Comets to cosmology : proceedings of the Third IRAS Conference held at Queen Mary College, University of London July 6 10, 1987

These proceedings are concerned with discoveries from the Infra-Red Astronomical Satellite IRAS including follow-up projects in theoretical and observational astronomy. In particular, they stress the solar system results from IRAS. A huge range of astronomical topics is addressed including asteroids...
