ISO spectroscopy: the study of low-mass star formation

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento C

Summary

The current observational scenario pertaining to the study of low-mass star formation is discussed together with the evolutionary sequence that such a scenario seems to suggest. The opportunities offered by the spectrometers on board of the ISO satellite for improving our understanding of the involved physical processes are then discussed.
