Our knowledge of high-mass star formation at the DAWN OF HERSCHEL |
F. Motte, P. Hennebelle |
We review the theories and observations of high-mass star formation emphasizing the differences with those of low-mass star formation. We hereafter describe the progress expected to be achieved with Herschel, thanks notably to Key Programmes dedicated to the earliest phases of high-mass star formation. |
