Astrochemistry: From The Big Bang To The Present Day

Description: Astrochemistry: From The Big Bang To The Present DayAuthor(s): Claire Vallance Format: Hardback Publisher: World Scientific Europe Ltd, United Kingdom Imprint: World Scientific Europe Ltd ISBN-13: 9781786340375, 978-1786340375 Synopsis 'This book could appeal to astronomers interested in interstellar and circumstellar matter who would like to know more about the processes in them from a chemist???s perspective in a modern textbook. Overall, I found this book very informative and clearly written ?'The Observatory MagazineThe rapidly growing field of astrochemistry focuses on the chemistry occurring in stars, planets, and the interstellar medium, bringing together elements of chemistry, physics, astrophysics, and biology. Astrochemistry describes the chemical history of the Universe, our solar system, and our planet. It explores in some detail the 'alien' chemistry occurring in interstellar gas clouds, the regions where stars and planets are formed, and also looks at the theoretical and experimental methods that allow us to carry out Earth-based studies of [url] evolution of the Universe and the complex chemistry occurring both in interstellar space and in the planetary systems that form in these regions is explained primarily in terms of basic principles of physical chemistry. While there is plenty to interest the general reader, this book is aimed at intermediate to advanced undergraduates of chemistry and astrochemistry, highlighting many different aspects of physical chemistry and demonstrating their relevance to the world we live [url] book was written in conjunction with Atmospheric Chemistry: From the Surface to the Stratosphere, Grant Ritchie [tel] World Scientific Publishing.
