Ever wondered if the chemical processes taking place in space could
be related to the origins of life? The authors of this book, both
experienced astrochemists, embark on a discussion to find the
answers to this question and more, and include a general
introduction to astrochemistry for chemistry students. They explore
chemistry occurring in the universe from its very early beginnings
until the present era. Based on our current understanding,
astrochemistry is known to occur in interstellar gas, on dust
grains and in interstellar ices, in stellar atmospheres and
envelopes, in dense star- and planet-forming regions, and on
planets and other bodies in planetary systems. Recent observational
discoveries supported by remarkable laboratory work emphasize
chemical complexity, leading to answers to the tantalizing
question: can this complexity be related to the origin of life?
This book provides the tools to enable chemistry students to make
their own computational investigations of astrochemistry and
directs study across the chemical sciences and astronomy.
Concentrating on fundamental processes, this book is a useful
teaching aid.
