Journal ArticleDOI
Galactic stellar and substellar initial mass function
TL;DR: A review of the present-day mass function and initial mass function in various components of the Galaxy (disk, spheroid, young, and globular clusters) and in conditions characteristic of early star formation is presented in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solar System Abundances and Condensation Temperatures of the Elements
TL;DR: In this article, solar photospheric and meteoritic CI chondrite abundance determinations for all elements are summarized and the best currently available photosphere abundances are selected, including the meteoritic and solar abundances of a few elements (e.g., noble gases, beryllium, boron, phosphorous, sulfur).
Journal ArticleDOI
Embedded Clusters in Molecular Clouds
TL;DR: The first extensive catalog of galactic embedded clusters is compiled, finding that the embedded cluster birthrate exceeds that of visible open clusters by an order of magnitude or more indicating a high infant mortality rate for protocluster systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dust Grain-Size Distributions and Extinction in the Milky Way, Large Magellanic Cloud, and Small Magellanic Cloud
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors construct size distributions for carbonaceous and silicate grain populations in different regions of the Milky Way, LMC, and SMC, and adopt a fairly simple functional form for the size distribution, characterized by several parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Theory of Star Formation
TL;DR: In this paper, an overall theoretical framework and the observations that motivate it are outlined, outlining the key dynamical processes involved in star formation, including turbulence, magnetic fields, and self-gravity.

Absorption and Scattering of Light by Small Particles
TL;DR: In this paper, a Potpourri of Particles is used to describe surface modes in small Particles and the Angular Dependence of Scattering is shown to be a function of the size of the particles.
Book
Stellar Structure and Evolution
TL;DR: In this paper, the theory of the internal structure of stars and their evolution in time is introduced and the basic physics of stellar interiors, methods for solving the underlying equations, and the most important results necessary for understanding the wide variety of stellar types and phenomena.

Solar system dynamics
TL;DR: In this paper, the two-body problem and the restricted three body problem are considered. And the disturbing function is extended to include the spin-orbit coupling and the resonance perturbations.
Solar system dynamics
TL;DR: In this paper, the two-body problem and the restricted three body problem are considered. But the disturbing function is defined as a special case of the two body problem and is not considered in this paper.
