The isothermal evolution of a shock-filament interaction
K. J. A. Goldsmith, J. M. Pittard
Studies of filamentary structures that are prevalent throughout the interstellar medium are of great significance to a number of astrophysical fields. Here, we present 3D hydrodyna…
A comparison of shock-cloud and wind-cloud interactions: effect of increased cloud density contrast on cloud evolution
K. J. A. Goldsmith, J. M. Pittard
The similarities, or otherwise, of a shock or wind interacting with a cloud of density contras t were explored in a previous paper. Here, we investigate such interactions w…
A comparison of shock-cloud and wind-cloud interactions: The longer survival of clouds in winds
K. J. A. Goldsmith, J. M. Pittard
The interaction of a hot, high-velocity wind with a cold, dense molecular cloud has often been assumed to resemble the evolution of a cloud embedded in a post-shock flow. However,…
The interaction of a magnetohydrodynamical shock with a filament
K. J. A. Goldsmith, J. M. Pittard
We present 3D magnetohydrodynamic numerical simulations of the adiabatic interaction of a shock with a dense, filamentary cloud. We investigate the effects of various filament leng…
Numerical Simulations of a Shock-Filament Interaction
J. M. Pittard, K. J. A. Goldsmith
We present 3D hydrodynamic adiabatic simulations of a shock interacting with a dense, elongated cloud. We compare how the nature of the interaction changes with the filament's leng…
