Abstract: Hypersonic Meteoroid Entry Physics gives a fascinating overview of the different aspects related to meteoroid atmospheric entry. The book covers meteoroid observations in outer space, the description of the chemical-physical phenomena during atmospheric entry, recovery of the meteor on the Earth's surface, and meteorite chemical analysis. The book, based on the lectures given during the HyMEP course held in Erice in 2017, is addressed to students and researchers with an interest in plasma chemistry, astrophysics and aerospace engineering. It gives a comprehensive overview of the present status of the investigation on meteoroid entry physics while merging the knowledge of astrophysicists and the aerospace engineering communities. Part of IOP Series in Plasma Physics.

Gianpiero Colonna is Senior Researcher at the National Research Council (CNR), Italy. His research activities are focused on plasma modeling, state-to-state kinetics, thermodynamic and transport properties of plasmas, and modelling plasma plume produced by ns laser pulses. He co-edited the book Plasma Modeling: methods and applications in the IOP series on Plasma Physics. Mario Capitelli is Full Professor of Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Bari, Italy. His research is prominent in different fields including, dynamics of elementary processes, plasma physics and chemistry, laser-plasma interaction and aerothermodynamics. Professor Capitelli has contributed to over 500 publications and he authored and edited a selection of plasma-related books. He received the Laurea Honoris Causa of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow 2013, and the title of Docteur Honoris Causa of the Université Paris 13, Paris 2015. Annarita Laricchiuta is Researcher at the National Research Council (CNR), Italy. Her research areas focus on the theoretical calculation of dynamical data for elementary processes in plasmas among other fields of plasma research. These three editors co-directed the HyMEP Course in Erice in 2017.
