  10. Early Stellar Evolution November/December 2006: Rene´ Liseau and Garrelt Mellema Philippe Thébault Gösta Gahm welcome you to sit in and listen check http://www.astro.su.se/~rene/StarFormation_ht2006/PhD_ht2006.html Logistics - Stellar Evolution I: November-December, 2006

  11. What is known? Check the Literature in general, where do I look first ? Text books: e.g., The Formation of Stars (Stahler & Palla) Reviews: e.g., Proceedings (conferences, IAU Symposia etc.) Protostars and Planets I-V (PP V in 2005) Ann. Rev. Astron. Astrophys. Astron. Astrophys. Rev. Internet: NASA-ADS: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html SO/SU Libraries: http://www.astro.su.se/English/library.html astro-ph: http://www.arxiv.org/archive/astro-ph Logistics - Stellar Evolution I: November-December, 2006

  12. Early Stellar Evolution regarding what the course will contain ADS on October 10, 2006, the Keyword:star formation returned number of hits = 54 711 the course features 7 lectures a 2 x 45 min = 37 800 seconds Clearly, we need to be selective... but like to be as complete as possible... Logistics - Stellar Evolution I: November-December, 2006
