Starlight in Darkness: The Birth of Stars

arXiv:2106.04580

Abstract

This article will briefly review the theory of star formation (SF) and its development using observations. This is very relevant in the present context since planet formation appears to be a byproduct of SF, and the whole question of life in the universe and its origin can be viewed with a new perspective.
