Triggered Star Formation by Massive Stars
We present our diagnosis of the role that massive stars play in the formation of lowand intermediate-mass stars in OB associations (the λ Ori region, the OriOB1, and LacOB1 associations). We find that the classical T Tauri stars and Herbig Ae/Be stars tend to line up between luminous O stars and brightrimmed or comet-shaped clouds; the closer to a cloud the progressively younger they are. Our p...
متن کاملGalaxy Collisions and Star Formation
We present a brief overview of some recent observations of colliding galaxies and relevant numerical simulations. These are compared, and details of the locations and history of collision induced star formation are explored, with possible application to star formation at earlier epochs.
متن کاملLow-Mass Star Formation, Triggered by Supernova in Primordial Clouds
The evolution of a gas shell, swept by the supernova remnant of a massive first generation star, is studied with H2 and HD chemistry taken into account and with use of a semi-analytical approximation to the dynamics. When a first-generation star, formed in a parent pregalactic cloud, explodes as a supernova with explosion energy in the range of 10erg− 10 erg at redshifts of z = 10− 50, H2 and H...
متن کاملEnvironmental Dependencies for Star Formation Triggered by Expanding Shell Collapse
Criteria for gravitational collapse of expanding shells in rotating, shearing galaxy disks were determined using three-dimensional numerical simulations in the thin shell approximation. The simulations were run over a grid of 7 independent variables, and the resultant probabilities for triggering and unstable masses were determined as functions of 8 dimensionless parameters. When the ratio of t...
متن کاملStar Formation Triggered by Snr Impact into Magnetized Neutral Clouds
Present day star formation (SF) takes place in giant molecular clouds (GMCs). These contain a wealth of structures on all length-scales with highly supersonic motions and it is believed that these supersonic motions induce the observed density inhomogeneities in the gas that drive star formation. Suggested candidates for driving supersonic motions and SF include supernova shocks. Considering th...
