Astrophysics

Astrophysics is a branch of astronomy that applies the principles of physics and chemistry to understand the properties and behavior of celestial bodies and the universe as a whole. It encompasses the study of phenomena such as the formation, evolution, and dynamics of stars, galaxies, and the cosmos. Astrophysicists investigate various aspects, including the nature of light, gravitational forces, cosmic structures, and the fundamental laws governing the universe. By integrating theoretical and observational methods, astrophysics seeks to explain the underlying mechanisms driving astronomical events, such as the Big Bang, black holes, neutron stars, and the expansion of the universe.
