Dániel Apai, Dante S. Lauretta Издательство:Cambridge University Press Год издания: 2009 Страниц: 395 ISBN:0521517729 Формат: PDF Размер:3,3 Mб Язык: английский Planet formation studies uniquely benefit from three disciplines:
astronomical observations of extrasolar planet-forming disks, analysis
of material from the early Solar System, and laboratory astrophysics
experiments. Pre-planetary solids, fine dust, and chondritic components
are central elements linking these studies. This book is the first
comprehensive overview of planet formation, in which astronomers,
cosmochemists, and laboratory astrophysicists jointly discuss the
latest insights from the Spitzer and Hubble space telescopes, new
interferometers, space missions including Stardust and Deep Impact, and
laboratory techniques. Following the evolution of solids from their
genesis through protoplanetary disks to rocky planets, the book
discusses in detail how the latest results from these disciplines fit
into a coherent picture. This volume provides a clear introduction and
valuable reference for students and researchers in astronomy,
cosmochemistry, laboratory astrophysics, and planetary sciences.
