The Cloud Factory I: Generating resolved filamentary molecular clouds from galactic-scale forces
Rowan J. Smith, Robin G. Treß, Mattia C. Sormani +6
We introduce a new suite of simulations, "The Cloud Factory", which self-consistently forms molecular cloud complexes at high enough resolution to resolve internal substructure (up…
Simulations of the star-forming molecular gas in an interacting M51-like galaxy
Robin G. Tress, Rowan J. Smith, Mattia C. Sormani +4
We present here the first of a series of papers aimed at better understanding the evolution and properties of giant molecular clouds (GMCs) in a galactic context. We perform high r…
The geometry of the gas surrounding the Central Molecular Zone: on the origin of localised molecular clouds with extreme velocity dispersions
Mattia C. Sormani, Robin G. Tress, Simon C. O. Glover +6
Observations of molecular gas near the Galactic centre (, ) reveal the presence of a distinct population of enigmatic compact clouds which are ch…
