and future problems in the field of stellar radio astronomy.PartI  Theoretical Aspects of Stellar Radio Sources.- Radio Observable Processes in Stars (Invited Paper).- Stochastic Electron Acceleration in Stellar Coronae.- Implications of the 1400 MHz Flare Emission from AD Leo for the Emission Mechanism and Flare Environment.- Co-rotating Interaction Regions In Stellar Winds: Particle Acceleration and Non-Thermal Radio Emission in Hot Stars.- Bombardment Models of White Dwarf Accretion Columns.- Synchrotron Emission from Chaotic Stellar Winds.- Damping of the Magneto- Ionic Z Mode.- Electron-Cyclotron Maser Emission During Solar and Stellar Flares.- Discussion Related to Part I.- II  Winds, Interacting Winds, and other Outflows.- Thermal Radio Emission from the Winds of Single Stars (Invitl#.
