The Spatial Power Spectrum and Derived Turbulent Properties of Isolated Galaxies

Bastian Körtgen, Nickolas Pingel, Nicholas Killerby-Smith

The turbulent dynamics of nearby and extragalactic gas structures can be studied with the column density power spectrum, which is often described by a broken power-law.In an extrag…

Deuterium Chemodynamics of Massive Pre-Stellar Cores

Chia-Jung Hsu, Jonathan C. Tan, Matthew D. Goodson +3

High levels of deuterium fractionation of (i.e., ) are often observed in pre-stellar cores (PSCs) and detection of is a…

The turbulence driving parameter of molecular clouds in disc galaxies

Bastian Körtgen

Supersonic turbulence plays a pivotal role during the formation of molecular clouds and stars in galaxies. However, little is known about how the fraction of compressive and soleno…

Molecular cloud formation by compression of magnetized turbulent gas subjected to radiative cooling

Ankush Mandal, Christoph Federrath, Bastian Körtgen

Complex turbulent motions of magnetized gas are ubiquitous in the interstellar medium. The source of this turbulence, however, is still poorly understood. Previous work suggests th…

Global dynamics of the interstellar medium in magnetised disc galaxies

Bastian Körtgen, Robi Banerjee, Ralph E. Pudritz +1

Magnetic fields are an elemental part of the interstellar medium in galaxies. However, their impact on gas dynamics and star formation in galaxies remains controversial. We use a s…

A timeline for massive star-forming regions via combined observation of o-HD and ND

A. Giannetti, S. Bovino, P. Caselli +6

Context: In cold and dense gas prior to the formation of young stellar objects, heavy molecular species (including CO) are accreted onto dust grains. Under these conditions H…
