Detection of a septuple stellar system in formation via disk fragmentation
Shanghuo Li, Henrik Beuther, André Oliva +15
Stellar multiple systems play a pivotal role in cluster dynamics and stellar evolution, leading to intense astronomical phenomena like X-ray binaries, gamma-ray bursts, Type Ia sup…
Star Formation
Rajika Kuruwita, Łukasz Tychoniec, Christoph Federrath
In this chapter, we will cover how stars form from the stellar nurseries that are giant molecular clouds. We will first review the physical processes that compete to regulate star…
Orbital Architectures of Planet-Hosting Binaries III. Testing Mutual Inclinations of Stellar and Planetary Orbits in Triple-Star Systems
Elise L. Evans, Trent J. Dupuy, Kendall Sullivan +7
Transiting planets in multiple-star systems, especially high-order multiples, make up a small fraction of the known planet population but provide unique opportunities to study the…
The dependence of episodic accretion on eccentricity during the formation of binary stars
R. Kuruwita, C. Federrath, T. Haugbølle
Aims: Our goal is to investigate how the strength of episodic accretion bursts depends on eccentricity. Methods: We investigate the binary trigger hypothesis in longer-period (>20y…
The role of initial magnetic field structure in the launching of protostellar jets
Isabella A. Gerrard, Christoph Federrath, Rajika Kuruwita
Magnetic fields are known to play a crucial role in the star formation process, particularly in the formation of jets and outflows from protostellar discs. The magnetic field struc…
The role of turbulence during the formation of circumbinary discs
Rajika L. Kuruwita, Christoph Federrath
Most stars form in binaries and the evolution of their discs remains poorly understood. To shed light on this subject, we carry out 3D ideal MHD simulations with the AMR code FLASH…
