Astrochemistry: The Issue of Molecular Complexity in Astrophysical Environments
by M. De Becker
Publisher: arXiv 2013
Number of pages: 62
Description:
Astrochemistry aims at studying chemical processes in astronomical environments. This discipline -- located at the crossroad between astrophysics and chemistry -- is rapidly evolving and explores the issue of the formation of molecules of increasing complexity in particular physical conditions that deviate significantly from those frequently encountered in chemistry laboratories.

Protoplanetary Disks and Their Evolution
by Jonathan P. Williams, Lucas A. Cieza - arXiv
Flattened disks of cool dust and gas are found around almost all low mass stars shortly after their birth. This review addresses observations of the outer parts of protoplanetary disks with a focus on recent infrared and (sub-)millimeter results.
