| 520 | 3 | |a The fascinating and observationally spectacular world of binary stars is a vast and beautiful one that is a significant aspect of many astrophysical studies. Modeling and Analysis of Eclipsing Binary Stars gives a comprehensive analysis and description of the science behind eclipsing binaries. It also explores the assumptions and the difficulties that can occur when using the modeling principles of the classical codes as well as introducing PHOEBE (the PHysics Of Eclipsing BinariEs)--a modern suite for modeling binary stars. PHOEBE was conceived by Andrej Prša and his collaborators, and has become one of the standard tools in the eclipsing binary field. | |

| 545 | |a Andrej Prša is a Slovenian astrophysicist who obtained his PhD in physics from the University of Ljubljana in 2005. The principal result of his doctoral thesis was PHOEBE (PHysics Of Eclipsing BinariEs), a modeling suite for binary stars that has since become one of the standards in the binary star community. Prša is passionate about his subject and he is a dedicated teacher and astrophysicist whose research and work is a huge asset to the astronomical community. | ||
