A New Model for Filamentary Molecular Clouds
We develop a theory for filamentary molecular clouds including the effects of ordered magnetic fields, and external pressure. We first derive a new virial equation appropriate for filamentary clouds. By comparing with observational results collected from the literature, we find that the fields are likely helical. Secondly, we construct numerical, MHD models of filamentary clouds that agree with...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
Polarization models of filamentary molecular clouds
We study numerically the linear polarization and extinction of light from background stars in three types of models of elongated molecular clouds by following the development of the Stokes parameters. The clouds are assumed to be of cylindrical shape and penetrated by a helical magnetic field B. In the first two models we study only the relative magnitude of the polarization assuming that the p...
متن کاملHelical Fields and Filamentary Molecular Clouds
We study the equilibrium of pressure truncated, filamentary molecular clouds that are threaded by rather general helical magnetic fields. We first derive a new virial equation appropriate for magnetized filamentary clouds, which includes the effects of non-thermal motions and the turbulent pressure of the surrounding ISM. When compared with the data, we find that many filamentary clouds have a ...
متن کاملProlate Cores in Filamentary Molecular Clouds
We present a new model of molecular cloud cores that originate from filamentary clouds that are threaded by helical magnetic fields. Only modest toroidal fields are required to produce elongated cores, with intrinsic axis ratios in the range 0.1 < ∼ q < ∼ 0.9 and mean projected axis ratios in the range 0.3 < ∼ 〈p〉 < ∼ 1. Thus many of our models are in good agreement with the observed shapes of ...
