Description for Formation & Early Evolution Of Stars A
Hardback. This book details complex physical processes involved in the creation and early evolution of stars. It illustrates how these processes reveal themselves from radio wavelengths to high energy X-rays and gamma-rays, with reference towards high energy signatures. Series: Astronomy and Astrophysics Library. Num Pages: 540 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PGC; PGM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 33. Weight in Grams: 968.
Starburst regions in nearby and distant galaxies have a profound impact on our understanding of the early universe. This new, substantially updated and extended edition of Norbert Schulz’s unique book "From Dust to Stars" describes complex physical processes involved in the creation and early evolution of stars. It illustrates how these processes reveal themselves from radio wavelengths to high energy X-rays and gamma–rays, with special reference towards high energy signatures. Several sections devoted to key analysis techniques demonstrate how modern research in this field is pursued and new chapters are introduced on massive star formation, proto-planetary disks and observations of ...

Reviews for Formation & Early Evolution Of Stars A
From the reviews: "In ten chapters, Schulz (MIT) does an excellent job developing the story historically, explaining how stars are formed from gas and dust in interstellar nurseries located in molecular clouds. … It has equations and derivations, and cites background reading (944 references). Included are 18 color plates seven pages of abbreviations, 8 pages ... Read more
