Star Formation from Turbulent Fragmentation
Star formation is intimately linked to the dynamical evolution of molecular clouds. Turbulent fragmentation determines where and when protostellar cores form, and how they contract and grow in mass via accretion from the surrounding cloud material. Efficiency, spatial distribution and timescale of star formation in turbulent clouds are estimated by comparing numerical models of self-gravitating...
متن کاملFragmentation in massive star formation.
Studies of evolved massive stars indicate that they form in a clustered mode. During the earliest evolutionary stages, these regions are embedded within their natal cores. Here we present high-spatial-resolution interferometric dust continuum observations disentangling the cluster-like structure of a young massive star-forming region. The derived protocluster mass distribution is consistent wit...
متن کاملStar Formation in Ring Galaxies
Ring galaxies are specific types of interacting galaxies in which a smaller galaxy has passed through the center of the disk of another larger galaxy. The intrusion of the smaller galaxy causes the structure of the larger galaxy to compress as the smaller galaxy falls through, and to recoil back after the smaller galaxy passes through, hence the ring-like shape. In our research, we studied the ...
متن کاملFragmentation and Star Formation in Turbulent Cores
We examine the conditions under which binary and multiple stars may form out of turbulent molecular cloud cores using high resolution 3-D, adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) hydrodynamics (Truelove et al., 1997, 1998; Klein, 1999). We argue that previous conclusions on the conditions for cloud fragmentation have limited applicability, since they did not allow for the nonlinear density and velocity ...
متن کاملBinary and Multiple Star Formation in Magnetic Clouds: Bar Growth and Fragmentation
In the standard scenario of isolated low-mass star formation, strongly magnetized molecular clouds are envisioned to condense gradually into dense cores, driven by ambipolar diffusion. Once the cores become magnetically supercritical, they collapse to form stars. Previous studies based on this scenario are limited to axisymmetric calculations leading to single supercritical core formation. The ...
