Deconstructing the High-Mass Star-Forming Region IRAS 23033+5951
Michael A. Reid, Brenda C. Matthews
We report interferometric observations of the high-mass star-forming object IRAS 23033+5951. Our observations reveal two massive molecular cloud cores, designated IRAS 23033+5951-M…
High Mass Star Formation. III. The Functional Form of the Submillimeter Clump Mass Function
Michael A. Reid, Christine D. Wilson
We investigate the mass function of cold, dusty clumps in 11 low- and high-mass star-forming regions. Using a homogeneous fitting technique, we analyze the shape of each region's c…
High Mass Star Formation. II. The Mass Function of Submillimeter Clumps in M17
M. A. Reid, C. D. Wilson
We have mapped an approximately 5.5 by 5.5 pc portion of the M17 massive star-forming region in both 850 and 450 micron dust continuum emission using the Submillimeter Common-User…
High Mass Star Formation I: The Mass Distribution of Submillimeter Clumps in NGC 7538
M. A. Reid, C. D. Wilson
We present submillimeter continuum maps at 450 and 850 microns of a 12 x 8 arcminute region of the NGC 7538 high-mass star-forming region, made using the Submillimeter Common-User…
Star Formation: 3D Collapse of Turbulent Cloud Cores
M. A. Reid, R. E. Pudritz, J. Wadsley
We have performed fully 3D simulations of the collapse of molecular cloud cores which obey the logatropic equation of state. By following the collapse of these cores from states of…
3-D Simulations of the Gravitational Collapse of Logatropic Molecular Cloud Cores
M. A. Reid, R. E. Pudritz, J. Wadsley
We present the results of fully 3-D hydrodynamic simulations of the gravitational collapse of isolated, turbulent molecular cloud cores. Starting from initial states of hydrostatic…
