Astrochemistry and Astrobiology
Springer 2012; US$ 139.99"Astrochemistry and Astrobiology" is the debut volume in the new series "Physical Chemistry in Action". Aimed at both the novice and experienced researcher, this volume outlines the physico-chemical principles which underpin our attempts to understand astrochemistry and predict astrobiology. An introductory chapter includes fundamental... more...
The Chemical Cosmos
Springer 2011; US$ 23.99If you have ever wondered how we get from the awesome impersonality of the Big Bang universe to the point where living creatures can start to form, and evolve into beings like you, your friends and your family, wonder no more. Steve Miller provides us with a tour through the chemical evolution of the universe, from the formation of the first molecules... more...
Reviews in Modern Astronomy, Deciphering the Universe through Spectroscopy
Wiley 2011; US$ 175.00This 22nd volume in the series contains 15 invited reviews and highlight contributions from outstanding speakers presented during the 2009 annual meeting of the Astronomical Society on the subject of "Deciphering the Universe through Spectroscopy", held in Potsdam, Germany. Topics range from the measurements of magnetic fields on the surface of the... more...
Chemistry in Space
Wiley 2010; US$ 135.00The dynamic field of extraterrestrial chemistry brings together ideas of chemistr, astrophysics, and biology to the study of molecules between stars, around stars, and on plantes. This book serves as an introduction to chemial processes under ?unearthly? and hence usually extreme conditions (temperature, pressure, high or low density, bombardment by... more...
Cosmochemistry
Cambridge University Press 2010; US$ 68.00Provides the first interdisciplinary introduction to cosmochemistry, making this exciting and evolving field accessible to undergraduate and graduate students. more...
Principles and Perspectives in Cosmochemistry
Springer 2010; US$ 239.99A fundamental question in contemporary astrophysics is the origin of the elements. Cosmochemistry seeks to answer when, how and where the chemical elements arose. Quantitative answers to these fundamental questions require a multi-disciplinary approach involving stellar evolution, explosive nucleosynthesis and nuclear reactions in different astrophysical... more...
The Metal-Rich Universe
Cambridge University Press 2008; US$ 60.00The first book on metal-rich stars for researchers and graduate students in extragalactic astronomy. more...
Cold Aqueous Planetary Geochemistry with Frezchem
Springer 2007; US$ 109.99This book explicitly investigates issues of astrobiological relevance in the context of cold aqueous planetary geochemistry. At the core of the technical chapters is the FREZCHEM model, initially developed over many years by one of the authors to quantify aqueous electrolyte properties and chemical thermodynamics at subzero temperatures. FREZCHEM,... more...
Astrochemistry
Wiley 2007; US$ 190.00The dynamic field of astrochemistry brings together ideas of physics, astrophysics, biology and chemistry to the study of molecules between stars, around stars and on planets. Astrochemistry: from Astronomy to Astrobiology provides a clear and concise introduction to this rapidly evolving multidisciplinary subject. Starting with the Molecular Universe,... more...
