Description

These conference proceedings present up-to-date information on the development of submillimeter-wave and far-infrared astrophysics. Topics covered range from the large-scale atomic and molecular distribution in the Galaxy and in external galaxies, to the frontal properties of molecular clouds and the details of the star-formation process. A chapter on recent technical advances in the field illustrates the intimate connection and interplay between scientific advancement and technological capability.
