Cosmochemistry is a rapidly evolving field of planetary science and
the second edition of this classic text reflects the exciting
discoveries made over the past decade from new spacecraft missions.
Topics covered include the synthesis of elements in stars,
behaviour of elements and isotopes in the early solar nebula and
planetary bodies, and compositions of extra-terrestrial materials.
Radioisotope chronology of the early Solar System is also
discussed, as well as geochemical exploration of planets by
spacecraft, and cosmochemical constraints on the formation of solar
systems. Thoroughly updated throughout, this new edition features
significantly expanded coverage of chemical fractionation and
isotopic analyses; focus boxes covering basic definitions and
essential background material on mineralogy, organic chemistry and
quantitative topics; and a comprehensive glossary. An appendix of
analytical techniques and end-of-chapter review questions, with
solutions available at www.cambridge.org/cosmochemistry2e, also
contribute to making this the ideal teaching resource for courses
on the Solar System's composition as well as a valuable reference
for early career researchers.
