This note covers
the following topics: radioastronomy, Interstellar medium and chemistry,
Molecular astrophysics, Star formation, Interferometry, Pre-stellar cores, Hot
cores or corinos, Dust in disks, Evolved stars, Cosmic rays chemistry, Gas in
disks, Cosmic rays chemistry, Comets and Planet formation.
This educational note coming out of MIT is a resource
that gives an in-depth overview on astrochemistry, focusing primarily on the
topic of spectral lines and their significance in understanding cosmic entities.
The topics included are as follows: Radio Telescope Mechanics
Emission/Absorption of Spectral Lines Detection of Stars Detection of Planets
Detection of Galaxies. This paper will try to help students acquire more
significant knowledge in space science: the processes of chemistry and the
principles upon which astronomy observations are based.
This is a lecture note by Prof. Jesse Kroll, focusing on chemical
transformations in trace species of Earth's atmosphere. The note highlighted how
human activity impacts both air quality and climate-from covering major concepts
such as photochemistry and ozone-depleting compounds to aerosol chemistry. The
note provides a comprehensive summary of what drives atmospheric chemistry, from
sources and sinks of greenhouse gases to names and processes. The paper is
designed for better understanding of the atmospheric processes concerning
anthropogenic influences and their implication in environmental science.
