On the physical mechanisms governing the cloud lifecycle in the Central Molecular Zone of the Milky Way
S. M. R. Jeffreson, J. M. D. Kruijssen, M. R. Krumholz +1
We apply an analytic theory for environmentally-dependent molecular cloud lifetimes to the Central Molecular Zone of the Milky Way. Within this theory, the cloud lifetime in the Ga…

A general theory for the lifetimes of giant molecular clouds under the influence of galactic dynamics
Sarah M. R. Jeffreson, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen
We propose a simple analytic theory for environmentally-dependent molecular cloud lifetimes, based on the large-scale (galactic) dynamics of the interstellar medium. Within this th…
