Protostellar Turbulence Driven by Collimated Outflows
The majority of stars are thought to form in clusters. Cluster formation in dense clumps of molecular clouds is strongly influenced, perhaps controlled, by supersonic turbulence. We have previously shown that the turbulence in regions of active cluster formation is quickly transformed by the forming stars through protostellar outflows, and that the outflow-driven protostellar turbulence is the ...
متن کاملCluster Formation in Protostellar Outflow-Driven Turbulence
Most, perhaps all, stars go through a phase of vigorous outflow during formation. We examine, through 3D MHD simulation, the effects of protostellar outflows on cluster formation. We find that the initial turbulence in the clusterforming region is quickly replaced by motions generated by outflows. The protostellar outflow-driven turbulence (“protostellar turbulence” for short) can keep the regi...
متن کاملTurbulence in Class 0 and Class I protostellar envelopes
We estimate the levels of turbulence in the envelopes of Class 0 and I protostars using a model based on measurements of the peak separation of double-peaked asymmetric line profiles. We use observations of 20 protostars of both Class 0 & I taken in the HCO(J=3→2) line that show the classic double-peaked profile. We find that some Class 0 sources show high levels of turbulence whilst others dem...
متن کاملOutflow Driven Cavities: Numerical Simulations of Intermediaries of Protostellar Turbulence
We investigate the evolution of fossil cavities produced by extinct YSO jets and wide angle outflows. Fossil cavities are ellipsoidal or cylindrical shells of swept-up of ambient (molecular cloud) material moving at low velocities. The cavities form when the momentum in a YSO jet or wide angle outflow decays in time allowing the bowshock or swept-up shell to decelerate to velocities near the tu...
متن کاملProtostellar Jets and Turbulence in Molecular Clouds: The Role of Interactions
We present a series of numerical studies of the interaction of colliding radiative, hydrodynamic young stellar outflows. We study the effect of the collision impact parameter on the acceleration of ambient material and the degree to which the flow is isotropized by the collision as a mechanism for driving turbulence in the parent molecular cloud. Our results indicate that the high degrees of co...
