We propose an extensive investigation of the impact of stellar highenergyradiation on the planet forming molecular stellar environments by combiningXray information with novel farinfrared spectroscopy from our Herschel KeyProject and complementary midinfrared spectroscopy from Spitzer. The principalgoals are, i) to identify Xray tracers in the Herschel spectral range, ii) tostudy the potential impact of Xrays on circumstellar material based oncorrelation studies, and iii) to model physical and chemical conditions in theregions where the Xray impact is significant. We wish to understand how X rayradiation influences star and planet formation through physical and chemicalprocessing of circumstellar material. The astrobiologically important water plays a key role in this project. truncated!, Please see actual data for full text [truncated!, Please see actual data for full text]
