Meteorites, Comets, and Planets: Treatise on Geochemistry, Vol 1 by A.M. Davis Elsevier Science | February 6, 2006 | ISBN: 0080447201 | 756 pages | PDF | 19 MB


Volume 1 provides a broad overview of the chemistry of the solar system. It includes chapters on the origin of the elements and solar system abundances, the solar nebula and planet formation, meteorite classification, the major types of meteorites, important processes in early solar system history, geochemistry of the terrestrial planets, the giant planets and their satellite, comets, and the formation and early differentiation of the Earth. This volume is intended to be the first reference work one would consult to learn about the chemistry of the solar system.

"Recommended to researchers and students for a concise up-to-date overview of the field."
