Tails of Gravity: Persistence of Star Formation in the CMZ Environment
Linjing Feng, Sihan Jiao, Fengwei Xu +16
We characterize star-forming gas in six molecular clouds (Sgr B1-off, Sgr B2, Sgr C, the 20 km s and 50 km s molecular clouds, and the Brick) in the Galactic central…
Why is the Star Formation Rate Proportional to Dense Gas Mass?
Sihan Jiao, Fengwei Xu, Hauyu Baobab Liu +14
One of the most profound empirical laws of star formation is the Gao-Solomon relation, a linear correlation between the star formation rate (SFR) and the dense molecular gas mass.…
Gravitationally Bound Gas Determines Star Formation in the Galaxy
Sihan Jiao, Jingwen Wu, Zhi-Yu Zhang +13
Stars form from molecular gas under complex conditions influenced by multiple competing physical mechanisms, such as gravity, turbulence, and magnetic fields. However, accurately i…
Physical Properties and HI-to-H2 Transition Across Taurus Linear Edge
Ningyu Tang, Feihang Miao, Gan Luo +5
Studying the atomic-to-molecular transition is essential for understanding the evolution of interstellar medium. The linear edge of Taurus molecular cloud, clearly identified in th…
