A triple-induced merger in T Ori C, solves the proplyd lifetime problem and the curiously young shell of M42
Maite Wilhelm, Alessandro Alberto Trani, Simon Portegies Zwart
There has long been a tension between the stellar ages in the Orion Nebula Cluster and the rapid external photoevaporation of its protoplanetary discs. Recently, the shell of the O…
Transferring Data from a Voronoi Mesh to an Adaptive Cartesian Grid in Pursuit of Self-consistent Top-down Star Formation
Sean C. Lewis, Brooke Polak, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low +5
Unstructured Voronoi mesh simulations offer many advantages for simulating self-gravitating gas dynamics on galactic scales. Adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) can be a powerful tool f…
Protostellar Jets in Star Cluster Formation and Evolution: I. Implementation and Initial Results
Sabrina M. Appel, Blakesley Burkhart, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low +8
Stars form in clusters from the gravitational collapse of giant molecular clouds, which is opposed by a variety of physical processes, including stellar feedback. The interplay bet…
Binary Disruption and Ejected Stars from Hierarchical Star Cluster Assembly
Claude Cournoyer-Cloutier, Jeremy Karam, Alison Sills +2
We simulate mergers between star clusters embedded within their natal giant molecular cloud. We extract initial conditions from cloud-scale simulations of cluster formation and int…
Massive star cluster formation I. High star formation efficiency while resolving feedback of individual stars
Brooke Polak, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low, Ralf S. Klessen +11
The mode of star formation that results in the formation of globular clusters and young massive clusters is difficult to constrain through observations. We present models of massiv…
