High-resolution Imaging of Dense Gas Structure and Kinematics in Nearby Molecular Clouds with the Carma Large Area Star Formation Survey
Title of Dissertation: HIGH-RESOLUTION IMAGING OF DENSE GAS STRUCTURE AND KINEMATICS IN NEARBY MOLECULAR CLOUDS WITH THE CARMA LARGE AREA STAR FORMATION SURVEY Shaye Storm, Doctor of Philosophy, 2015 Dissertation directed by: Professor Lee Mundy Department of Astronomy This thesis utilizes new observations of dense gas in molecular clouds to develop an empirical framework for how clouds form st...
متن کاملUnderstanding Star Formation at Early Stages in the Filamentary Era by I-jen Lee Dissertation
This thesis presents a study of star formation at early stages in the filamentary era with a special focus on massive star and cluster formation. We first investigate the importance of filamentary structures in star formation and propose an observationally driven scenario for the evolution of filamentary structures from large-scale molecular clouds to small-scale circumstellar envelopes. In add...
متن کاملIonized gas kinematics and massive star formation in NGC 1530
We present emission line mapping of the strongly barred galaxy NGC 1530 obtained using Fabry-Pérot interferometry in Hα, at significantly enhanced angular resolution compared with previously published studies. The main point of the work is to examine in detail the non-circular components of the velocity field of the gas, presumably induced by the strongly non-axisymmetric gravitational potentia...
متن کاملSlow Star Formation in Dense Gas: Evidence and Implications
It has been known for more than 30 years that star formation in giant molecular clouds (GMCs) is slow, in the sense that only ∼ 1% of the gas forms stars every free-fall time. This result is entirely independent of any particular model of molecular cloud lifetime or evolution. Here we survey observational data on higher density objects in the interstellar medium, including infrared dark clouds ...
متن کاملThe Star Formation Rate and Dense Molecular Gas in Galaxies
HCN luminosity is a tracer of dense molecular gas, n(H2) > ∼3 × 10 cm, associated with star-forming giant molecular cloud (GMC) cores. We present the results and analysis of our survey of HCN emission from 65 infrared galaxies including 9 ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIGs, LIR > ∼10 L⊙), 22 luminous infrared galaxies (LIGs, 10 L⊙ < LIR < ∼10 L⊙) and 34 normal spiral galaxies with lower IR ...
