Gravity Versus Magnetic Fields in Forming Molecular Clouds
Juan C. Ibáñez-Mejía, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low, Ralf S. Klessen
Magnetic fields are dynamically important in the diffuse interstellar medium. Understanding how gravitationally bound, star-forming clouds form requires modeling of the fields in a…
The Catalogue for Astrophysical Turbulence Simulations (CATS)
B. Burkhart, S. Appel, S. Bialy +18
Turbulence is a key process in many fields of astrophysics. Advances in numerical simulations of fluids over the last several decades have revolutionized our understanding of turbu…
Dust charge distribution in the interstellar medium
Juan C. Ibáñez-Mejía, Stefanie Walch, Alexei V. Ivlev +3
We investigate the equilibrium charge distribution of dust grains in the interstellar medium (ISM). Our treatment accounts for collisional charging by electrons and ions, photoelec…
Fast Molecular Cloud Destruction Requires Fast Cloud Formation
Mordecai-Mark Mac Low, Andreas Burkert, Juan C. Ibáñez-Mejía
A large fraction of the gas in the Galaxy is cold, dense, and molecular. If all this gas collapsed under the influence of gravity and formed stars in a local free-fall time, the st…
Feeding vs. Falling: The growth and collapse of molecular clouds in a turbulent interstellar medium
Juan C. Ibáñez-Mejía, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low, Ralf S. Klessen +1
In order to understand the origin of observed molecular cloud properties, it is critical to understand how clouds interact with their environments during their formation, growth, a…
