Program of the school
The Sardinian Summer School in Astrophysics "Astrochemistry: the astronomer's survival kit" will focus on astrochemistry tools and techniques, using as a sample their applications to specific astronomical environments, from interstellar clouds to star forming regions to protoplanetary disks.Lectures and hands-on activities in support to lectures are planned during the school.
A detailed program with the list of invited speakers will appear in this page as soon as possible.
