Radiation Generation and Transport in Astrophysical Environments

Review of Electrodynamics → Radiative Transfer in Expanding Media

This graduate-level path equips learners with the physical principles and mathematical tools to understand how radiation is produced and transported in astrophysical settings. It covers thermal bremsstrahlung, synchrotron radiation, inverse Compton scattering, dust emission, and line radiation, culminating in radiative transfer in expanding media. The path assumes foundational knowledge in electrodynamics, quantum mechanics, statistical physics, and radiative transfer basics.
