Effects of Varying the Three-Body Molecular Hydrogen Formation Rate in Primordial Star Formation
The transformation of atomic hydrogen to molecular hydrogen through threebody reactions is a crucial stage in the collapse of primordial, metal-free halos, where the first generation of stars (Population III stars) in the Universe are formed. However, in the published literature, the rate coefficient for this reaction is uncertain by nearly an order of magnitude. We report on the results of bot...
متن کاملOptical Star-Formation Rate Indicators
Using integrated optical spectrophotometry for 412 star-forming galaxies at z ∼ 0, and fiber-aperture spectrophotometry for 120, 846 SDSS galaxies at z ∼ 0.1, we investigate the Hα λ6563, Hβ λ4861, [O ii] λ3727, and [O iii] λ5007 nebular emission lines and the U -band luminosity as quantitative star-formation rate (SFR) indicators. We demonstrate that the extinction-corrected Hα λ6563 luminosit...
متن کاملDynamical Constraints on Massive Star Formation
Extragalactic HII regions and their ionizing star clusters are the most prominent signposts of recent starbirth activity in galaxies. In this paper, we present optical measurements of nearby extragalactic HII regions with the aim of investigating possible relationships between the newborn ionizing clusters and their dynamical environment. Evidence for variations in the measured HII region prope...
متن کاملCritical Accretion Rate for Triggered Star Formation
We have reexamined the similarity solution for a self-gravitating isothermal gas sphere and examined implication to star formation in a turbulent cloud. When parameters are adequately chosen, the similarity solution expresses an accreting isothermal gas sphere bounded by a spherical shock wave. The mass and radius of the sphere increases in proportion to the time, while the central density decr...
متن کاملStar Formation Rate from Dust Infrared Emission
We examine what types of galaxies the conversion formula from dust infrared (IR) luminosity into the star formation rate (SFR) derived by Kennicutt (1998) is applicable to. The ratio of the observed IR luminosity, LIR, to the intrinsic bolometric luminosity of the newly (. 10 Myr) formed stars, LSF, of a galaxy can be determined by a mean dust opacity in the interstellar medium and the activity...
