A universal route for the formation of massive star clusters in giant molecular clouds

Corey S. Howard, Ralph E. Pudritz, William E. Harris

Young massive star clusters (YMCs, with M 10 M) are proposed modern-day analogues of the globular clusters (GCs) that were products of extreme star formation in…

On the Origin of Multiple Populations During Massive Star Cluster Formation

Corey S. Howard, Ralph E. Pudritz, Alison Sills +1

We investigate the possibility that multiple populations in globular clusters arise as a natural by-product of massive star-cluster formation. We use 3D radiative hydrodynamics sim…

Simulating the UV Escape Fractions from Molecular Cloud Populations in Star-forming Dwarf and Spiral Galaxies

Corey S. Howard, Ralph E. Pudritz, Bill E. Harris +1

The escape of ultraviolet photons from the densest regions of the interstellar medium (ISM) --- Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs) --- is a poorly constrained parameter which is vital t…

Simulating radiative feedback and star cluster formation in GMCs: II. Mass dependence of cloud destruction and cluster properties

Corey Howard, Ralph Pudritz, William Harris

The process of radiative feedback in Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs) is an important mechanism for limiting star cluster formation through the heating and ionization of the surroundi…

Ultra Violet Escape Fractions from Giant Molecular Clouds During Early Cluster Formation

Corey S. Howard, Ralph E. Pudritz, Ralf S. Klessen

The UV photon escape fraction from molecular clouds is a key parameter for understanding the ionization of the Interstellar Medium (ISM), and extragalactic processes, such as cosmi…

Simulating radiative feedback and star cluster formation in GMCs: I. Dependence on gravitational boundedness

Corey Howard, Ralph Pudritz, William Harris

Radiative feedback is an important consequence of cluster formation in Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs) in which newly formed clusters heat and ionize their surrounding gas. The proce…

Cluster formation in molecular clouds: I. stellar populations, star formation rates, and ionizing radiation

Corey S. Howard, Ralph E. Pudritz, William E. Harris

We present a model for the radiative output of star clusters in the process of star formation suitable for use in hydrodynamical simulations of radiative feedback. Gas in a clump,…
