Astrochemical Modeling

Practical Aspects of Microphysics in Numerical Simulations

About this book

Astrochemical Modelling: Practical Aspects of Microphysics in Numerical Simulations is a comprehensive and detailed guide to dealing with the standard problems that students and researchers face when they need to take into account astrochemistry in their models, including building chemical networks, determining the relevant processes, and understanding the theoretical challenges and the numerical limitations. The book provides chapters covering the theoretical background on the predominant areas of astrochemistry, with each chapter following theoretical background with information on existing databases, step-by-step computational examples with solutions to recurrent problems, and an overview of the different processes and their numerical implementation. Furthermore, a section on case studies provides concrete examples of computational modelling usage for real-world applications and cases where the techniques can be applied is also included. - Provides theoretical background on topics that is followed by computational examples and tailored tutorials to allow for full understanding and replication of techniques - Written by theoreticians and authors with direct experience on the computational implementation to provide a realistic and pragmatic approach to common problems - Details up-to-date information on available databases, tools and benchmarks for practical usage, forming a good starting point for introductory readers and a reference for actual implementation for more advanced researchers
