The Formation of Close Binary Systems by Dynamical Interactions and Orbital Decay
Matthew R. Bate, Ian A. Bonnell, Volker Bromm
We present results from the first hydrodynamical star formation calculation to demonstrate that close binary stellar systems (separations $\lsim 10$ AU) need not be formed directly…
The Formation of a Star Cluster: Predicting the Properties of Stars and Brown Dwarfs
Matthew R. Bate, Ian A. Bonnell, Volker Bromm
We present results from the largest numerical simulation of star formation to resolve the fragmentation process down to the opacity limit. The simulation follows the collapse and f…
Formation of the First Supermassive Black Holes
Volker Bromm, Abraham Loeb
We consider the physical conditions under which supermassive black holes could have formed inside the first galaxies. Our SPH simulations indicate that metal-free galaxies with a v…
The Formation Mechanism of Brown Dwarfs
Matthew R. Bate, Ian A. Bonnell, Volker Bromm
We present results from the first hydrodynamical star formation calculation to demonstrate that brown dwarfs are a natural and frequent product of the collapse and fragmentation of…
