The determination of stellar ages is crucial for the development of our understanding of the universe and for constraining theoretical models of galaxy formation and planetary system evolution. The ages of stars provide scientists with timescales to identify the relevant physical processes responsible for the development of the cosmic structures.\nAge-Dating Stars describes in a simple, yet rigorous manner, the vast array of techniques used to determine stellar ages. It also explores how these ages inform our knowledge about planets, star clusters, galaxies and even distant galaxies that we cannot resolve into individual stars. Up-to-date with the latest research and technologies in the field, it discusses open problems that remain to be pondered in future research.
