Chemistry in Protoplanetary Disks
by Thomas Henning, Dmitry Semenov
Publisher: arXiv 2013
Number of pages: 84
Description:
This comprehensive review summarizes our current understanding of the evolution of gas, solids and molecular ices in protoplanetary disks. Key findings related to disk physics and chemistry, both observationally and theoretically, are highlighted. We discuss which molecular probes are used to derive gas temperature, density, ionization state, kinematics, deuterium fractionation, and study organic matter in protoplanetary disks.

An Introduction to Galactic Chemical Evolution
by Nikos Prantzos - arXiv
The formalism of the simple model of galactic chemical evolution (GCE) and its main ingredients are presented. It is stressed that GCE is not an astrophysical theory, but it provides a framework in which the large body of data may be interpreted.

Protoplanetary Disks and Their Evolution
by Jonathan P. Williams, Lucas A. Cieza - arXiv
Flattened disks of cool dust and gas are found around almost all low mass stars shortly after their birth. This review addresses observations of the outer parts of protoplanetary disks with a focus on recent infrared and (sub-)millimeter results.
