Chemical Evolution of Circumstellar Matter around Young Stellar Objects

An error occurred while generating the citation.

Abstract

Recent observational studies of the chemical composition of circumstellar matter around both high- and low-mass young stellar objects are reviewed. The molecular abundances are found to be a strong function of evolutionary state, but not of system mass or luminosity. The data are discussed with reference to recent theoretical models.
