A molecular journey : tales of sublimating ices from hot cores to comets

Bogelund, E.G. (2019)

Doctoral Thesis

The thesis explores how interstellar chemistry evolves as a function of time and changing physical architectures during the formation of stars. The motivation behind the work is an aspiration to better understand how the Solar System came to be, which processes led to its chemical composition and ultimately, what enabled life to evolve on Earth.
