The interdependence between density PDF, CMF and IMF and their relation with Mach number in simulations
Arturo Nuñez-Castiñeyra, Matthias González, Noé Brucy +3
The initial mass function (IMF) of stars and the corresponding cloud mass function (CMF), traditionally considered universal, exhibit variations that are influenced by the local en…
Do stars still form in molecular gas within CO-dark dwarf galaxies?
David J. Whitworth, Rowan J. Smith, Simon C. O. Glover +6
In the Milky Way and other main-sequence galaxies, stars form exclusively in molecular gas, which is traced by CO emission. However, low metallicity dwarf galaxies are often `CO-da…
On the relation between magnetic field strength and gas density in the interstellar medium: A multiscale analysis
D. J. Whitworth, S. Srinivasan, R. E. Pudritz +19
The magnetic field strength to gas density relation in the interstellar medium is of fundamental importance. We present and compare Bayesian analyses of the B-n relation for two co…
Inefficient star formation in high Mach number environments II. Numerical simulations and comparison with analytical models
Noé Brucy, Patrick Hennebelle, Tine Colman +2
Predicting the star formation rate (SFR) in galaxies is crucial to understand their evolution and morphology. To do so requires a fine understanding of how dense structures of gas…
Inefficient star formation in high Mach number environments I. The turbulent support analytical model
Patrick Hennebelle, Noé Brucy, Tine Colman
The star formation rate (SFR), the number of stars formed per unit of time, is a fundamental quantity in the evolution of the Universe. While turbulence is believed to play a cruci…
Testing kinematic distances under a realistic Galactic potential
Glen H. Hunter, Mattia C. Sormani, Jan P. Beckmann +15
Obtaining reliable distance estimates to gas clouds within the Milky Way is challenging in the absence of certain tracers. The kinematic distance approach has been used as an alter…
Magnetic field morphology and evolution in the Central Molecular Zone and its effect on gas dynamics
R. G. Tress, M. C. Sormani, P. Girichidis +34
The interstellar medium in the Milky Way's Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is known to be strongly magnetised, but its large-scale morphology and impact on the gas dynamics are not we…
Cloud properties across spatial scales in simulations of the interstellar medium
Tine Colman, Noé Brucy, Philipp Girichidis +9
Molecular clouds (MC) are structures of dense gas in the interstellar medium (ISM), that extend from ten to a few hundred parsecs and form the main gas reservoir available for star…
