Anywhere in the Universe, gas that is sufficiently dense will form a range of molecules. Emissions from these molecules - often in the radio régime - excited by collisions can be detected in many locations in our Galaxy and in external galaxies, including some of the most distant objects in the Universe. Astronomers use the information contained in the detected radiation to infer the conditions in the emitting region, and so are able to investigate the processesoccurring in, for example, star forming regions, circumstellar matter, active galactic nuclei, and the early Universe.

The Molecular Astrophysics of Stars and Galaxies

Molecular line emissions offer researchers exciting opportunities to learn about the evolutionary state of the Milky Way and distant galaxies. This text provides a detailed introduction to molecular astrophysics and an array of useful techniques for observing astronomical phenomena at millimetre and submillimetre wavelengths. After discussing the theoretical underpinnings of molecular observation, the authors catalogue suitable molecular tracers for many types of astronomical regions in local and distant parts of the Universe, including cold gas reservoirs primed for the formation of new stars, regions of active star formation, giant photon-dominated regions and near active galactic nuclei. Further chapters demonstrate how to obtain useful astronomical information from raw telescope data while providing recommendations for appropriate observing strategies. Replete with maps, charts and references for further reading, this handbook will suit research astronomers and graduate students interested in broadening their skill to take advantage of the new facilities now coming online.
