Simulations of the non-linear thin shell instability
A. D. McLeod, A. P. Whitworth
We use three-dimensional smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations to study the non-linear thin shell instability (NTSI) in supersonic colliding flows. We show that for flows wit…
Can habitable planets form in clustered environments?
M. de Juan Ovelar, J. M. D. Kruijssen, E. Bressert +3
We present observational evidence of environmental effects on the formation and evolution of planetary systems. We combine catalogues of resolved protoplanetary discs (PPDs) and yo…
Radiation hydrodynamics simulations of massive star formation using Monte Carlo radiation transfer
Tim J. Harries, Tom J. Haworth, David Acreman
We present a radiation hydrodynamics simulation of the formation of a massive star using a Monte Carlo treatment for the radiation field. We find that strong, high speed bipolar ca…
MYStIX First Results: Spatial Structures of Massive Young Stellar Clusters
Michael A. Kuhn, Adrian Baddeley, Eric D. Feigelson +8
Observations of the spatial distributions of young stars in star-forming regions can be linked to the theory of clustered star formation using spatial statistical methods. The MYSt…
The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey III: A very massive star in apparent isolation from the massive cluster R136
Joachim M. Bestenlehner, Jorick S. Vink, G. Gräfener +17
VFTS 682 is located in an active star-forming region, at a projected distance of 29 pc from the young massive cluster R136 in the Tarantula Nebula of the Large Magellanic Cloud. It…
New Methods for Determining the Ages of PMS Stars
Tim Naylor, N. J. Mayne, R. D. Jeffries +2
We present three new methods for determining the age of groups of pre-main-sequence stars. The first, creating empirical isochrones allows us to create a robust age ordering, but n…
