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…
Filamentary Molecular Cloud Formation via Collision-induced Magnetic Reconnection in Cold Neutral Medium
Shuo Kong, Rowan J. Smith, David Whitworth +1
We have investigated the possibility of molecular cloud formation via the Collision-induced Magnetic Reconnection (CMR) mechanism of the cold neutral medium (CNM). Two atomic gas c…
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…
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…
