Early stages of cluster formation: fragmentation of massive dense cores down to ~1000 AU
Aina Palau, Asunción Fuente, Josep M. Girart +11
In order to study the fragmentation of massive dense cores, which constitute the cluster cradles, we observed with the PdBI in the most extended configuration the continuum at 1.3…
Synthetic observations of first hydrostatic cores in collapsing low-mass dense cores II. Simulated ALMA dust emission maps
Benoît Commerçon, François Levrier, Anaëlle J. Maury +2
First hydrostatic cores are predicted by theories of star formation, but their existence has never been demonstrated convincingly by (sub)millimeter observations. Furthermore, the…
Theories of the massive star formation: a (short) review
Patrick Hennebelle, Benoit Commercon
We briefly review the recent numerical works that have been performed to understand the formation of massive stars. After a brief description of the classical works, we review more…
Synthetic observations of first hydrostatic cores in collapsing low-mass dense cores. I. Spectral energy distributions and evolutionary sequence
Benoit Commercon, Ralf Launhardt, Cornelis P. Dullemond +1
The low-mass star formation evolutionary sequence is relatively well-defined both from observations and theoretical considerations. The first hydrostatic core is the first protoste…
Simulations of protostellar collapse using multigroup radiation hydrodynamics. I. The first collapse
Neil Vaytet, Edouard Audit, Gilles Chabrier +2
Radiative transfer plays a major role in the process of star formation. Many simulations of gravitational collapse of a cold gas cloud followed by the formation of a protostellar c…
