TOPoS: I. Survey design and analysis of the first sample
E. Caffau, P. Bonifacio, L. Sbordone +14
The metal-weak tail of the metallicity distribution function (MDF) of the Galactic Halo stars contains crucial information on the formation mode of the first generation of stars. T…
Quantifying Observational Projection Effects Using Molecular Cloud Simulations
Christopher N. Beaumont, Stella S. R. Offner, Rahul Shetty +2
The physical properties of molecular clouds are often measured using spectral-line observations, which provide the only probes of the clouds' velocity structure. It is hard, though…
Light from the Cosmic Frontier: Gamma-Ray Bursts
L. Amati, J. -L. Atteia, L. Balazs +41
Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) are the most powerful cosmic explosions since the Big Bang, and thus act as signposts throughout the distant Universe. Over the last 2 decades, these ultra-…
On column density thresholds and the star formation rate
Paul C. Clark, Simon C. O. Glover
We present the results of a numerical study designed to address the question of whether there is a column density threshold for star formation within molecular clouds. We have simu…
Molecular cooling in the diffuse interstellar medium
S. C. O. Glover, P. C. Clark
We use a simple one-zone model of the thermal and chemical evolution of interstellar gas to study whether molecular hydrogen (H2) is ever an important coolant of the warm, diffuse…
On the temperature structure of the Galactic Centre cloud G0.253+0.016
Paul C Clark, Simon C. O. Glover, Sarah E. Ragan +2
We present a series of smoothed particle hydrodynamical models of G0.253+0.016 (also known as 'The Brick'), a very dense molecular cloud that lies close to the Galactic Centre. We…
