Introduction to Astrochemistry Chemical Evolution From Interstellar Clouds to Star And Planet Formation

This important book describes the basic principles of astrochemistry―an interdisciplinary field combining astronomy, physics, and chemistry―with particular emphasis on its physical and chemical background. Chemical processes in diffuse clouds, dense quiescent molecular clouds, star-forming regions, and protoplanetary disks are discussed.
