Ch. 35: Reflection and Refraction of Light
... Reflection and Transmission Most materials reflect light (partially or totally). For example, metals reflect light (almost totally) because an incident oscillating light beam causes the metal’s nearly free electrons to oscillate, setting up another (reflected) electromagnetic wave. Opaque materials ...

Protoplanetary disks, jets, and the birth of the stars

The birth of a star is accompanied by the formation of a surrounding disk of gas and dust containing the high-angular-momentum material of the collapsing envelope that could not fall directly onto the central (proto)star. This disk constitutes a reservoir of mass that slowly accretes onto the centra ...

Astronomical spectroscopy
Astronomical spectroscopy is the study of astronomy using the techniques of spectroscopy to measure the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation, including visible light, which radiates from stars and other hot celestial objects. Spectroscopy can be used to derive many properties of distant stars and galaxies, such as their chemical composition, temperature, density, mass, distance, luminosity, and relative motion using Doppler shift measurements.
