Three-Dimensional Moving-Mesh Simulations of Galactic Center Cloud G2
Peter Anninos, P. Chris Fragile, Julia Wilson +1
Using three-dimensional, moving-mesh simulations, we investigate the future evolution of the recently discovered gas cloud G2 traveling through the galactic center. We consider the…
The Supernova Triggered Formation and Enrichment of Our Solar System
M. Gritschneder, D. N. C. Lin, S. D. Murray +2
We investigate the enrichment of the pre-solar cloud core with short lived radionuclides (SLRs), especially 26Al. The homogeneity and the surprisingly small spread in the ratio 26A…
Gas Accretion by Globular Clusters and Nucleated Dwarf Galaxies and the Formation of the Arches and Quintuplet Clusters
Douglas N. C. Lin, Stephen D. Murray
We consider here the collective accretion of gas by globular clusters and dwarf galaxies moving through the interstellar medium. In the limit of high velocity and/or sound speed of…
Energy Dissipation in Multi-Phase Infalling Clouds in Galaxy Halos
Stephen D. Murray, Douglas N. C. Lin
During the formation of large galaxies, thermal instability leads to the formation of a population of cool fragments embedded within a background of tenuous hot gas. The hot gas at…
Jet-Induced Star Formation: Good News From Big Bad Black Holes
Wil van Breugel, Chris Fragile, Stephen Croft +3
We discuss obbservations and numerical simulations which show that radiative shocks in jet-cloud collisions can trigger the collapse of intergalactic clouds and subsequent star for…
Jet-Induced Star Formation
Wil van Breugel, Chris Fragile, Peter Anninos +1
Jets from radio galaxies can have dramatic effects on the medium through which they propagate. We review observational evidence for jet-induced star formation in low ('FR-I') and h…
