The JCMT Gould Belt Survey: Evidence for radiative heating in Serpens MWC 297 and its influence on local star formation

D. Rumble, J. Hatchell, R. A. Gutermuth +61

We present SCUBA-2 450micron and 850micron observations of the Serpens MWC 297 region, part of the JCMT Gould Belt Survey of nearby star-forming regions. Simulations suggest that r…

HST-Scale 3D simulations of MHD disc winds : A rotating two-component jet structure

Jan Staff, Nico Koning, Rachid Ouyed +2

We present the results of large scale, three-dimensional magneto-hydrodynamics simulations of disc-winds for different initial magnetic field configurations. The jets are followed…

The state of globular clusters at birth II: primordial binaries

Nathan W. C. Leigh, Mirek Giersz, Michael Marks +5

(abridged) In this paper, we constrain the properties of primordial binary populations in Galactic globular clusters using the MOCCA Monte Carlo code for cluster evolution. Our res…

The Blue Straggler Star Population in NGC 1261: Evidence for a Post-Core-Collapse Bounce State

Mirko Simunovic, Thomas H. Puzia, Alison Sills

We present a multi-passband photometric study of the Blue Straggler Star (BSS) population in the Galactic globular cluster (GC) NGC\,1261, using available space- and ground-based s…

Magnetic Reconnection in Astrophysical Environments

A Lazarian, G. Eyink, E. Vishniac +1

Magnetic reconnection is a process that changes magnetic field topology in highly conducting fluids. Traditionally, magnetic reconnection was associated mostly with solar flares. I…
