Introduction to Star Formation
Guiding the reader through all the stages that lead to the formation of a star such as our Sun, this advanced textbook provides students with a complete overview of star formation. Each chapter combines theory and observation, helping readers to connect with and understand the theory behind star formation. It examines the underlying physical processes that govern the evolution from a molecular cloud core to a main-sequence star, and focuses on the formation of solar-mass stars.
This is a unique, self-contained text with sufficient background information for self-study, and is ideal for students and professional researchers alike. Beginning with an explanation of the interstellar medium and molecular clouds as sites of star formation, subsequent chapters address the building of typical stars and the formation of high-mass stars, concluding with a discussion of the by-products and consequences of star formation.
