Summary:"From Dust to Stars introduces the world of dense cloud cores, stellar nurseries, the lives of young stellar objects, and their interaction with the interstellar medium as it is known today. The book describes the complex physical processes involved in both the creation of stars and during their young lives. It illustrates how these processes reveal themselves from radio wavelengths to high energy X-rays, with special reference towards high energy signatures. A discussion of key analytical techniques demonstrates how modern research in this area is pursued."--Jacket.
