Icko Iben, Jr is Emeritus Distinguished Professor of Astronomy and Physics at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, where he also gained his MS and PhD degrees in Physics and where a Distinguished Lectureship in his name was established in 1998. He initiated his teaching career at Williams College (1958-1961), engaged in astrophysics research as a Senior Research Fellow at Cal Tech (1961-1964), and continued his teaching career at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (1964-1972) and Illinois (1972-1999). He has held visiting Professorships at over a dozen institutions, including Harvard University, the University of California, Santa Cruz, the University of Bologna, Italy and Niigata University, Japan. He was elected to the US National Academy of Sciences in 1985 and his awards include the Russell Lectureship of the American Astronomical Society (1989), the George Darwin Lectureship (1984) and the Eddington Medal (1990) of the Royal Astronomical Society, and the Eminent Scientist Award of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (2003-2004).

binary star evolution; 2. Quantitative foundations of stellar evolution
theory; Part II. Basic Physical Processes in Stellar Interiors: 3.
Properties of and physical processes in the interiors of main sequence

structure and evolution; 6. Hydrogen-burning nuclear reactions and
energy-generation rates; 7. Photon-matter interactions and opacity; 8.
Equations of stellar evolution and methods of solution; Part III. Pre-Main
Sequence, Main Sequence, and Shell Hydrogen Burning Evolution of Single
Stars: 9. Star formation and evolution to the main-sequence; 10. Solar
structure and neutrino physics; 11. Evolution during core hydrogen-burning
phases up to the onset of helium burning; Index.
