The book covers many aspects of theoretical and observational star formation: low-mass star formation; young circumstellar discs; computational methods; triggered star formation; the stellar initial mass function; high-mass star formation; and stellar clusters. Each section starts with a review paper, followed by papers discussing recent theoretical and observational work. This volume summarises our current understanding of star formation and is useful for both graduate students and researchers alike.Astrophysics and Space Science Proceedings,1570-6591 ;36AstrophysicsObservations, AstronomicalAstronomy—ObservationsPhysicsCosmologySpace sciencesAstrophysics and Astroparticleshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22022Astronomy, Observations and Techniqueshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22014Numerical and Computational Physics, Simulationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19021Cosmologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22049Space Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics)https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22030Astrophysics.Observations, Astronomical.Astronomy—Observations.Physics.Cosmology.Space sciences.Astrophysics and Astroparticles.Astronomy, Observations and Techniques.Numerical and Computational Physics, Simulation.Cosmology.Space Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics).523.8Stamatellos Dimitrisedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtGoodwin Simonedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtWard-Thompson Derekedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910300390703321The Labyrinth of Star Formation2529804UNINA
