February 22-26 and March 1-5, 2021 | ONLINE EDITION
The aim of the school is to introduce the students to a number of
current topics in astrochemistry. In this edition the
first
week is on the theoretical aspects, while the
second on tutorials and exercises. This will
allow the students to explore both theoretically and in practice some of the aspects of the physical
processes in the interstellar medium, such as non-equilibrium gas
chemistry, dust physics, thermal processes, and photochemistry. In
addition we will introduce to the use of the astrochemistry
package KROME.
