An insightful discussion of the basic physics underlying interstellar cloud formation and evolution, going beyond traditional but incomplete or unrealistic applications and emphasizing the continuum nature of the interstellar medium, followed by a unified account of the life cycle of interstellar clouds and their star-forming activity.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The first part of this book reviews the basic theoretical knowledge necessary to understand the flow of interstellar gas that leads to the formation of stars, including ample discussion of the physical implications, the limitations of standard assumptions, and the necessary extensions for more realistic descriptions. The second part presents a self-consistent view of the process of cloud formation and evolution that leads to the formation of stars, starting from the mechanisms responsible for the formation of clouds in the diffuse interstellar medium, passing through their growth, the onset of gravitational contraction, the onset of star formation, and culminating on the dispersal of the star-forming regions and the properties of the star clusters formed by this process. Throughout the book, special emphasis is made on the fluid nature of the interstellar medium. Artikel-Nr. 9780750312912
