High energy radiation from black holes : gamma rays, cosmic rays, and neutrinos /
Beginning with Einstein's special and general theories of relativity, the authors give a detailed mathematical description of fundamental astrophysical radiation processes, including Compton scattering of electrons and photons, synchrotron radiation of particles in magnetic fields, and much mor...
