Characterizing the properties of cluster precursors in the MALT90 survey
Yanett Contreras, Jill M. Rathborne, Andres Guzman +4
In the Milky Way there are thousands of stellar clusters each harboring from a hundred to a million stars. Although clusters are common, the initial conditions of cluster formation…
The link between turbulence, magnetic fields, filaments, and star formation in the Central Molecular Zone cloud G0.253+0.016
C. Federrath, J. M. Rathborne, S. N. Longmore +8
Star formation is primarily controlled by the interplay between gravity, turbulence, and magnetic fields. However, the turbulence and magnetic fields in molecular clouds near the G…
Linking Dense Gas from the Milky Way to External Galaxies
Ian W. Stephens, James M. Jackson, J. Scott Whitaker +5
In a survey of 65 galaxies, Gao & Solomon (2004) found a tight linear relation between the infrared luminosity (, a proxy for the star formation rate) and the HCN(1-0)…
Molecular gas kinematics within the central 250 pc of the Milky Way
J. D. Henshaw, S. N. Longmore, J. M. D. Kruijssen +23
Using spectral-line observations of HNCO, N2H+, and HNC, we investigate the kinematics of dense gas in the central ~250 pc of the Galaxy. We present SCOUSE (Semi-automated multi-CO…
Comparing Young Massive Clusters and their Progenitor Clouds in the Milky Way
D. L. Walker, S. N. Longmore, N. Bastian +4
Young massive clusters (YMCs) have central stellar mass surface densities exceeding . It is currently unknown whether the stars formed at such high (proto…
Using young massive star clusters to understand star formation and feedback in high-redshift-like environments
Steven Longmore, Ashley Barnes, Cara Battersby +9
The formation environment of stars in massive stellar clusters is similar to the environment of stars forming in galaxies at a redshift of 1 - 3, at the peak star formation rate de…
