The impact of thermodynamics on gravitational collapse: filament formation and magnetic field amplification
Thomas Peters, Dominik R. G. Schleicher, Ralf S. Klessen +4
Stars form by the gravitational collapse of interstellar gas. The thermodynamic response of the gas can be characterized by an effective equation of state. It determines how gas he…
Generation of strong magnetic fields via the small-scale dynamo during the formation of the first stars
Robi Banerjee, Sharanya Sur, Christoph Federrath +2
Here we summarize our recent results of high-resolution computer simulations on the turbulent amplification of weak magnetic seed fields showing that such fields will be exponentia…
Magnetic field amplification during gravitational collapse - Influence of initial conditions on dynamo evolution and saturation
Sharanya Sur, Christoph Federrath, Dominik R. G. Schleicher +2
We study the influence of initial conditions on the magnetic field amplification during the collapse of a magnetised gas cloud. We focus on the dependence of the growth and saturat…
