What determines the density structure of molecular clouds ? A case study of Orion B with Herschel
N. Schneider, Ph. Andre, V. Konyves +19
A key parameter to the description of all star formation processes is the density structure of the gas. In this letter, we make use of probability distribution functions (PDFs) of…
Giant Magnetized Outflows from the Centre of the Milky Way
E. Carretti, R. M. Crocker, L. Staveley-Smith +6
The nucleus of the Milky Way is known to harbour regions of intense star formation activity as well as a super-massive black hole. Recent Fermi space telescope observations have re…
Supergiant Shells and Molecular Cloud Formation in the LMC
J. R. Dawson, N. M. McClure-Griffiths, T. Wong +4
We investigate the influence of large-scale stellar feedback on the formation of molecular clouds in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Examining the relationship between HI and 12C…
Identifying Contributions to the Stellar Halo from Accreted, Kicked-Out, and In Situ Populations
Allyson A. Sheffield, Steven R. Majewski, Kathryn V. Johnston +10
[Abridged] We present a medium-resolution spectroscopic survey of late-type giant stars at mid-Galactic latitudes of (30), designed to probe the properties…
The Luminosity Functions and Timescales of MYSOs and Compact HII regions
Joseph C. Mottram, Melvin G. Hoare, Ben Davies +6
We present a determination of the luminosity functions of massive young stellar objects (MYSOs) and compact (C)HII regions within the Milky Way Galaxy using the large, well-selecte…
The Local Group: Inventory and History
Eline Tolstoy
My presentation was an overview of what we know about the Local Group of galaxies, primarily from optical imaging and spectroscopy. AGB stars are on the whole a very sparse and unr…
