Biographical Note
Alexei M. Khokhlov (1954-2019) was a professor in the Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics and the Enrico Fermi Institute at the University of Chicago. He graduated from Moscow State University with Honors. He completed his doctorate in 1983 at the Institute of Applied Mathematics in Moscow. Before joining University of Chicago in 2003, he worked at the Institute of Astronomy at the Russian Academy of Sciences, was a Visiting Fellow at the Max-Planck Institute for Astrophysics, and served as a research associate and research scientist at the University of Texas-Austin's Astronomy Department and the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington DC.
In his 13-year-long professorship at the University of Chicago, his research mainly focused on thermonuclear-powered supernovae (exploding white dwarf stars so bright they can be measured at great distances). This collection consists of his course notes and lectures. This material would be of interest to researchers in the fields of Computational Physics, Astrophysics with particular emphasis of stellar processes.
