Cloud Dispersal in Turbulent Flows

F. Heitsch, A. D. Slyz, J. E. G. Devriendt +1

Cold clouds embedded in warm media are very common objects in astrophysics. Their disruption timescale depends strongly on the dynamical configuration. We discuss the evolution of…

A comparative study of disc-planet interaction

M. de Val-Borro, R. G. Edgar, P. Artymowicz +20

We perform numerical simulations of a disc-planet system using various grid-based and smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) codes. The tests are run for a simple setup where Jupite…

The Birth of Molecular Clouds: Formation of Atomic Precursors in Colliding Flows

F. Heitsch, A. D. Slyz, J. E. G. Devriendt +2

Molecular Cloud Complexes (MCCs) are highly structured and ``turbulent''. Observational evidence suggests that MCCs are dynamically dominated systems, rather than quasi-equilibrium…

The Turbulent Interstellar Medium

Andreas Burkert

An overview is presented of the main properties of the interstellar medium. Evidence is summarized that the interstellar medium is highly turbulent, driven on different length scal…

Supernova 2006aj and the associated X-Ray Flash 060218

J. Sollerman, A. O. Jaunsen, J. P. U. Fynbo +23

We have studied the afterglow of the gamma-ray burst (GRB) of February 18, 2006. This is a nearby long GRB, with a very low peak energy, and is therefore classified as an X-ray Fla…

How galaxies lose their angular momentum

E. D'Onghia, A. Burkert, G. Murante +1

The processes are investigated by which gas loses its angular momentum during the protogalactic collapse phase, leading to disk galaxies that are too compact with respect to the ob…
